    Although it is not done, the Chazy Lake Sourcebook is 92 pages mostly on the children of Sullivan King.  There are not many pictures, but there are some useful genealogies and scans of obituaries and other material.

    chazy-lake-sourcebook-sept-2007

    there is information in here about Lucy Columbe.  The Columbe name appears with many spellings.  Lots of Columbes are buried at Redford and there are also some Colombes (which is often a separate family, but in the case of Redford I am not sure). 

    Since I’m thinking Fourniers tonight the Fournier connection is that Lucy Columbe, mother of Frank Fournier of Chazy Lake is sister to Marie Columbe, mother of the wife of Xavier King of Chazy Lake.  So Frank and Xavier were not relatedand therefore Frank and Phebe were not related.  When Xavier’s sister (Phebe) married Frank they became brothers-in-law.  Then Frank and Xavier’s sons… Clifford and Howard… were first cousins because Sullivan King was their Grandfather; and second cousins because Joseph Columbe was  great grandfather to both Howard and Clifford .  .It is clear in a genealogical chart but difficult to see when written in words.

    delvia-lacross-nes-clipping

             I was looking through my Ancestry hints and ran across Delvia Mary LaCross, wife of Eleazer Dinelle.  I did a quick search on NNYLN and found reference to a son killed in World War 2.

    There is a reason that Delvia is in my database.  She is the full sister of Della King LaCroix adopted daughter of Sullivan King.

    david-fournier-unrelated1I’ve avoided posting a wife for Edward Fournier on the Ancestry site because I can’t find the documentation that shows he married Lucy Coulombe.  My earlier research shows that he and Lucy are the parents of Frank Fournier who married Phebe King and are grandparents of Clifford Fournier.

    Today I added a different, and unrelated, Frank Fournier to my ancestry tree following Frank, son of David and Mary (mary died and David remarried Julia).  This Frank was born 1878 instead of 1869 and lived in West Chazy and Beekmantown instead of Chazy Lake.

    This obit shows his first wife is Mary Emery and that Frank had a sister; David’s second wife was Julia Brothers and there were a number of children as listed.

    Chances are this Frank is a distant relative of our Frank but they are not the same.

    Just posted the outline of a Chazy News Blog for old time news.  I’ll be putting my newspaper clippings there and if you have any you want to post go ahead and edit the posting so that everything is in date order and please write a little summary related to the article that gives a tie-in to the family doings.  Also if you have the time please write tags in the tag line that give the names of people in the article.  If you don’t have time, I’ll try to catch up on the names when I can.

     Also new is the Jean(Marie)elogy blog which I thought we’d reserve for straightening out names, rectifying those discrepancies we find in published genealogy and generally discussing the theories we’re pursuing that seem to have some proof underlying them (as opposed to just general thoughts that we want to follow up on which I think belong in this blog)

    This blog of course is new, and it is for linking our posts, posting our crazy ideas and leaving to do lists and generally chatting back and forth about what we’re doing and technical and research problems we might be having.
