Notes |
- The St. Antoine church is located in Monroe Mi. on the River Raison.
This Parrish has changed names and is now going by the name of St.
Mary's.
We find Joseph listed as a son of James Louis and Julia in the French
family of the Detroit River area. We find no record of him in
Mackinaw Co. during the 1850 or 1860 census. We did locate a land
record that might be him on file at the Archives located in the Mich.
State Library, Lansing, Mi. The land record is a grant of land given
in Baraga Co., L'anse to Indians and is dated 1854. In checking the
1860 census for that county, we find a Joseph Perio residing in a
home occupied by several persons, most of whom are in the mining
profession. He lists himself as age 28 yrs. Since our Joseph was born
Dec. 1830, he would have been 29 yrs at the time this census was
taken, and therefore is a possibility of being the same person. We
have no proof of this , however.
