Arlis,
I was very happy to see your inquiry.
Michael Dowd was my great-grandfather. He was married to Emerentienne Demers. They are buried at St. Romain's Church in Hemmingford. Emerentienne died in 1954, and Michael died sometime in the 1940's.
Their daughter Helen was my grandmother. b.1903 in Burlington Vermont, d. 1970 in Plattsburgh, NY. From 1925 to 1950 she lived on the Leahy farm in Hemmingford, Quebec with her husband, my grandfather Thomas Leahy.
Helen and Thomas had 5 children:
Bernard (1925 - present)
Raymond (1929 - present)
Bernice (died in the late 1980's)
Shirley (living)
Carl (1945 - )
Please email me so I can learn more about the origins of Michael Reginald Dowd.... I do not know where he came from, etc.
