(8) ST-GELAIS was born on 12 Jan 1905 in Les Mechins, Matane, P. Q.. He
died on 18 May 1995. Adelard St-Gelais must have done some genealogical research
as he was aware of the basic information regarding his ancestors, and had established
the correct direct line to his Ancestor, Jean-Simon Pradet dit St-Gelais &
Dit Laforge. He also "passed on" many interesting facts about his parents,
Edmond St-Gelais & Odille (Adele) Ross. These facts about Edmond St-Gelais
as they are told by Adelard can be found in the notes in Edmond's file and those
about Odille, in her file. Seeing that much of the same information about the
first Ancestor to arrive in Quebec from France is already in the "Anestor",
Jean-Simon Pradet dit St-Gelais and dit Laforge's file, I shall not repeat it
here.**********. On Nov 1, 1987, when Adelard was 82 & 8 months and 20 days
old, he started working on his memoires which include, as he put it, his joys
and sorrows. He states that he was born at Ste. Felicite in Gaspesie on 12 Jan.
1905, that he is a Capricorn and the son of Edmond St-Gelais and Odille Ross
and that his godparents are Leon Michaud and "Madame" Imbeau. He goes
on to say I am the 7th child of a family of 12 children. When I was born my parents
were living at Ste. Felicite in the fifth row (5 ieme rang) which was about 5
miles from the church. There were about 10 other families (Colons) in the 5th
row at that time. My father's farm was given to him by his parents, Francois
St-Gelais and Sarah Croussette, my grandparents. This farm covered an area of
about 80 acres and our house was about 28 X 32. The house was 1-1/2 stories.
There were two rooms and a kitchen on the first floor and there were 3 bedrooms
upstairs. There were 3 or 4 children per room and the bathrooms were outside.
My father sold this farm and purchased another on the shores of the St. Lawrence
Seaway (Le long de la mer) ("fleuve") which was about 1 mile from the
church. I was about 2-1/2 then, this was in about 1907. It was not warm living
so close to the "Seaway" ("Fleuve"). The house was heated
by a large wood-burning stove. These stoves were known as Colonial Stoves (Poele
des Colons). We had no running water. We would have to haul water for the house
and the animals from the river which was about 625 feet away. The water would
be put into large milk cans and hauled away on a sled. Later my father dug a
well which was operated by a hand pump. That was a great improvement. I still
remember all these things. Eventhough we were small, we still had chores to
do. I remember when I was about 4 or 5 and having to help my mother feed the
animals. In the winter-time, we would have to bring at least one cord of wood
into the house from the shed every day as these houses were cold and difficult
to heat. Life on the farm was not easy, and we went through hard times. My father
managed to always have grain, seeds, and potatoes for planting and plenty of
hay for the animals. We also had salt pork and some beef. My father did his
own butchering. As we did not have refrigeration, salt was the main source of
preservation. However, we would build a large pile of Ice in the shed in the
winter-time and then we would cover it with sawdust, and this ice would last
until early July. My mother would smoke all kinds of meat and fish. So we always
managed to have some food available. We also churned our own butter. Good Lord
! did I ever operate that butter churn. My dad would always have 2 large barrels
of salted fish on hand. He would catch these fish with nets that were strung
out about 50 to 60 feet into the St. Lawrence. Even if we ate much of the same
food all the time, we always had something to eat, and we were happy to have
it as we did not know anything different. Candy, like money, was a very rare
thing. My mother would do the washing in a large tub with a scrub-board and she
would make her own soap. She also made our mittens, knitted hats (Tuques), and
socks. She made our clothes from old clothes and would make shirts for the boys
and dresses and brassieres for the girls from flour sacks that she would dye.
My mother also cut our hair. We did not have electricity and used oil lanterns.
When I left Ste. Marguerite-Marie in 1928, my dad was still using a hand-pump
for water. The first electric water pump I ever saw was when I was living in
Abitibi. In 1928, I was living next to my parents in Ste. Marguerite-Marie.
