MCDONALD

I am tracing a family (my own) that lived in Greenville, Maine from about 1902 until after WWII or longer. Alexander McDonald, born about 1873 in Chatham, New Brunswick, CAN, married Helene J. Pease born 1 Nov 1881, in Chesuncook on 21 Feb 1898. The ceremony was in Greenville although both lived in Chesuncook at the time and the priest was Fr. Forest from Jackman. Alexander and Helene moved to Greenville, probably the Junction, after 1900. Helene (my grandmother) lived in Greenville (Junction) from about 1900 until her death in 1944.

Their eight children, in order of birth were Angus Jules McDonald, Christopher S. McDonald (both born Chesuncook), Lillian Mae McDonald Elsemore (born Greenville as were the subsequent children), Priscilla Elmire McDonald Lawrence, Lewellyn Reginald McDonald, Earl Leon and Mearl Vivian (twins) McDonald, and Alvin McDonald. Helene married a Lewis Gauvin of Greenville in 1915 and had a daughter. Then Helene married a Walter Boothman of Greenville in 1920 and had a daughter.
