Thanks for the information. I actually just stumbled across same recently and no one in the family knew about this marriage. It appears that my Grandfather had more than one secret. He had run off, and was on the run,with my 16 year old Grandmother evidently within a year of his marriage to Ethel. My Aunt Lillian was born in 1913 in Fort Wayne, Indiana, my Dad (John)in 1915 in Toledo, Ohio and Harold (AKA Nelson)also in Ohio. He did return to Adams around the time of my aunt Agnes's (AKA Mildred) birth in 1919. I also recently came across a David Bourdeau married to a Marie Riel with a son Alfred about the correct time frames in Chateauguay PQ Canada which is where my Grandfather was born. All had variations of the Name Burdo Bourdeau & Bordeau.