One fine day I was working in my garden which was littered with rocks of all
sizes. My mother happed to come on by and, as she was watching me work I told
her, " If I continue to pick up these rocks, I am going to get a hernia,
so I am not picking up anymore". She replied, "my Lord ! then what
will you do"? I told her, " I shall go where there are no rocks",
and that is when I decided to go to Abitibi to join my brother Pierre, who was
already settled there. There came a time when my father and my brother worked
at a place called Sam's Brook. (Le Ruisseau a Sam) for about six weeks. He earned
$19.00. My mother owed $9.00 to the Grocer, so they were left with $10.00 which
they thought was pretty good. My father became Ill twice. The first time was
in about 1904, so my mother went to the States to work in the mills. She did
this so we would have some money in order to survive until my father could get
back on his feet. I believe she was working in Winchester or Manchester. (Probably
Manchester, N. H. as It was the largest textile manufacturing center of the
world at that time). Eva, my oldest sister who was 12 years old in 1904, was
the one who cared for the other five children. My sister Wilhemine was only 4
months old. The second time my father became Ill, Eva was 16 yrs old and this
was in about 1908, and she cared for 9 people including herself. There was Joseph,
Pierre, Rose, Whilhemine who was 7 yrs old, Francois 5 yrs old, Adelard 3 yrs
old, Albert 1 yr old and then herself, (Eva) and my dad. Now that I look back
upon all these things, I realize that Eva was a very courageous person for taking
on all that work and responsibility and at such an early age. My mother continued
to work in the Textile Mills in the U.S.A for about one more year. She was a
weaver. My father sold his farm in Ste. Felicite about 1917-1918, and went to
settle in Fournierville. I went with my father on his voyage of discovery so
to speak, when he went to select lots in 1914. That is when the first lots were
made available by the Minister of Colonization. My dad brought me to the woods,
in about 1917 when I was about 12 and I never came out for a whole year. I Continued
to work in the woods my whole life until I was fairly well advanced in years.
We were living in Fournierville, later renamed Ste. Marguerite-Marie which was
about 8 miles from the railroad tracks. We were lumber-jacks and we felled trees
and cut them into 3 foot logs. We also removed the bark from these logs. In the
wintertime we would haul this wood from the forest on sleds with teams of horses.
As we grew older the work seemed to be less difficult. Certainly less difficult
than when I was 12 yrs old when I first learned the lumber-jack trade, anyway
we enjoyed working with our dad. I never returned to Ste. Felicite until I was
22 yrs old. I guess it was in about 1927 when I went to take a look at our old
Farm. The village of Ste. Marguerite-Marie developed very slowly at first, about
3 or 4 families per year, then about 15 per year, and then a little more. In
1924 when I got married I already had my own house which I had purchased when
I was about 17 or 18 yrs old. I purchased this house from my father's neighbor,
a mister Landry, so that is how I became my dad's neighbor.***** (Adelard goes
on to speak about his "religious views" and the "Morals of the
times.) Here are a few excerpts. In those days we were required to pray a lot.
We had to say our morning prayers as soon as we got out of bed or else there
would be no breakfast. At noon-time there would be a blessing before the meal,
and in the evening we would recite the rosary. Our parents made us wear little
sacs of religious medals or a scapulary so we would be protected from evil and
to bring us good health and happiness. Sunday mass was mandatory and should anyone
miss going for any reason, well then any misfortune that might occur during the
week was due to having missed mass on Sunday. I made my first communion when
I was 11 yrs old. I had to walk to catechism classes every day for a whole month.
Then after summer vacation we were required to attend 2 full weeks of nothing
but catechism classes. All these things were required in order to become a good
catholic back then, and all the children went through this same process. I was
not able to attend my sister Eva's marriage because I had to attend catechism
classes. These classes were absolutely a sacred event. However, I did join in
the wedding festivities later on in the day. During our first confession the
priest would ask us if we obeyed our parents, and if we cursed which we did not
even know what cursing was. Anyway we were happy and often dreamed of doing something
special and great with our lives. That is all that one could do. We did not receive
any type of counseling from our parents about sex, or for that matter, what we
should do with our lives. They were too busy working from the wee hours of the
morning to well after sundown, and we all had chores to do as well. Sex in them
days was a forbidden subject, and was never discussed. When babies were born,
we would be sent off to the neighbors until we were called for, and when we returned
to find a new baby in the house, it was either a "Raven" or the "indians"
whom had left it for us to care for. There were no single moms, and if it occurred,
it was kept secret. There were no divorces either. Married couples had to put
up with each other, no matter what. We did not have a schoolbus to transport
us to and from school either, eventhough the shcool-house was about 1 1/2 miles
away. There were 60 students in my class. We would have morning paryers, more
payers at noon-time and then a rosary before leaving late in the afternoon. I
did not attend school on a regular basis as I broke my leg when I was 9 yrs old.
