Looking for Charlie Prevost's children MANITOBA

Surnames: PREVOST , CATCHEWAY
HI All,
Am looking for the descendants of Charlie Prevost. He was originally from Sprague, Manitoba and he married my grandfather's sister named Sarah Angelique "Rosa" Catcheway. She was from Skownan First Nation in Mb and was of Ojibwe descent. She was born about 1917 and married in the early 1930's to Charles Prevost. They had 2 children, a boy and a girl born in the 1930's. Sara Angelique Catcheway died very soon after that. It is our family's desire to reunite with the descendants of our loved one's family. We believe they lived in Winnipeg for a time. That is all the info we have...except Charlie did have a brother GEORGE Prevost that also married a cousin to Sarah Angelique Catcheway.

Surnames: Charles Prevost
Hi
My name is Therese Lalonde. My mom was Rose-Anna Prevost.
She did have two brothers by the name of Charles and George and also seven more children I believe. Names Augustine,
Leontine, Delima, Joseph, I can't recall the others but this should be a start. My mom told me her two brothers, her sister Delima and their mom and dad (Emile and Josephine bathlon moved to St. Boniface Manitoba after she was married (1919) Delima came to visit in Ontario around 1950. The two brothers were supposedly dead but she had no news of what happened. The Prevost family were raised in and around Bearn, Quebec. My mom and dad moved to Ontario 1943. If you have anything that connects you to me I would be very interested. My e-mail is theresehalle@yahoo.com
Wouldn't this be great to find new members to mom's family. Let me know

My uncle James Catcheway lives in Portage La Prairie, he is about 73. He remembers his family would always talk about Jacqueline Sarah "Rosa" Catcheway, and wonder what became of her, as she left the reserve at Skownan (formerly Waterhen First Nation) at a young age. She married Charlie Prevost and had 2 children, a boy and a girl. We dont know their names, then Jacqueline Sarah "Rosa" Catcheway died. Don't know where she is buried or anything. Her children, would be able to be registered as Status Indians of the Skownan Band, either as a 6(1) or a 6(2) because of Bill c-31.

We heard that Charlie Prevost died in the Pas, Manitoba...don't have dates, maybe around 1994 was what I was told. They were married about 1931.

His brother George married a Madeleine or a Catherine Catcheway, from same reserve too.

Surnames: Prevost Charles
Hi
Got your memo today. I guess we are on the wrong track because I'm certain that Charles Prevost was French Canadian. He did marry an aboriginal girl and he did have a brother named George who also married an aboriginal girl. But he died we are quite sure before 1950. Unless he called his son Charles and he is the one who died 1993.
Charles would have been born in the early 1900's. If you have more info please contact me at my email address.
It's been good to write about this. I will keep looking. I also kept your address so if hear more I will let you know.

Well I was told that Charlie Prevost died in 1994-1995, but I could be wrong on that.

Do you have any info on the other brother George Prevost?

I know that apparently they came from Sprague, Manitoba which is a French village.

Do you have any info on kids born from these 2 men?

Thanks,
Cameron

Surnames: Prevost, Catcheway
Found out that Sarah Jacquline's nickname was not Rosa but ROSINE. So she was Sarah Jacqueline "ROSINE" Catcheway. She lived with her husband on the Pine Creek-Camperville Settlement in the 1930's. He, Charlie Prevost worked at the school, but they also tended to the cattle.

I have a record that Madeleine Prevost (nee Catcheway) died April 27, 1933 (age of 19 years). she was married to George Prevost.

I have a record that Josephine Prevost (probably named after her father's mother) died April 7, 1933, at the age of 3 hours at Pine Creek Settlement.

Armand Richard Prevost died July 18, 1933, age of 1 years at Camperville, Mb.

Joseph Charles Henri Prevost died April 26, 1935, at the age of 13 days at Pine Creek.

Our family remembers (my great grandfather Gaspard Catcheway) was in Hospital at St Boniface, during the 1950's. He recognized his son in law, Charlie Prevost, who was also in the hospital. Charlie said, My kids will come later during visitin hours to visit. A boy and a girl, all grown up came. Met their grandfather. So am assuming, that Charlie Prevost was sick, and probably died around this time. He did NOT die in 1994 (wrong information).
