Ron Frazier's Father and Mother
My father was born in Braintree and my mother in Boston. Unknowingly, until I did the genealogy, they were both descended from the Acadians, and their ancestors were related a number of times. Their similar interests and backgrounds obviously drew them together.
And below a picture of them at the time of their wedding.

Both Sophia and Isaac came to Braintree and Rockland, Massachusetts, as children, from Havre Boucher, Nova Scotia. It is not known if they knew each other in Havre Boucher but it is suspected that they did. They were married at Saint Francis of Assisi Church in Braintree when it was located on Central Ave. They left the church in a one-horse open sleigh.
