Notes - Major world changes took place during Magloire and Leocadie's life together. In the year following their marriage, the British North America Act united all British colonies in North America and created the Dominion of Canada. The British intended one country and one culture but did allow the Quebecois to retain their Catholic religion and their French language.
In 1871, Magloire was a farmer living in Ste-Emelie-de-l'Energie, alongwith many of his brothers. Magloire and Leocadie then appeared in the 1881 Census with eight of their children still living in Ste-Emelie. During the 1870s, the entire world suffered an economic depression, touching even the smallest villages, including Ste-Emelie. Word then came from brother Xavier in Ontario that 1881 was agreat year in the lumber industry. Magloire and Leocadie thought it was their time to join the newfound prosperity in the west. The Waubaushene Mill had recently been rebuilt following its August 1881 fire. The main building of the new facility was 126'x70' with an attached engine room housing two 250-horsepower steam engines. The bottle-shapedburner, 28' in diameter and 125' high, incinerated sawdust and other refuse. The most modern saws and equipment kept the mill running.
Magloire and Leocadie then uprooted their family and made the journey from Quebec to Ontario, settling in the Waubaushene area, following in the footsteps of Magloire's brothers Xavier and Basile andhis sister Zoe. Their exact date of migration maynever be known but approximates spring 1883. We know that they moved between the time of daughter Diana's birth in October 1882 and Magloire's presence at his nephew Joseph GREGOIRE's baptism in Penetanguishene in June 1883. Their ownson William wasborn in Waubaushene in June 1884. The year 1884 was also the first year of publication of Eaton's Catalog, which brought much magic to the lives of the rural folk. They spent countless hours leafing through each year's edition, marveling at the endless items available. All they had to do was fill out and mail a form and whatever they ordered would be waiting for them at the nearest railroad station a week or so later -- provided, of course, that they had the moneyto pay for it.
Before buying a farm, Magloire and Leocadie possibly moved into one of the 15 new homes built in Waubaushene to accommodate the population surge. During the time of Magloire and Leocadie's migration,Waubaushene grew to over 1800 souls. In 1887, Magloire was farming part of Concession13, Lot 12, between Waubaushene and Port Severn. In 1890, he owned hisfarm in Waubaushene on Concession 11, Lot 10. The 1891 Census also shows them in Waubaushene. By 1901, the family lived in a four-room houseonConcession 10, Lot 10, in the town of Waubaushene. Magloire must haverisen to a position of some stature at the mill as he made $850 that year.
Shortly after this Census, Magloire and Leocadie seem to have moved to Victoria Harbour, where they bought themselves a house on William Street West. According to his obituary, Magloire then found employment with the Victoria Harbour Lumber Company, which was run by John WALDIE until1907 and later his son Fred WALDIE ran it until his death in 1927.

Bio from Facebook on 30 March 2010:
30 March 1845 -- My own great-great-grandfather is the subject of today's profile. Happy 165th birthday, Magloire! Born in Joliette, QC, Magloire ARBOUR was the 14th of 20 children of Jean-Baptiste ARBOUR and Marie-Emelie DORVAL. Yes, I did say 20 children! Our poor Emelie. Anyway, 20-year old Magloire married 15-year old Leocadie CHARTIER-ROBERT in St-Alphonse-de-Rodriguez, QC, on 15 January 1866. Major world changes tookplace during Magloire and Leocadie's life together. In the year following their marriage, the British North America Act united all British colonies in North America and created the Dominion of Canada. The Britishintended one country and one culture but did allow the Quebecois to retain their Catholic religion and their French language. In 1871, Magloire was a farmer living in Ste-Emelie-de-l'Energie, QC, along with many of his brothers.

During the 1870s,the entire world suffered an economic depression, touching even the smallest villages, including Ste-Emelie. Word then came from brother Xavier in Ontario that 1881 was a great year in the lumber industry. Magloireand Leocadie thought it was their time to join the newfound prosperity in the west.

Magloire died of sudden heart failure on 03 February 1924 in Victoria Harbour. When Leocadie died in VictoriaHarbour on 02 April 1926, shewas buried there next to Magloire in St Mary's Catholic Cemetery. All in all, Magloire and Leocadie wereparents to 14 children, grandparents to a whopping 116, and great-grandparents to 281! - we stopped countingafterthat.