A mister Gauthier set it for me and put splints on it and I remained bedridden
for a whole year. When I was 10 yrs old, I broke my shoulder so I was out of
school again. When I did attend, I was an attentive student and managed to learn
how to read and had good math skills. I remember there was one reading book for
the whole class and it would be passed around. We also used slates and white
chalk to write. We did not have pens and paper and all the schools supplies
that are common today. After moving to Ste. Marguerite-Marie, I did not attend
school as there were no schools there yet, and by the time I was 12, I was working
with my dad in the woods. When we were children we did not have toys like the
children of today. We would make hoops fastened together with one nail only
as nails were a precious commodity and we were not allowed to waste them on home-made
toys. Sometimes we would make wheel-barrows out of scrap wood and we would convert
empty wooden spools of thread into spinning top. If we did not mind our parents
or did something they did not approve of, we had to kneel in the corner for a
full hour, and then beg their forgiveness before getting up. Not too much celebrating
went on at Christmas time. We would go to mass, there were no gifts, and our
parents would cut an apple in half for the older children, and one would be quartered
for the younger ones. Once in a great while we would find a piece of fudge (sucre-a-la-creme)
in our Christmas Stalkings, and we were happy to get even these few things.
We did however, have a very good meal on Christmas day, and we would usually
have company join us for dinner. At New Year, friends, neighbors and relatives
would come over to exchange season greetings and good wishes, and these exchanges
needed to occur before the Epiphany. My dad would go visit those who did not,
or were not able to come visit our home. My mother was the one who prepared an
elaborate feast on that day, and everything was made from scratch, as there were
no take-outs, catering, or pre-made cakes and pies etc. in those days, and everything
tasted great. All the food preparation was left up to the women. Afterwards we
would all sing and dance, and sometimes we would have music. It was also the
only occasion to kiss the girls as this was the only day it was permitted, so
we all took advantage of it. The Epiphany, (Le Jour Des Trois Roi Mages) "The
day of the three wise Kings" was the last opportunity for friends, neighbors
and relative to visit each other, so we would go to mass on that day and nobody
went to work. My parents had their favorite songs that they would sing. My mother's
favorite was "Les Cloches du Hameau" (The bells of the Little Village).
I remember World War I. I was about 9 yrs old, and recall that the police would
be searching for men who had hidden in the woods in order to avoid the draft.
Some of these men would work in the woods for my father in order to survive,
and my dad would pay them every Saturday. Rarely were they ever caught. There
were no work strikes or taxes in those days. When the war ended in 1918, I was
about 13 yrs old, and I remember people were dropping dead like flies. It was
the Spanish Flu (La Grippe Espagnol). Some families lost as many as four individuals
per household. It seemed like almost the entire village was wiped out. Nobody
died in our family, but my dad, my brother, and I became very ill. I had horrible
nose bleeds and terrific head-aches, and it seemed like our hearts wanted to
stop beating. We were all bed-ridden for several days. We did not have any medicine
or pills back then and we were given a home-made remedy made from the roots of
the (Centragon) plant. One would either get better, or died. At my uncles house,
there were 4 or 5 that died in two days. His wife, his daughter and her husband,
and two of his daughter's children. My dad was the one who would make all the
caskets out of rough wood and then these wooden boxes would be covered with black
sheets and they all looked alike. We thought it was the end of the world. Our
neighbors, our relatives, everybody was dying. The priest would show up from
time to time as there was no church yet and the shcoolhouse served as the chapel.
We prayed so much that the rosary that my mother had made from (Corne= Antlers?),
wore out so she had to make us some new ones made of metal as these would last
longer. We prayed endlessly. When I was young, there were newspapers in Matane,
but they never found their way into our home. My parents were always too busy.
We did not have a radio either, so any news that made it to our house was either
by mail or by word of mouth and in many cases the news was distorted. At times
I was not always an angel. When I was between 13 and 16, I loved to pull pranks.
One day my brother Francois, myself and a friend of ours, Adelard Savard were
visiting another friend of ours, Ti-Thur (Arthur) Demers who had 3 very shapely
sisters between 14 and 16 yrs old. Mrs. Demers was a very strict woman and could
sense that we were up to no good so she shooed us away, she said git, git, git
away from here. Anyway we decided to pull a prank on the grils. We managed to
get peices of wire from a nearby fence and waited patiently in back of the out-house
until the girls needed to use it. Finally the girls arrived, and we waited until
we heard water trickling and then ran the wires through cracks of the out-house.
