CARLIER X PLANTE (ou THOMSON), Dunkerque Options

[bhowell]

Hello,

I have been searching for a few months now and I desperately need some help. I told my aunt I would find out who her great, great grandparents were and I just keep coming up with dead ends. As she is nearing 102 in June, I want to get this info for her as soon as I can.

The info I do have (from a family member) is this:

Henry Emile Carlier (1817-1875) Born in Belgium and buried in Dunkirk, France.
He married Louise Renee Plante (1821-1878) in 1838 in Belgium. She too born in Belgium and buried in Dunkirk, Fr. They had three children:

1) George Emile Carlier - (1839-1852) died when he was 13.
2) Dr. Arthur Emile Carlier (1841-1880) studied at University of Paris and became a surgeon. Came to US in late 1860's. He married Ida Mae (Close) Carlier and lived in Ohio. He traveled around northern Ohio into Pennsylvania practicing medicine. It was said that he would work at a cheese factory from time to time when he was low on funds and used that for medical supplies. He was called to Toledo, OH for at a consultation when he had a stroke and died. He was buried in Toledo.
3) Emily Louise Carlier - (1843-1874) no other info for her.

Arthur had three children, George Emile, Sr. was one of them and he was my grandfather. His son was George Emile Carlier, Jr., my dad.

The biggest problem is that I don't know what region in Belgium they were from and I don't know where to begin looking. Any suggestions regarding where I might go for information, would be greatly appreciated. Since I am on a very limited income, I cannot pay to join the various websites. Other spellings might be Carlior, Charlier, Carler,

Thank you so much for any suggestions,
BHowell

Hi Bonnie, bonjour Christiane, bonjour à tous,

I did the exercice with the informations collected on LDS site. Starting from Arthur, I have the following tree:

Arthur CARLIER born Pennsylvania
married with
Ida CLARE or CLOSE depending of the source on LDS site

I found only one child for Arthur and Ida

George E. CARLIER born 6 october 1875 Erie, Pennsylvania, dead 4 july 1941 Dayton, Montgomery, Ohio, buried 7 july 1941 Woodland
married on 2 may 1900 Montgomery Co, Ohio with
Annie E. SPINK born either 1882 Elyra, Illinois or october 1881 Ohio (father: W.A. SPINK, mother Eliza PARSH)

I found five children for this family:

1) Newell CARLIER born 16 march 1901 Dayton, Montgomery
2) Ida May CARLIER born 11 june 1906 Mad River Twp, Montgomery, Ohio
3) Ruth Muriel CARLIER born 21 november 1907 Mad River Twp, Montgomery, Ohio, dead 19 january 1988 Freno, California
4) Charles Wilbur CARLIER born around 1912, married on (confidential) Lehigh Co, Pennsylvania with Ellen D. LOBST (father: Raymond LOBST, mother: Serena KERCHNER)
5) Albert Laverne CARLIER born around (confidential), married on (confidential) Lehigh Co, Pennsylvania with Evelyn Guth (?) SCHARADIN (father: Chas. (Charles?) SCHARADIN, mother: Sallie GUTH). To be confirmed since I am in trouble with married name and maiden name.

Remark: According to the rules on this forum we are not allowed to disclose date lower than 100 years from now. I put (confidential) despite the date(s) is (are) available on LDS site.

With the reference to your last message, we speak about the same people and you probably know much more about the five children. Now the target is to learn a little bit more about Arthur CARLIER and Ida CLARE or CLOSE to study the opportunity to connect those people and at least Arthur to what we found in Dunkirk. Thanks to Stephane and Christiane we have obtained a possible track but we need to be defitinely confident with the solution.

For your information, Charles Everitt WHITMORE, son-in-law of Henri Emile CARLIER dead at Antwerp, married Emilie Louisa Caroline CARLIER on 26 septembre 1871 Dunkirk. At this time he was Vice Consul for UK and based at Dunkirk. Both Henri Emile CARLIER and Louise Catherine THOMPSON were present at the ceremony.
