Biographie

Joseph Morin naquit en 1820 à Sainte-Marie, Bas-Canada, de Basile Morin et de Marie Thibodeau.^[1]

Si le Joseph Morin dans ce document est celui-là, alors en 1842, à l'âge de 22 ans, Joseph s'enrôla dans l'armée américaine et fut stationné pendant un an à Tamarack, New York, au nord-est d'Albany.^[2]

En 1843 à Saint-Sylvestre, Canada-Est, Joseph épousa Marie Vallières, fille de François Vallières et de Marie Filion de la paroisse de St-Sylvestre.^[3] Selon le recensement de 1851, ils eurent au moins quatre enfants.^[4] (Référence d'Ancestry parce que l'image du site Census Search n'est pas correcte.) Marie Vallières décéda en juin 1850.

En septembre 1850 à Sainte-Marie, Joseph épousa Marie Pageot (également Pageau), fille de Charles Pageau et d'Archange Hallé, aussi de Sainte-Marie.^[5] Le recensement suivant montre Joseph et Marie avec quatre enfants de Joseph. Joseph travaillait comme charpentier.^[4] Il n'y a pas de correspondence avec le recensement de 1861.

Joseph migra aux États-Unis. On ne sait pas l'an de migration, ni si Marie était avec lui. Elle décéda avant le recensement des É-U de 1870, qui montre Joseph à Stronach, Michigan, sans Marie, avec un fils du mariage avec Marie Vallières et quatre enfants du mariage avec Marie Pageot.^[6]

Joseph décéda à Stronach en 1877. L'acte de décès n'est pas retrouvé.

Biography

Joseph Morin was born in 1820 in Sainte-Marie, Lower Canada, to Basile Morin and Marie Thibodeau.^[1]

If the Joseph Morinin this document is this one, then in 1842, at 22 years old, Joseph enlisted in the United States Army and was stationed for a year in Tamarack (today Brunswick), New York, northeast of Albany.^[2]

In 1843 in Saint-Sylvestre, Canada East, Joseph married Marie Vallières, daughter of François Vallières and Marie Filion from the parish of St-Sylvestre.^[3] According to the 1851 census, they had at least four children.^[4] (Reference from Ancestry because the image at the Census Search site is not correct.) Marie Vallières died in June 1850.

In September 1850 in Sainte-Marie, Joseph married Marie Pageot (also Pageau), daughter of Charles Pageau and Archange Hallé, also from Sainte-Marie.^[5] The following census shows Joseph and Marie with four of Joseph's children. Joseph was working as a carpenter.^[4] There is no match with the census of 1861.

Joseph migrated to the United States. The year of migration is not known, nor whether Marie was with him. She died before the census of 1870, which shows Joseph in Stronach, Michigan, without Marie, with a son from her marriage to Marie Vallières and four children from this marriage to Marie Pageot.^[6]

Joseph died in Stronach in 1877. The death record has not been found.
