2. | Napoleon Tetrault was born in 1869 in Chatham, Ontario, Canada; and died. Notes:
From THE FRENCH QUARTER by Ron Graham:
Napoleon Tetrault was born in 1869 in Chatham in the southwest corner of Ontario, not far from Detroit, the son of a shoe merchant and an alderman. At the age of twenty "Nap" moved to Montreal to make his fortune. He did so by making shoes. Thanks to political connections with the Conservative government he picked up the major contracts to manufacture boots for the Canadian and French armies during the first world war, and Tetrault Shoes became one of the largest shoe companies in Canada. Napoleon became a millionaire.
Naploeon Tetrault liked the "good life", and he acted and spent like a millionaire. He spent and gambled both in America and France, and eventually his diastrous habits and speculations in the French franc ruined him.

From THE FRENCH QUARTER by Ron Graham: P 158
"Guillaume was born in Griffintown, the notorious shantytown between the river and the railway tracks of Montreal. He was the ninth of eleven children and the third son of an illiterate shoemaker named Pierre Moncel (sometimes Moncell, Monsel or even Leure' as a variation on the origional name of Pierre's grandfather Charles Leret, the soldier who had come to New France shortly before the British conquest).
"My great- grandfather had picked up some education from the priests, some English from the Irish kids, and went to work sweeping floors in a bank.. He was listed as a clerk when he was twenty-seven and asked for the hand of Alphonsine Fauteux. They were married at Notre-Dame on January 10, 1871, fifty-one years to the day after Guilliame's own parents were married there."
With the help of his in-laws and their family connections, Guilliame was eventually appointed to the board of the bank where he once swept floors. He held esteemed positions on many boards and organizations, and eventually became truly wealthy through real estate holdings in the old Montreal area. In addition to his own children he cared for his wife's widowed sister, the sister's daughter and grandaughter.
Guilliame and Alphonsine had seven children in all - five surviving to adulthood, and two children who died in their youth - a boy who was killed in a freak fall in a haystack, and a girl who succumed to pneumonia.

14. | Louis-Gonzague Fauteux was born about 1825; and died. Notes:
From THE FRENCH QUARTER by RON GRAHAM: P148
"In 1867 my great-great grandfather Louis-Gonzague Fauteux was a well-to-do merchant with an office on Rue Saint-Francis-Xavier in Old Montreal and a home on Rue de La Gauchetiere. He had been born in a village on the north shore of the St Laurence toward Trois-Rivieres. His father, his grandfather, his great-grandfather and his great-great grandfather had all been named Pierre Fauteux after the first Fauteux to come to New France, from Normandy around 1666, and his older brother Pierre had married Laurent Laroux's grandaughter in 1842. Through that connection Louis had met and married my ancestress Hermine Leduc, Hugh Munro's granddaughter."
