George Dumais/Goodrich
was born circa 1915 in Cuba.
He was the son of Napoleon Dumais aka
William Goodrich and Raquel Del Castillo.
George was named after his grandfather
George Dumais whose wife was Sara Demers.
We have no birth record for little George but according
to the 1917 passenger list when his mother Raquel
and siblings sailed for Lawrence, Massachusetts
he was born in 1915. It is believed he died at the
age of two though his death record has not yet been
found. I think he looks a bit older than two in the
above photo. What we do know is that he was
not in the Federal Census of 1920.
George is my first cousin once removed,
son of my great uncle who was my grandmother
Arthemise Dumais Levesque's brother.

He is pictured as an old soul - I am sure he was treasured.

Hi Theresa,
I agree with you. It seems his mother ordered the portrait from a photograph the family had of little George.
Thank you for your post.
