According to the “Mooers Town Records Book” we have the following:

Manor/Menard are common names in this area. Hope this is helpful.

George was my father-in-law’s (Frank’s) brother.

Years ago my mother-in-law made us copies of Frank’s family:

Under the “Children of John Deyo” was “George married Alixa Manor” (Manor/Menard) These names are common in this area. One is french and the other is english.

I hope this is helpful and that it goes through this time!

I will add this information to the family tree. I do believe that much of the family rests in that cemetery. I’d love to find Joseph & Julie Deo’s graves or better still birth information. Maybe that will come. (I’d love copies of the info if that’s possible….)

In the meantime, I have had some wonderful success in tracking Exina’s family. Once I prove out the links( this weekend I hope), I believe I should be able to get the family back to the late 1700′s and possibly all the way back into France. Je me souviens!

George Deyo died in Altona, NY on Oct. 17, 1942 and was buried on Oct. 19 in Holy Angels Cemetery in Altona.

There isn’t a stone at the grave site. Maybe it was just a wooden cross which didn’t last or maybe they didn’t have any marker at all.

George’s son Lawrence was my uncle (he married my aunt Yvonne) and I remember them going to Mass. to visit relatives.

I obtained this information from a newspaper clipping.

In re: to Joseph and Julia Deyo
This is information that I found in a couple of books that were copied from original files by friends. Joseph and Julia were my husband’s ggrandparents.

Hope this is helpful.
