    What is this?
    These two old pieces of cardboard were together with the buttons once in the posession of my grandmother, Gladys Mary Fraley. They were found amoung her things when my mother travelled back to Syracuse for my grandmother's funeral.
    I am not positive, but I think my grandmother had taken French lessons in school or someone had tutored her.

      Joseph V. Bisha came from France to his country in 1828, at that time being 13 years of age. In 1841 he married Almira, daughter of Robert Sixbury, and followed the occupation of farming on road 8, where they remained 16 years. They then removed to Pleasant Valley, in the town of Cape Vincent, remaining there five years, when they returned to this town and purchased a farm on road 35. During the next 19 years they resided in several different places, finally returing to the farm on road 35, where Mr. Bisha died November 24, 1883. Their children were Mary V., Sarah J., Malinda, Louis J., Charles E., Ferdinand A., Julia A., Peter J., George A., and William M. The latter resides with his mother on the old homestead.
