Individual Details

Jane LANDEAU

(14 Feb 1872 - 19 Dec 1947)

Adopted by her great-aunt and great-uncle, after her mother died in childbirth. She was a granddaughter of Antoine Langdeau (Longdo, Londo) and Elmire Champeau, but I am not sure which of their sons was her father. I did notice in the 1880 census that several other Londo children were distributed among the cousins. Later became Sister Mary Rose, of the Holy Family Convent in Manitowoc.
