From The Chronicle, Willimantic, CT, USA. July 1, 1931:

Joseph Mathieu, 83, died this morning at St. Joseph's Hospital. He was born
in St. Ours, Canada, April 16, 1848, a son of Michael and *Agathe (Lavallee)
Mathieu. The deceased was a harness maker by occupation and resided here
for 45 years. He was a member of St. Mary's church and was a loving and
devoted father to his family. He leaves ten children: Mrs. Delia Barton of
Pawtucket, RI, Mrs. Jospeh Boucher of this city, Mrs. Emma Chronley of
Middletown, Mrs. John Hoey of this city, Sister Mary Beatrice of the Academy
of the Holy Family, Baltic, Mrs. Dora Roe of Chester, PA, Mrs. Peter Tatro
of this city, Joseph of North Windham, William of Columbia, and Adelard
Mathieu of this city; one sister, Miss Henriette Mathieu of this city; a
brother, Byron Mathieu of Norwich, 37 grandchildren; and 25 great
grandchildren.

*NOTA BENE: Joseph Mathieu's mother is incorrect in this obituary. It
should be Clemence Arpin. Agathe Lavallee was actually Joseph's wife's
mother. Joseph's wife was Elizabeth Cartier.
