Biography

Francois was born in Canada and died in New Hampshire United States.

He was identified as "Metis" which means a person of mixed Native and European (in this case French) ancestry. (Unsourced).

Francois [Francis], son of Joseph Sirois and Phelmire Bois, passed away in 1921.^[1]

He is buried in St. Patrick Cemetery in Jaffrey, New Hampshire. ^[2]

Research Notes

The gravestone pictured in the Find A Grave source shows death date 20 Jun 1922. This is apparently the correct Francois Sirois because "son epouse" is Philomena Sirois. The death source cited gives the death date 28 Jun 1921.

I can't find a birth source.

I found no information for family Sirois in the Jaffrey Town HIstory.

I have moved the "Metis" designation from Suffix field (as it is not part of his name) to the biography section. There's no source for this information but I'll add him to the appropriate category.
