Trefflé TESSIER et Parmélia LOISELLE
se sont mariés le 14 août 1899 en l'église St-Joseph d'Orléans, Ontario.
Le couple a eu 6 enfants dont 4 ont survécus:
Antoine, Céona, Ménadore et Laurier
Fermier à Ponteix, Saskatchewan, de 1910 à 1936.
«Treffle and his wife Pamelia Loiselle were born at St. Joseph d'Orleans, Ontario, in 1873.
The Easterners were encouraged to move West to a land of opportunity and good fortune.
Treffle
came West to Notre Dame, Saskatchewan, alone, and on December 23, 1909
Treffle obtained his homestead and pre-emption entry. He returned to
Ontario to bring back his family to settle on their newly acquired land.
The eldest son, Wilfrid, died at birth at St. Joseph d'Orleans.
Treffle and Pamelia arrived with four children, of whom the youngest
was two years old at the time. The family settled on the homestead farm
northeast of Ponteix and raised their family. On April 10, 1910, a
boy, also named Wilfrid, died and was buried in the Notre Dame Cemetery.
By May 10, 1910, Treffle had built a frame house 16x20, a stable and
two granaries. By 1912, he owned two horses and seven head of cattle.
In 1933 they retired and moved into town. Their son Laurier took over
the paternal farm. Pamelia passed away on December 26, 1933, at the age
of sixty. Treffle passed away on November 25, 1936, at the age of
sixty-three. They are both interred in the Ponteix Cemetery. From this
union four children survived: Antoine, Ceona, Menadore and Laurier -
separate story».
