This photograph was submitted by Alexis Peters, fellow member of the ACGS. This photo was taken circa 1927-1929 in Worcester, MA. From the right: My maternal 2x great-grandparents, Arthur R.A. Dufault (1890-1959) and Coral Lomme. Their children Roland E Dufault (1911-1987), Helen Dufualt (1913-1995), Raymond R. Dufault (1914-2003), Estelle T. Dufault (1915-2009), Arthur L. Dufault, my great-grandfather Albert Henry Dufault (1919-2009), Dolores Dufault (1920-2010), Leo E. Dufault (1923-2000), Edward Dufault (1925-1977), and one unknown Dufault child. Coral is pregnant with another Dufault child in this photo, but I haven’t been able to find out who, my great-grampa did not talk much about his family and he passed away when I was 10.
Arthur was born the 5th of 11 known Dufault children on May 25, 1890, in Saint-Germain-de-Grantham, Drummond, Quebec. His parents were Misael Dufualt (1853-?) born in Sainte-Victoire-de-Sorel, Le Bas-Richelieu, Quebec and Solomee/Salome Fontaine Dit Bienvenu (1862-1934) born in St. Hyacinthe, Quebec. Misael, Salome, and 6 of their children (including Arthur) are listed in the 1900 Auburn, Worcester, MA census. Misael, Salome and 4 of their 6 children (including Arthur) are listed with an immigration date of 1895. As far as I am aware all the male children served in WW2. My great-grampa was a veteran of the Battle of the Bulge and was stationed in Austria. He was a lifelong machinist and worked for Wyman-Gordon on military contracts, including building closed die forgings for the Saturn V rocket.
Coral was born the 4th of 10 known Lomme children in 1890 in Holyoke, Hampden, MA. Her parents were Franke Emile Lomme (1865-?) born in Quebec and Ellen L. Lancto (1855-?) born in Chateaugay, Franklin, New York. Very little is known about Coral’s family other than her parents and siblings’ names and general birthplaces.
