In the 1877 and 1880 Brooklyn directories Raphael was living at 46 Ryerson. His occupation in 1877 was groceries. And in 1880 was clerk. In the 1881 Brooklyn directory, Raphael’s occupation was liquors located at on Ralph Avenue & Madison. In the 1884 Brooklyn directory Raphael was still involved with liquors, but now at Broadway & Van Buren. In the 1880 and 1900 census records Raphael Chartier says he was born in New York, but that was found not to be true when his baptismal record in L’Acadie, Quebec was found in November 2003. Since Raphael could sign his name, he probably; went to school both in Keeseville and Bourbonnais and possibly even in St. Anne. On June 4, 1862 he was mistakenly enlisted under the name of Robert T. Chartier in the Civil War where he served as a Private First Class in Company F, 69th Regiment, Illinois Volunteers. He was honorably discharged on 6 Oct 1862. Raphael applied for and received an invalid pension from the U.S. Government when his spine was injured after falling out of a 3-story window. He made the application on 6 Aug 1888, and it was approved on January 4 1892 under the Act of Jun 27, 1890. His invalid pension was $12.00 per month. At that time he and his family were living at 285 Fifth Avenue in Brooklyn, and he was employed as a policeman. Because of the injury, Raphael had to resign as a policeman and became a watchman. On his death certificate his occupation is shown as being a customhouse inspector. On 14 January Mary (Winters) Chartier applied for a Widow’s pension . At that time she was living residing at 420 2nd Street in Brooklyn. Mary was paid $20.00 per month commencing on September 8, 1916. It was increased to $40.00 per month on June 4, 1928. When the 1880 census was taken, Raphael was a liquor dealer in Brooklyn. Ray T. Chartier can be found in the Brooklyn, New York Directory for 1888-1890 where the family lived at 397 5th Avenue in Brooklyn, and Ray’s occupation is “police”. When the 1900 census was taken, this family was living at 279 6th Ave. in Brooklyn. Raphel was a custom inspector; Frank was a painter; and Charles was at school. Mary said she was the mother of 8 children with 4 of them living. When the 1910 census was taken, Mary was heading up a family that included her sons, Frank and Charles. They lived on East First St. in Brooklyn. Frank was a bronzer, decorating and Charles was a fire insurance clerk. In this census Mary says she was the mother of 8 children with 4 of them living. When the 1920 census was taken, Mary and her son Francis who was single were living at 413 Greenwood St. in Brooklyn. Francis was a helper at a Torpedo Works.
