Would like to know if Luke is same as yours.
Looking for any information on Luc Bessette/Aglae Cyrier they are thought to have been in the Minneapolis area/ Hennepin Co. around 1894/1895 or later. Luc and Aglae were married in 1858 in Bourbonnais IL. Came to MN late 1880's? They also have family connections to Hutchinson and St. Cloud MN.Anything would be appreciated. Thank you.
