S
FRED AND CORA GROZELLE AND THEIR CHILDREN: OUR PARENTS AS CHILDREN
Hello there and Welcome!
JOIN ME
Join me on my quest to learn more about the generation of people that came before us.
This website came about after I found time to review an album containing pictures of people from the 1800s.This album was given to me by a cousin of my mothers. The pictures were of the Brown and Armstrong families. Our families are descendants of Sarah Brown and Alexander Armstrong. My mother’s grandparents.
I also wanted to share the story related to the picture of the Grozelle family pictured above. My father, one of the children in the picture above married Cora Farrell and even though we are called Grozelle we are related to Medard Chourte Des Groseilliers who came to Canada from France in the 1600s. To learn more about Des Groseilliers click the button below.
I want to share the many photographs and videos that I have of relatives of my family. These photos include aunts, uncles, and cousins from the 1930 to today. I will be using old documents, text, videos and slideshows to tell this history.
Take the Time Now to Learn About Our Families of the 1800s.
Featured in two Videos Below
The first video features the black and white photos I scanned from the album. The second video features the same photos only this time they have been coloured.
My approach to sharing the pictures I am so fortunate to have is to make them into videos or slideshows.
VIEW YOUR FIRST VIDEO NOW
John D. Brown and Ann Brown are our great, great grandparents on the Amstrong side. That is Pearl Grozelle’s ancestors.
VIDEO IN BLACK AND WHITE
Video contains the originals from the old album that I scanned and improved.
This video shows you our great, great grandparents and others dressed in the fashions of the 1800s. They appear stoic, stiff and awkward.
MY HOPE
My hope is that after YOU view this video you will be enticed to explore this website to learn more about the history of our family. Clicking on the button below will take you to Ancestors. “Ancestors” have videos of all the families.
Hopefully, I will show how the union of five families through marriages resulted in our generation. Click on the button below and view the ten marriages images. The couple are side by side.
