Sur la photo Isaïe est le troisième à gauche. Au moment du premier mariage de son fils Georges en 1877 il se déclare journalier, sa résidence est alors St. Johnsbury, comté de Caledonia au Vermont, de même que pour son épouse (alors décédée).

Aucune information sur la famille, frères et soeurs mais par contre une photo qui date de 1873 environ parue dans l'Album Photo ..
Voir photo de Georges Garneau et ses frères? ou peut-être amis ou cousins?
Par ailleurs, lors du recensement de 1891, Georges habitait avec sa conjointe Angélina Cliche, son père Isaie Garneau, ses enfants et 3 autres personnes qui pourraient être ses frères: Rodolphe (22 ans), Camille (18 ans) et Edmond (15 ans)... (info obtenue de Danielle Robinson)

A propos du lieu de résidence de Isaï au Vermont lors du mariage de son fils Georges en 1877 on peut lire ce texte qui relate la présence de nombreux canadiens français dans cette région:

The Advertiser goes on to cite St. Johnsbury’s local paper – no doubt the reason The Caledonian reprinted the piece. Continues the Advertiser,

The following quotation from the St. Johnsbury (Vt.) Caledonian will prove interesting…"The French Canadians," [The Caledonian] says, "are coming into Vermont in great numbers. They already own a good share of the farms in the northern tier of counties and are filling the manufacturing towns with operatives of both sexes, and laborers in all departments of industry and trade. When it is known that in a place no larger than St. Johnsbury (which had but 5800 inhabitants in 1880), the parish priest numbers his parish at between 1900 and 2000 souls, the increase of the Canadian element into Vermont begins to be appreciated."

Now, what is said of Vermont is true also of Massachusetts and other New England states. It is believed to be true, also, that the Roman church is encouraging the emigration, and encouraging also the French determination to remain French. There is danger in this. We do not want a nation within a nation. We want no man here who is not, potentially at least an American. If immigrants won't sing Yankee Doodle, they must be made to sing it. With mature French-Canadians probably nothing can be done ; with the children something is possible. If we wish not to have an alien and connected body among us, armed with great power by a ballot which they will use, if at all, to further their own interests and not those of their adopted country, we must have a stringent school law, and moreover enforce it well.
