Comment by Chris Dunham on July 12, 2010 at 7:19pm: Okay, that helps. Can you provide any other names in Charles' family—wife, children?

Comment by Susan Blakeman(Lavoie) on July 12, 2010 at 7:41pm: Yes his wifes name was Robertine Edna Lizotte...there children were Lucille (Lavoie) she is my mother has no recollection of her dad, and he had three sons...Robert Charles Tribou...Owen Kempton Tribou...and Richard Bryant Tribou ...I also have as Charles's parents as Harry Tribou and Ann Elizabeth but that i am not sure if it is right.

Comment by Chris Dunham on July 12, 2010 at 8:37pm: Oh, so this was your mother's marriage announcement.

According to his World War I Draft Registration card, Charles' middle name was Harry, and he was born 21 Aug. 1889.
The 1900 census says he was born Aug. 1888 (be sure to click "View Image"). He was then living in Hampden with his parents, Charles and Annie E. "Tybow." It seems that he had at least eight brothers and sisters. The census says that Charles and Annie had been married for 17 years, so they are probably the Charles E. Tribou and Annie E. Stubbs who married 11 Nov. 1882 in Bangor.

Comment by Charles Richard Tribou on August 5, 2010 at 8:33am: My name is Charles Richard Tribou and my father was Richard Bryant Tribou. Lucille is my aunt and Charles E. Tribou was my grandfather. I was wondering if Lucille was still with us as I know she suffered through a hurricane a few years back that destroyed her home.
