I'm also researching Montville of Central MA.
My grandfather's mother was Rose Montville sister of Peter and Elizabeth. Their parent's were Agnes and Joseph Montville and all of the census records seem to say that Agnes and Joseph immigrated from Lithuania to Cheshire County NH and had their three children. They then moved to Fitchburg, MA (my hometown). My grandfather is Francis Gonynor (still living and almost 83)he knows very little of his family because his mother died when he was 6 (his Mother was Rose) and his father surrendered him to a boy's home in Walpole. I wonder if the Peter you mentioned was Rose's sister Peter?

Thanks!

Hi,

I'm not related but this should help you.

Gilbert Montville (age 26) married Mary Lovely (age 18) on 24 Jul 1870 in Auburn, MA
His parents are Michel and Mary.
Her parents are Felix and Sophia
He was born in Canada, She was born in Southbridge, MA

Here are a few things that you will need to investigate.
Montville may not be the original name, it may be Mandeville, but I'm not 100% sure. Maybe your family could shed some light on that.
As Mary Lovely, usually Lovely would be Lamoureux, but on her burial record it is Lusignan. That is something else you will need to verify.

Hope that helps you.

David

DianeWiswall — 2005-09-02 12:30:26Z

Please contact me about your MONTVILLEs. This is one of the variations of spelling of my great-grandfather's last name MONVILLE / deMONTREVILLE. These MONVILLEs were in NY for a time; they eventually settled in MO and were originally from French Canada. My email address is: jtwiswall@earthlink.net and my name is Diane WISWALL.

Re: montville

DianeWiswall — 2005-09-02 12:30:26Z

My great-grandfather was Edward MONVILLE (also spelled: MONTVILLE,MONTEVILLE, MONTREVILLE, d'MONTREVILLE, deMONTREVILLE, etc.) His father (my gggrandfather) was Frederick MONVILLE (etc.). As I understand it, he was married at least twice (probably 3 times?). Gggpa Fred MONVILLE was born in 1817 in French Canada and died in 1919 (yes he was almost 103!).
My gggma was Adelia TACHEY (spelling of TASCHEY unsure but sounded like "ta-SHAY"). Adelia, b. 1827, was the daughter of Joseph and Sophie (?) TACHEY, both born in Montreal. Joseph died in Kittyville, NY (Keeseville???) and Sophie was buried in Burlington, VA. The TACHEY's were also French Canadian.
Adelia and Fred had two children I know of: Lavinia and Edward (my ggpa, b. 1849). Adelia died when Ed was about 4 or 5 years old. His dad Fred then remarried a school-teacher in/from NY, with the last name of ? STACEY, who taught Ed and Lavinia (nickname DAULPHINE) English.
Fred and later Ed worked for the RRs. The family moved west and eventually settled in Hannibal, Marion Co., MO. Ed married Bertha MUELLER/MILLER. We don't know what happened to Lavinia. Do you think there is any chance your Fred MONTVILLE could be my gggpa MONVILLE?
Also, ggpa Ed and Bertha had four children: Frederick, Franklin, Lillian, and Emma. This son Frederick went to CA as a young man. I don't know much about him but think he died young, perhaps in one of the wars?
One other Frederick MONVILLE in our family is gggpa Frederick MONVILLE's dad. He was French Canadian, also. I calculate he was born about 1787. This MONVILLE line lives a long time, usually into their 90s or sometimes early 100s.
Please contact me to tell me if any of this sounds familiar. I would love to find out more about this side of my family. My email address is: jtwiswall@earthlink.net .

MONVILLE in NY

DianeWiswall — 2005-09-02 12:30:26Z

I am seeking info on two families: MONVILLE and TACHET. The name MONVILLE has also been spelled deMONTREVILLE and various other ways MONTEVILLE, MONTVILLE, etc.). The TACHET is an attempt to spell a French-Canadian name that was *pronounced* "tah-SHAY."

Adelia TACHET was born abt. 1827 in "Kittyville," NY, according to family lore. I haven't been able to locate "Kittyville," but someone has suggested that perhaps it was actually "Keeseville," NY. What county is Keeseville in? Does anyone have a website to access records there such as births, marriages, deaths? [The pronounciation "Kittyville" is from the memory of Adelia's young son Edward, who spoke French-Canadian rather than English as his primary language.]
Adelia TACHET married Frederick MONVILLE/deMONTREVILLE, had two children: Edward (b. 1849) and Lavinia, and then by 1858 she had passed away. Frederick (nickname "Frenchie") then married a woman from NY who was a schoolteacher [unsure of maiden name, may have been STACEY]. The family then moved west about the time of the goldrush, stopping for awhile in IL and then moving onto Hannibal, Marion Co., MO, where they decided to stay. Fred and later son Ed both worked for the railroads, Fred as an engineer and Ed as coalman. Both men lived to be in their late 90s and beyond. Ed's daughter lived to 99 1/2 as well and was my grandmother.

