Hi my name is Yerva Nelson and I am trying to find out about my grandfather's family. His name is Ernest Lawrence Veilleux and he was born in Fort Benton, Montana U.S. His parents came from Three Rivers in Quebec. This is the information I have on his family:

George Veilleux B Sept 1859 Canada/French
Delia Veilleux (wife) B May 1861 Canada/French
DoraVeilleux (daughter) B Nov 1883 Canada/French
Mary Jane Veilleux (daughter) B Feb 1887 Canada/French
Cecelia Veilleux (daughter) B Aug 1888
Ernest Lawrence Veilleux (son) B May 1895 Montana, U.S.
Married Yerva Marie Wade Harrington in Washingon state
Helen Veilleux (daughter) B Feb 1898 Montana U.S. married
Benjamin Brigger Post Falls, ID U.S.
George Veilleux B Unknown Canada French
William Veilleux B Unknown Canada French
Edward (Eduardo?) Veilleux B Unknown Canada French
Maria Veilleux B Unknown Canada French

I have been told that the children were probably born in Three Rivers all except the youngest two. According to the census record I found for the U.S. (Montana) George and Delia were married for 21 years so they would have been married in approximately 1878/1879.

Any help you could give me on this family would be greatly appreciated. I don't speak French so if you could respond in English it would be very much appreciated. Thank you and God Bless for your help in advance.
