Helene Pheobe Comeau

1838 - 1917

• Born	1838	West Bathurst, Gloucester, New Brunswick, Canada
  	In a transcription from "The Northern Light" by Florence Gray Godin in her "Obituaries 1838-1920" it states the following: BERTIN: Mrs. Pheobe passed away at the home of her son Mr. Alex Bertin of East Bathurst. Born in Youghall in 1834 she died in 1917. She lived in Boston, Mass. and latter returned to Middle River where her husband died four years ago. She leaves four daughters, Mrs. Jane Peck of Campbello, Mass. Mrs. Louis Fay of Summerville, Mass. Mrs. Charles Ayles of Campbellton, N.B. Mrs. Thomas Bartlett of West Bathurst, four sons, Stephen, and Frank of Boston, Chief of Police Bertin, and Alex of East Bathurst, one sister Mrs. C. Melanson of West Bathurst. Burial was in the Sacred Heart Cemetery. In hand writing on this document we find the following: Mrs. Jane Peck is daughter Jeanne Mrs. Louis Fay is daughter Elisabeth Mrs. Charles Ayles is daughter Marie (Mary) Mrs. Thomas Bartlett is daughter Georgina My additional note: Since her daughter Clementina is not mentioned,this is another indication that she has already died. Her death certificate estimated her birth year: 1830

  Notes	A family member told me that Phoebe always used Comeau as her last name; not Bertin. She also told me that it was believed that Phoebe was part aboriginal. Lien déduit par Rhonda FIsher Name: It is possible that "Heley" is a transcription error and should be Helene because her mother's name was Helene.
