Thanks to “Debbiesaint” for sharing this picture.  Her comment on the earlier picture “Sangimaux” explains how Moses came to get his nickname.

  1. I was delighted to see this picture and doubly delighted when it’s owner allowed the picture to be shared. Please don’t reproduce it without permission (see her comment under the first “Sangimaux” entry if you want to reach her).

    We’d love to hear stories about Moses’ and his family and life at Chazy Lake.

  2. The younger picture of Moses St.Germain does look a lot like the picture of the older gentleman I took years ago from Uncle Wilfred’s collection. The spelling “Sangimaux” is just a guess. I heard Uncle Wilfred say it once and I thought that it might be French. It could, however, be an Indian name or something else. Nevertheless, in the younger picture he seems to have been a handsome looking chap. I wonder what the dates might be? Uncle Wilfred said that this man lived close to Chazy Lake in a dugout with logs in front.
