Biography

When Lemert Quaintance Wilbur was born on November 25, 1893, in North Dartmouth, Massachusetts, his father, Samuel Wilbur, was 24 and his mother, Eunice Gidley, was 28. He married Bertha Idella Bertha Dorr and they had two children together. He then married Aagot Barmen and they had four children together. He died on July 25, 1962, in St. Petersburg, Florida, at the age of 68, and was buried there.

Research Notes

An article in MinnPost cites the following: "A judge is keeping secret the names of jurors who convicted a Minneapolis police officer this week in the shooting of an unarmed woman. Judge Kathryn Quaintance cited the possibility of unwanted publicity and harassment in an order Thursday that keeps the jurors’ identification sealed for 90 more days. The jury on Tuesday convicted Mohamed Noor of murder and manslaughter in the 2017 death of Justine Ruszczyk Damond. … Quaintance had cited the same factors when she ordered a confidential jury when trial began a month ago."

Given the propensity to use maiden names as middle names (both boys and girls) is this a clue to Lemert's relatives. Cursory check was unsuccessful maybe write the judge a letter?

The family surnames of Roger(s), Kirk, Gidley, and Quaintance have been passed on through the generations, according to Quaker naming traditions (Eunice Wilbur).

As to the surname Quaintance, I've been able to determine that Hannah Ann Kirk (1821-1885) (https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/27HQ-4QN) , daughter of Caleb Kirk (https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/LZKL-TST), married Eli Quaintance (1818-1885) (https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/27HZ-QNY).
