I told my uncle Dave (David Harry Grebin), I'd see if I could find any thing out about his ancestors.(Surnames:Grebin, ROUSSEAU, Mousseau)
This is the info I rec'd thus far in two e-mail's from his son Henry:
1ST E-mail
The other point of interest is Grandma Mussa. If I could remember how to use my scanner I would send you the newspaper article that dad gave to me. SO what I will do is give you the highlights. Name was Harriet Rousseau. The picture was taken at her daughters home Mrs. w.J. LA FLAIR at 917 Second Street. In the next door house she was born there 75 years ago and she was on of the first white childern born in the village of ST. ANTHONY, where her family were pioneer setters. I will have to play with the scanner again and see if I send you some stuff. Dad gave me a bunch of old pictures that he really do not know who they are all or why grandpa had them. I know that this is not much help but that is about the best that I can do.
2ND E-mail
Hello My dear Little Cousin,
First of all I have to tell you this, I still work nights and so I have just gotten home and cute little wife is off to work and so if I make mistakes it is because I am tired but will do best not to make any.
Ok here goes on what I got from my dad.
Dad was born on June 28, in not sure of the year but dad is about 67 years old so that makes it somewhere around 1934. The place is 915 second street, MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. Dad was the last Grebin to be born there, 4 generations born at that address.
Dad's sisters are from his mother's first marriage. Dad is only child by them.
Dad's dad, Henry David Grebin Born at same address as my dad.
Dad's mom, Ruth Lucille ( maiden name KINGSLAND) GREBIN she is from CHIPPEWA, or EAU CLARE, WISCONSIN, area.
HENRY DAVID did have a brother HARRY JR. at age of 14 died by a screw driver fell off a ladder.
IDA, ESTER(ESTHER, FAITH, TRESS(TESS, All born in the same house.
Their father and mother----
HARRY GREBIN and FANNY ( -- maiden name ROUSSEAU) GREBIN.
Ok Diane here we go I cannot get my scanner to work for me right now so. First of all dad said that his side of the family kept a lot of the older folks were kept away from the younger ones so things get a little sketchy from here on in.
Mrs. HARRIET MOUSSEAU, " she is one of the first white children born in alittle village called ST. ANTHONY, where her family were pioneers. This must of have been in MINNESOTA someplace. We are related toher some how just not sure. Could be Fanny's sister or mother, or something like that.
Dad also told me that Harry's dad was from Canada and that he drove logging trains for a living. However no name for him or for wife.
That is all that I give for you.
What I have put togeather so far (sketchy at best)
