Charles deMouilpied Furniture Store

Last year the Manchester, New Hampshire Historical Association put out a wonderful calendar. What made the 2013 year special was it featured Charles' de Mouilpied's furniture store. According to the calender, the  approximate year is 1915. The building still stands as a mainstay for Elm St. Earlier locations of his store are elsewhere on Elm St. and other locations in Manchester. This is perhaps the last location of the business.


De Moulpied Geneology from the Midwest

I received this thoughtful email which is loaded with de Moulpied information. It may be of use to some of you out there. I see that some of the births were in Washington.  If anyone can verify that, much appreciated. The Washington connection has been a mystery so far. Thanks and enjoy!

I am not related to this family but my gr-grandfather married (W#2) widowed Tressa M. Windnagle Demoulpied 1926 @ Traverse City, MI. Tressa May Windnagle Demoulpied Hamilton d. 1942 @ Traverse City, MI - see Findagrave.com Mem#122851607. Her 1st husband & f/o four children was 
Clarence Martin Demoulpied b. 1885 - d. 1918 SD (see Findagrave.com Mem#55565552). He was the son of Thomas James Demoulpied (b. 1857 WI - d. 1930 Antrim Co., MI) & Lavina Johnson (b. 1865 MI-d. 1912 Antrim Co., MI) - see "MI Deaths & Burials Index Records" (ancestry.com). Thomas J. Demoulpied did marry a 2nd wife after 1912 - see 1920 census record. 

Children born to Clarence Martin Demoulpied & Tressa M. Windnagle (d/o Edward E. Windnagle -FAG.com Mem#75301384 & Ada Bronk - FAG.com Mem#75301392) were: Queen Bell Demoulpied Burton (b. 1904 MI-d. 1991 Mason Co., WA), May Demoulpied (b. 1907 WA), Clarence Earl Demoulpied (b. 1909 WA-d. 1984 Troup Co., GA - see GA Deaths & SS Death Index Records) & Irma Demoulpied (b. 1912 WA). 

I am sharing this info with you in hopes that it may be helpful in some way. There is presently a "Don Demoulpied - contractor" @ Traverse City, MI.

What an interesting family origin you have!
