Part 833p – Smith Groh Genealogy – Updated Parisé Descendant Chart - No. 7

Good Day,

My genealogy and ancestry search and research continues. All-things-being-equal I will have to create a new and third Parisé Descendant Chart, or at least provide magnifying glasses with my work. My new update to my Parisé Descendant Chart now includes CK’s 6-times great-grandparents Michel and Rosalie (née Roussi) Parisey.

Here is the new updated Parisé Descendant Chart.

As you can note, the surname, from the current records that I have located is presented as Parisey. We now have seven forms of the surname listed – Pariza; Parizo; Parasaya; Parisaya; Parisé; Parisée; and Parisey. The name, the furthest back in time that I have found is both Parisé and Parisey. Pronunciation of these two is basically the same – Pah-ree-zay.

To continue in my search I have discovered data that may lead back to CK’s 9-times great-grandparents. I will reveal the details when I find a good source of information. If you have any details, information, data, ideas, or thoughts, please feel free to contact me.

Enjoy,

Jim

Part 832p – Smith Groh Genealogy – 1798 Baptism – GGGGG-Grandfather Michel Barthélemi Parisey

Good Day,

In my search and research of the genealogy of my family’s ancestry, at times I luck out and am able to discover more than one corroborating document. In this instance, I have discovered another 1798 Baptism Register entry for CK’s ggggg-grandfather Michel Barthélemi Parisey.  I am glad that there is more than one entry as I am able to compare the entries to assist in the determination of the actual details.

I have discovered two Baptism Registrations.  Both of the Registrations are from the Drouin Collection. According to Ancestry.ca there are approximately 25 million English and French records in the Collection. They include Vital Records; (baptism, marriage and burial), notarial, miscellaneous, and also a compilation of church records from Quebec, Ontario, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and various New England states.

The first Baptism Registration that I recorded, in Part 829p, is of a Register of Notre Dame de la Purifatin. In the Ancestry.ca database it is Image 12 of 37.

The second one, presented here is, I believe from the St. Bonaventure, Quebec, Civil Registration. The above and  following are the cover page and introduction of the Register.

Part 831s – Smith Groh Genealogy – GGGG-Grandfather Lawrence St. Thomas – 1892 US Naturalization

Good Day,

In the search and research of the genealogy and ancestry of the St. Thomas Family I have been looking for some information and documentation that will prove from where in Canada the St. Thomas’s originated. According to a number of US Federal Censuses CK’s gggg-grandparents Lawrence and Marie Louise (née Sauvé) St. Thomas and their eldest two children; ggg-grandmother Marie Louise (née St. Thomas) Parisé and ggg-granduncle Joseph Lawrence St. Thomas were all born in Canada… somewhere.

I have since found a record of the Index to Naturalization Petitions for U.S. District & Circuit Courts of Northern District of Illinois and Immigration and Naturalization Service District 9, 1840-1950 for gggg-grandfather Lawrence St. Thomas. The Date the Certificate was Issued indicated is 18 October 1892. All-things-being-equal gggg-grandfather Lawrence had been in the United States since around about 1881.

The Index record does state that he was born in Canada, but it does not narrow down to the location. All-things-being-equal gggg-grandmother Marie Louise, ggg-grandmother Marie Louise, and ggg-granduncle Joseph Lawrence all become American citizens at the same date.

From the National Archives - In innumerable cases under the 1855 law, an immigrant woman instantly became a U.S. citizen at the moment a judge's order naturalized her immigrant husband. If her husband naturalized prior to September 27, 1906, the woman may or may not be mentioned on the record which actually granted her citizenship. Her only proof of U.S. citizenship would be a combination of the marriage certificate and her husband's naturalization record. Prior to 1922, this provision applied to women regardless of their place of residence. Thus if a woman's husband left their home abroad to seek work in America, became a naturalized citizen, then sent for her to join him, that woman might enter the United States for the first time listed as a U.S. citizen.

It can be stated that this is the time that the St. Thomas Line became American citizens. I am still searching for the St. Thomas family and their Canadian origins.

If you have any ideas, comments, questions, or thoughts, please feel free to contact me.

Enjoy,

Part 830ps - Smith Groh Genealogy - Update - Groh Descendant Charts

Good Day,

Just a short note this morning to announce that I have updated and created two new Descendant Charts. The two descendant Charts are specific to the Parisé and St. Thomas Families. Both Descendant Charts are connected via the marriage of CK's ggg-grandparents Pierre Léandre (aka Leo) and Marie Louise (née St. Thomas) Parisé (aka Pariza).

You can access both, and all other Groh related Descendant Charts, by the pull-down menus under the Groh Header on every A Genealogy Hunt page.

Part 828s – Smith Groh Genealogy – St Thomas Family – New Descendant Chart

Good Day,

The organization of paths and sources of data and information of the St. Thomas Family continues. My research and search has now led me to possibly understand that CK’s gggg-grandparents Lawrence and Marie Louise St. Thomas, and their eldest two children, ggg-grandmother Marie Louise (née St. Thomas) Parisé and ggg-granduncle Joseph Lawrence St. Thomas emigrated in the early 1880s from Ontario in Canada to Wisconsin, USA. I am still searching for credible documentation that will provide me the details or at least some clues.

From the information that I have been able to gather to date, I have created a new St. Thomas Family Descendant Chart.

Please Note: All information on this Descendant Chart is based on current and available information. It may change as new and more correct data is discovered.

Key - The added letters and numbers to the right of a name in the Descendant Chart, for example, C-P85p, can be used to locate an image of some of the documents as they appears in A Genealogy Hunt - http://agenealogyhunt.blogspot.com/; B = Birth; C = Baptism/Christening; M = Marriage; D = Death or Burial; W = Will; I = Item of Interest; 823s = Part 823s. The small letter “s” represents a surname; in this example s = St. Thomas.

New and updated data may be entered in red. A red or blue and yellow symbol represents the actual blood line.

If you have any data or information, question, comment, or idea, please feel free to contact me.

Enjoy,

Jim
