    • Name Joseph CHARTIER 


      • When the 1860 census was taken, this family was living in Grand Rapids (Wood), Wisconsin. Joseph was a “sawyer”. When the 1870 census was taken, they are found in the Town of Rudolph, Wisconsin. It looks like the census taker spelled the name “Schortir”. Living in Joseph’s household when this census was taken were his wife and these children, Louis, Dennis, Henry, Georgiana, and Delena. Their daughter Rosaline Richards and John B. Richards, age 32 were also in the household. When the 1880 census was taken the family was living in Port Edwards, Wisconsin. In this census their son Amos was also living with them whereas he was not living with the family when the 1870 census was taken. Amos’ marital status is checked as single whereas his brother Joseph’s marital status is checked as married. It is known that Joseph never married so it appears that the census taker made a mistake in checking off the marital status of these two brothers. Amos not being with the family in 1870 is important because according to family tradition he married a Chippewa Indian and lived somewhere in Canada. Why Amos shows up with his father’s family in the 1880 census is not known, but he may have come back for a visit or to work. In the 1900 U.S. census Joseph says the family immigrated to the U.S. in 1852. Since their son, Joseph was born in St-Lin, Quebec in 1852; they probably made the move shortly after his birth. Exactly where they moved to in 1852 isn’t known at this time. When the 1900 census was taken, Joseph and Constance were living at 500 Cleveland in Merrill City. Living in Joseph and Constance’s household were their unmarried son, Joseph and the family of their youngest child, Frank Chartier.
