I have additional information about Gertrude and Josephine Terrien. I obtained copies of their marriage licenses from Houghton county and it lists their father as Joseph Terrien. Gertrude's mother is listed as Josephine Bohn, while Josephine's says her mother's name is unknown. My great-grandfather's name is listed as Amable Lecuyer, which I have as an alternate name for him. Items of interest on the marriage license are the witnesses: Flora Therien and Joseph Brisson. I found them on the 1880 census in Houghton Township, Keweenaw County, Mich. Flora is the daughter of Clovis Terrien and Joseph Brisson lived with them as a boarder. I believe that Flora is possibly Gertrude's cousin, but have no evidence of that yet.

Any information or input would be grealy appreciated.
