Matilda Loiselle Toutant - 1900 census Chippewa Co, WI

Matilda LOISELLE was a daughter of Etienne LOISELLE and Florence ROBERTS. To this point, I have only been able to locate her on the 1880 and 1900 censuses. She was a sister to our family's George William "William" LOISELLE who married Anna Maude "Annie" ROBERTSON (also found with the surname ROBINSON).

Matilda LOISELLE married a man with the surname TOUTANT, likely in Chippewa County, Wisconsin. He was apparently Alphonse TOUTANT (TOUTEMPS), but I have not yet independently documented that. The 1900 census indicates that Matilda has married, had three children, and divorced.
