Miriam Susan Baribeau

This extension of the family tree represents the genealogical work of Pat Baribeau. I give her credit for inspiring me to push a bit into other branches of my family tree, beyond the the photo album.

There is a lot more data to be found, along with tales of woe and intrigue, in the actual document found here. Murder, insanity and drunken death by train......

m. ~1818

Shafer, Michigan. The DuBois house is in the foreground, with the bar immediately behind.

Paul Napoleon DuBois

Anastasia with seven of her nine daughters: back row Annie, Lottie, Lillie and Mamie, middle: Leah and Edith, and Florence in front.

Anastasia Tessier married Paul Napoleon DuBois on June 10, 1873. They had seven daughters: Anastasia (Annie) Gendron (born 1877), Hanor DuBois (born 1881), Mary (Mamie) Klug (10-12-1882 to 2-25-1983), Ella DuBois (3-1885 to 10-24-1887), Lottie Blair (born 1888), Matilda (Lillie) Herbert (born 1890) and Edith LeMay (born 1893).

Paul DuBois is said to have owned a boarding house, a bar and five more houses in Shafer, Michigan, in addition to five houses in Gladstone, Michigan. He is also said to have been shot in a bar on Christmas Eve, and died three years later, although I'm not sure if his death was as a result of the shooting. After Paul's death, Anastasia ran the boarding house in Shafer to support her daughters. She later married Adelore Laviolette, and had two more daughters: my great grandmother Leah Elizabeth Williams and Florence Catherine Gingrass.
