Surnames: Drouillard Drewior Trombley
Hello
I’m trying to find a connection between Elizabeth Drouillard, Elizabeth Drewior and John B Trombley
I have found several references to Elizabeth Drouillard throughout several genealogy websites including KnowYourKin.com and Ancestry.com but all of them have stopped at her. There is usually no additional information on death or marriages.
I have found a Church record from St. Joseph's Catholic Church of Erie, MI for the marriage of a Trombley (first name is illegible, but may be Jean Baptiste) and Elizabeth Drouillard in 1881. This Church record has Jean Baptiste Drouillard as her father. The mother is illegible but may be a Bomier. I've also found the marriage record of John Trombley and Elizabeth Drewior from 1881 in the Family Marriage Database on Ancestry.com and within the LDS database. I believe the Church and database marriage records are documentation of the same marriage, but I need a tie between the Drouillard and Drewior names.
I can not find John and Elizabeth's marriage registered at the Monroe, MI county clerk's office. I just looked again today. I'd like to verify this marriage with at least two sources before I call it "documented". My first source, the Church records from St Joseph's is pretty illegible, but I can read the “Trombley” surname and “Elizabeth Drouillard’s” name.
If I can link the two names Drouillard & Drewior and the marriage date, I can make the jump from the Drouillard spelling to the Drewior spelling from the database records, and from there to the Trombley marriage. (I think I can anyway).
The death record of Elizabeth Trombley d:1902, has John Drewior and Madeline Anteau as her parents.
I also have seen the marriage record of John A Trombley and Mary Peat (actually spelled Pete) from the county clerk's office. John A Trombley has John and Elizabeth Drewyor listed as his parents, so there is yet one more spelling to Elizabeth's name. I am positive that John A and Mary Pete are my GGrandparents, so John and Elizabeth are my GGGrandparents.
In addition, I have found references to John Druyour (Alias John B Drouillard) in the Civil War pension index. I believe this to be Elizabeth's father. I have several census records with various spellings of Drouillard/Drulard/Drewior/Druyau/Drewyor/Druyour all from the same area in Monroe Countyy with Elizebeth’s name appearing for the first time in the 1860 census. But before 1870, Elizabeth and her family move in with the Lajiness family. Her mother Adelaide marries Paul Lajiness between 1860 and 1870.
I would like to find one more piece of documentation that ties Elizabeth Trombley to the Drouillards. Can anyone help out?
