Researcher's notes

Provenance

The coffin plates for Edourd Plante and Joseph Treffle Plante were found in Maine USA.

Plate dating note

From the look of Edourd's coffin plate I would say it was made between 1880 and 1910. That would give Edourd a birth year of about 1849 to 1879.

1870 United States Federal Census

I had a look in the 1870 United States Federal Census for all Plantes.