Needless to say the girls flew out of there with their panties still in their
hands, screaming their heads off. That's when Mrs. Demers came out with a 12
gauge shotgun in her hands. Did we ever high-tail it for the woods. Another
time the same threesome who masterminded the prank on the girls decided to pull
one on the girl's brother, Ti-thur Demers. We cornered him in the barn and took
all his clothes off. Being a very shy person he ran to hide in the horse stall,
so we agitated the horse in the stall, so Ti-thur came running out of the barn
stark naked, at the exact moment that my sister had come to check on what was
agitating the horse. My sister was absolutely livid. We thought that was a great
prank and that we had pulled it off even better than it had been planned. Now
Ti-thur did not report this prank to his parents, as he surely would have been
forbidden to associate with us. Of course we never mentioned any of these pranks
to our parents either. Adelard St-Gelais goes on to say that when he was about
16 or 17 yrs old , he was tall and thin and that he went to work in Campbellton,
New Brunswick for the "Chaves"( Company). Then he goes on to say,
I worked there 7 months without ever leaving the lumber-camp. I was earning about
$100.00 per month, and, while I was working back home in Quebec, I was earning
about $1.00 per day. When we did come out of the woods, we did not socialize
with women too often, but they all looked beautiful to us. In the summer-time,
I would operate a "lath machine" (Machine a lattes) Wooden laths were
used extensively on walls and ceilings before the plaster was applied. (This
was before dry-wall-board sheets as we know them today came into use). I earned
about $2.00 per day for doing this type of work, and did not care for it very
much, so I was always anxious for winter to arrive so I could return to Campbellton.
Adelard goes on to say that during his journey to Campbellton an overnight stay
was necessary, and that it was the first time that he had ever slept in a hotel.
Then he mentions a friend who accompanied him, Edmond Verroux who was married
to Rose Otis, his future wife Ernestine Otis' cousin. Adelard goes on to mention
that on a return trip to Matapedia, that he and Ti-mond (Edmond) decided to
smuggle a little gin over the border, and that this was stricly forbidden. Neither
one of us knew a whole lot about drinking so we each bought a small flask of
gin. After crossing the border, Adelard went to the men's room at one of the
train stations to take a " little swig" and when he turned around,
found a tall man staring right at him...... and almost had a heart attack until
he realized it was a mirror and he was looking at himself. Good Lord! what a
scare I had. I had never heard of a mirror in a rest-room before, hell, I came
from out-house country. So here we were back in Causapscal, and I had in mind
to go to Abitibi. There was talk about plenty of work and good wages in Abitibi,
and I had more or less decided not to return to Ste. Marguerite-Marie because
I knew that my dad would not have wanted me to leave home. Although we were no
longer obligated to him, we loved him so much that we did not want to hurt his
feelings. My father was in charge of mail delivery in the area and, he just
happened to run into us in Causapscal and insisted that I return to Ste. Marguerite-Marie
with him, so I climbed aboard and my dad said your mother will be glad to see
you. I told my friend Ti-mond (Edmond) that I would return the following day
after visiting with my family, but never did. My brother Francois also wanted
to go to Abitibi as well, and when we told our dad, he would not hear of it,
so I told Francois, let me go and then you can join me later, this way it won't
be so hard on dad. As it turns out, it was Francois who went and I stayed in
St. Marguerite-Marie. I told Francois to write to me right away, and to let me
know what was going on up there, as I was anxious as hell to join him. Anyway
after seeing my family I went over to see my girl-friend who told me, I have
some news for you. I got married while you were away. You know, I never thought
that I would ever see you again, especially since I did not get one word from
you in 7 months. Then she said "come see my house". After showing me
the house, she offered me a cup of tea and a piece of pie. Wanting to be polite,
I accepted, and after I ate the piece of pie, she sat next to me and kissed me
gently on each cheek and said, I want you to know that I am still very fond
of you. Anyway I decided to go back to work at the local saw-mill while awaiting
any kind of news from by brother, Francois. After about three weeks, one fine
morning, Francois finally showed up. I was anxious as hell to hear what he had
to say. Then Francois said that things are not like everyone made them out to
be in Abitibe, and that the pay was not any better than at Ste. Marguerite-Marie
and as a matter of fact, things were not good at all over there. I found this
news to be quite depressing and my dad could see that I was sulking, so he said
"Mr. Landry, our neighbor is selling his house, and it might not be a bad
idea if you bought it while you still have some money. I had money saved up
from my 7 months of work in Campbellton, so I followed my dad's advice and bought
Mr. Landry's house. I was still single and was living at home, and really had
no need for a house, so I rented it out to a young guy that I worked with who
had recently married. ***** This next section leads up to how Adelard met and
married Ernestine Otis, and seeing that this note section is already quite full,
I shall continue Adelard's memoires in Ernestine Otis' note section. Before I
forget, we should all be grateful to Nicole St-Gelais/Clermont, Adelard's grand-daughter
for E-Mailing me all this information. (Translation by Robert St. Gelais, GEDCOM
