Biography

Louis was born 9 Jan 1858, in Millbury, Worcester, Massachusetts.[1] He is listed as entry no. 1197, and the town clerk appears to have written his name as "Lewis Lapolian." The parents are also given the surname "Lapolian." However, a line-by-line review of the birth register for Millbury (1858) reveals no other male child with this birth date, and the information listed for his parents, including their names (Charles & Elizabeth), places of birth (Canada) and Charles's occupation as "moulder" all conform to information found in other records for this family.