This family has been especially difficult to trace. ANY help will be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Re: montville/montvila

hubalbd — 2004-08-21 16:36:19Z

I'm tracking my Vinesky ancestors & we may be able to collaborate as they include Montvilles. My grandfather John Vinesky & his wife were living with George Montville when my father Dan Vinesky was born in 1923. Mary Montville was John's Aunt. Apparently so was an Anna McClain - whom he was living with in 1920. I do not know what happened to her, although it's possible she died between 1920 & 1930, as her son William McClain was also living with George & Mary in 1930.

Email me, & maybe we can meet & talk further.

Re: montville/montvila

2004-05-02 03:57:13Z

You mentioned the Titanic. I had a distant relative - a Montvila - who died on the Titanic. I think his name was Joseph. Check the Titanic passenger list online - you'll find him listed in 2nd class. His cousin married my great-grandmother's sister - Mary Luksuite.

Re: montville/montvila

2004-05-02 03:52:18Z

I know the message was posted 2 yrs ago, but I'm looking of info about George Montville (Montvila), who lived in Cleveland, Ohio - St George's RC parish. I believe his wife (Mary) was my grandmother's sister. They apparently came from the Russian-Poland gubernia of Suwalki somewhere around 1890. Contact me if you have any info.

Re: MONVILLE in NY

2002-11-08 01:09:28Z

Diane, similar experience. "Catesville", NY was given as the birthplace of John LeFore DAVID b. 1874. I finally figured out that it was Cadyville, Clinton Co., NY. He MAY have been the son of Basile DAVID and Lucie MONTVILLE/MANDEVILLE, etc. Cadyville and Keeseville are both in Clinton Co. These families were French-Canadian. John had known siblings Emily, Basil, and Carrie, and probably others. MANDEVILLE given names: Scholastique, Baptiste, and Catherine. Surname ST. MICHEL possible connection. Anything familiar?

2000-11-17 16:22:59Z

ED, I have montvila on my paternal grandmothers side. Her mother, Jieva M, one of ten children born of mykolas M and two wives was born 1864; the youngest 1883. Most of them but not all came to this country, mostly settled in Cleveland, Ohio, though some went to " the coal fields of PA" or to Chicago. From the info you gave they appear unrelated, but----- Mine were born around Marijampole, Lith; I've heard the names of towns such as Sasnava and Kantalis'kis.
I vaguely remember seeing a reference to a George M but at the moment I can't come up with it. also a Petras M who wrote about his brother Jouzas who died on the titanic. These last three appear unrelated to mine.

Montville History

phonicsmonty — 2002-09-24 00:58:20Z

I'm having a very difficult time researching the history of the Montville's. Does anyone have any ideas? We're from central mass, but as one of the few around here I'm not making headway in my research. I have figured that their are different variations of spellings, but which is the right one? Is Mandeville also a possibility? Any help would be great.

Thanks,

Brian

Re: Montville History

AndieHarris73 — 2003-01-20 20:42:36Z

That surname is French. Perhaps your earliest antecedents were French Huguenots. You said somewhere that you're in cental Massachusetts? I think it's very likely that they were Huguenots. Just for fun I typed in Jean-Baptiste Montville at the search site of rootsweb.com and got pages of Montville info . There are several entries also for "Charles Montville" and a lot of others. World Ancestry Tree seems to have an abundance of Montvilles. I hope some of them are your's. Tell me how it works out.

Re: montville/montvila

chartist — 2004-01-13 16:00:17Z

My name is Charlene (Danevicz) Truszkowski
I live in Grand Rapids Michigan.
I am the great-grandaughter of Anton and Eva Montvila.
They had two children, (maybe more) that I know of.
Peter and Magdalena (my Grandmother).

My Grandmother married Adam Danevicz on June 20, 1919.
They had 3 sons, Edward (my father), John and Thomas.

Peter had three children - two of whom lived in Chicago. Their names were Eva Montville/Montvila and George Montville/Montvila. His other son, Peter, possibly lived in California.

It seems interesting that in the story of Rev. Juozas Montvila (b. January 3, 1885), who died on the Titanic, his mother's name was Magdalena and his brother's name was Petra. Which, as you see above, are the names of my grandmother(b. Feb. 4, 1900) and her brother. This leads me to speculate that there is surely a family connection.

I am trying to discover the relatives of my great-grandparents Anton and Eva. Anton died on Sep. 27, 1929.

I have the deed to the house Anton built at 1254 Muskegon Street NW, Grand Rapids MI.

If anyone can help I would be so grateful.
Thank You, Charlene Danevicz/Truszkowski

I know this is a few years old now, but if you are still there, George Montville is my Great Grandfather and I too am trying to track back into Lithuania. Ran into a second cousin doing similar searches. Any other info you have would be great!

hubalbd — 2004-08-21 16:22:52Z

HELP!

I'm looking into the Cleveland, OH Montville family and their connection to the Vinesky (Visnauskas) family. We also came to Cleveland, via PA (Wilkes-Barre). The family is originally from Lithuania (possibly Poland, now..) - from whaqt was known in 1900 as the Suwalki Gubernia of Russian Poland. My great-grandmother was Agniezka (Agnes, in English) Luksys. Her sister, Mary, married George Montville. Apparently they had another sister, whose married name was Anna McClain - my grandfather was living with her in 1920, and with George Montville's family in 1930.
Email me at hubalbd@netzero.com with any info - or if you want to talk further...
