Seventh Generation  

Emma Magdalena OZIAS Lena ^{(Louis  Boundreau Osias4 Louis  Boundreau3 Osias  Boundreau2, Francois Boundreau2, Michael Boudrot1)}   was born on 29 November 1864 in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. She was christened on 26 March 1865. She died on 8 Nov ember1931 in Los Angeles, California.

According to Mary Louis Miles: Aunt Emma Lena Ozios was a good woman and was born about 1865. Loved by her children and held in high esteem by her neighbors, friends and business people of Grand Forks. A devout Catholic, I never heard an unkind word of anyone from her nor a harsh word to any of her children.  One could not be around her without feeling her kindness and goodness.  The Jewish people of the neighborhood called her first to come and sit with them when they were sick or in an accident and the doctor second.  They seemed to think that they couldn't make it unless Mrs. Dumont held their hand.

She went out to work at an early age (12) perhaps until she married George DUMOND in 1882. To them were born 12-13 sons and daughters. On the 1880 census she is 15 and working as a servant doing housework in a King family in Chippewa Falls. Joseph King was a liquor salesman. MLM: Emma Lena Ozios was born in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin about 1865 (in March if I remember correctly), eldest of 10 children of Louis and Josephine Osios, granddaughter of Joseph ROUSSEAU (who died when Josephine was a child somewhere in Michigan) and if she was baptized in the same church as my mother, Mary Ellen OZIOS POPPE it would be recorded in the Notre Dame Church Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin.      She may have been born March 4-6, 1865. She was born 2 weeks after her folks landed in US coming from perhaps Normandy France.  She went to work at about the age of 12. She had a brother with 3 children who lived in Fresno, California.

Mom (Laura) looked like her. She lived in Lulu's house after Lulu willed  it to her in Los Angeles.  Died there.  She didn't like LA. She lived to celebrate her 50th wedding anniversary about 1931 in LA.  She was tall, slim, dark, but after her kids she was fat.  She met her husband around Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin

Emma married Joseph Stanislas DUMONT, George  son of Augustine DUMONT and Marie Claire Paillant PAYANT on 15 May 1881 in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. Joseph was born on 4 February 1861 in Valleyfield, Canada. He was christened on 5 February 1861 in St. Stanislas, De Kotska, Canada. He died on 7 March 1940 in Los Angeles, California.  He was named Joseph Stanislas when he was born.  Later when he married in the US he went by Stanislas.  Still later and the rest of his life he went by George. He was a horse trader. His second wife in California was Lena. He was 75 when Emma died and it was after that he remarried. He and Emma were  both French. He lived in North. Dakota., Los Angeles. According to Mary Louise Miles, "He worked for his uncle while growing up doing chores:, carried wood, built fires and swept his uncle's tavern every  morning.

It is unknown why he came to the US. He met his wife in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. His sister was Pamela DUMONT. She married a Frenchman named Gangan.(Pronounced "Gone uh." There are many Gangans and Dumonds in the U.S., descendents of the early French families in Canada. In 1913 or 14 he filed a homestead somewhere near Malta, MT or Wolf Point.  Aunt Emma would not leave Grand Forks to go with him due to ill health perhaps and school for the children.  Uncle George Dumond loved his children and wife.  He was a kind man - and too generous with his money when he had some.  His problem was wanderlust and not writing home.  Aunt Emma practically raised the family by herself, always praying for him.  Finally, at 5o years of age his doctor told him if he didn't stop drinking he would not live a year.  He stopped!!!! as of that day and was a different person. Stopped his wandering (made a good living as long as the horses had their day.) and was good to his faithful wife Emma.  I remember when I stayed at their home in Grand Forks. Uncle George always was up early in the morning, had a fire going in the cook stove and always swept the kitchen floor before any of the family came down stairs.

George Dumont were married over 50 years. They lived for a time on a farm in Minn., later moved to Grand Forks, North Dakota. About 1929 they moved to  LA after spending a winter in Seattle. George knew more about horses than any one I ever knew. He took broken down, sore footed dray horses and in weeks would have a stylish high spirited animals. He doctored them, fixed their teeth, etc. Too bad he couldn't have been a vet. He drove many a hard bargain when it came to trading. For horse trading was his life.  I lost contact with the family after Aunt Emma died in 1933 and George remarried.
