Patureau Brothers

This is a photo of my great grandfather Vincent Maximilian Patureau. (He is one on the left in the photo.) It was probably taken around 1925 in Lafayette, LA where he had a veterinarian practice. The other man in the photo was his older brother Louis Leobon Patureau. (Great grandfather of Elmo Leobon Patureau, Jr. Great great grandfather of Byron J. Patureau and his sister Dana.) The woman is Gertrude Brammer Patureau who was married to Louis Leobon’s son Arthur. Vincent Maximilian was the father of my grandmother Germaine Erie Landry, aka Mee Maw.

It is the clearest photo that I have of my great grandfather.  Here is a crop of the photo that just shows him.  I know that some cousins on the Patureau side of the family have a wedding photo of him.  I need to get together with them and get a good scan of that one too.

I now have reason to believe that the photo was taken in Beaumont, Texas, at the home of Gertrude Brammer Patureau.  And I also found that wedding photo of Vincent Maximilian Patureau and his wife Marie Therese Landry.  Actually my cousin Tricia found it at her house when she was cleaning up early last month.  What an exciting find!  She also found another old Patureau family photo that I had been hoping to find.
