      Notes for ALCIDE PIQUETTE (per http://www.genealogy.com/users/p/i/q/Romeo-Piquette/FILE/0003text.txt):
      Alcide and Adeline operated a grocery store in Montréal from 1900 to 1904. In 1904 they moved to Morinville, AB and resided there until 1908. They moved to St. Albert, AB where Alcide was the Manager of the St. Albert Flour Mill. Later he owned a Meat Market. While in St. Albert he became the first Secretary Treasurer of the town and was also a School Trustee. In 1914, Chevigny Brothers who owned and operated the Chevigny Bros. General Store in Plamondon, hired Alcide as the store manager. The newly formed Plamondon School District 2696 needed a teacher so Adeline was hired as the first qualified teacher (there were a couple of unqualified teachers previouly). On Aug. 6, 1914, the family left St. Albert by train to Athabasca Landing. From there they went by covered wagon on the two day trip to Plamondon. When the store closed in 1923 they moved to a homestead 3 miles south of Plamondon where Alcide farmed and Adeline taught at the nearby Berny School.
      Adeline died in 1926. Alcide traded the farm for a grocery store in Plamondon in 1929. He also became the village Postmaster and Telephone Operator, all located in his store. He resided in the upper level of the store. He sold his store in the fall of 1943 and retired at that time. He lived with his son Roland & Zea from the spring of 1944 until until 1958 when he moved to his son Jean & Della who lived in Morinville at the time.
