Lamereaux-Bruguiere-Conger Connection

[Spirit of the Owl Woman]

I just came across an interesting 1860 US Fed. Census whereby Georgianna Northrup (my Great-Grandmother) is 16 yrs old and is listed as the niece of Louis and Rose Lamereaux. This is the first time since I have been working on the family tree that I have come across relatives in the Lamereaux branch of our Dakota tiospayes.

I am wondering who Rose was prior to marrying Louis and what the connection is with Georgianna, my great grandmother, so I may possibly be able add more family to our tree. The more the merrier, I always say!
Georgianna's parents and the pasted copy of 1860 doc. are the following:

Julia Bruguiere- Granddaughter of War Eagle
Born: 15 Nov 1844
Fort Vermillion, Dakota Territory
Died: 10 May 1934
Charles Mix County, South Dakota

and

Cassius Milan Conger
Born: 1851
Dubuque, Dubuque, Iowa, USA

1880 US FEDERAL CENSUS
Name: Louis Lamereaux
Home in 1880: Omadi, Dakota, Nebraska
Age: 29
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1851
Birthplace: Canada
Relation to Head of Household: Self (Head)
Spouse's Name: Rose
Occupation: Farmer
Marital Status: Married
Race: White
Gender: Male

Household Members: Name Age
Louis Lamereaux 29
Rose Lamereaux 32
Meddie Lamereaux 4
Samuel Lamereaux 2
Georgeanna Northrup 16 - Niece

I should have given you all this information the first time and I apologize; it was late and I was just so tired. My family tree is like a full time job for me right now and I am putting 10 to 15 hours a day on the research, plus documenting all 522 Dakota people thus far. I have relatives who are living on the reservation and I don't even know them. I can't wait to go home and meet them all. But, first I would like to get to know all my ancestors and what a story they are "telling" me since I started this project.
Thank you so much for your time and consideration on this particular matter.

My records indicate that Julia Bruguier first was wed to Cassius Conger. they had a daughter named mercy. Iwas unable to find any more information her.
Julia's 2nd spuse was Mr. Northrup, with whom she had Georgianna.

i would suggest looking for the Chief War Eagle tree that was posted several months ago on our website. This may help resolve your puzzle.

Thank you for all your help. I already have all of that information. And as far as the War Eagle family tree posted on this website which I have printed, it is totally incomprehensible. Its about 18 printed pages of 1,2,3,4,5 branches all on different pages. Along with all of the ~~~~ and unknowns(where the heck do they belong). It is as if someone downloaded from a family tree software to this board unable to accept it properly.

Trust me when I say, for all of lay genealogists who use your site, this piece of work is just that a real piece of work. Even when I try to use for a clue here or there I get a headache. LOL

That composite leaves me CLUELESS both literally and figuratively. And, I realize someone had to do a lot of work to compile that piece of work and I appreciate all of thier good intentions, really I do.

Everyone on this website is so helpful and I just can't tell you how much I appreciate the fact you are here.
