Family lore has it that
Arthur Beaulieu left Quebec at the turn of the century, lured to BC by work on
the Canadian National Railway in the Fraser Valley (he travelled by ship,
sailing around Cape Horn). Arthur married Susan Everett, who was a First Nations
resident of St. Mary's Mission residential school from an early age. Once he was
established, Arthur paid his brother Paul's passage to BC, where he married a
local resident and settled in the Fraser Valley. One day while sharing a meal at
Arthur's home, Paul choked to death on a bone. His grieving widow blamed her
sister-in-law, and the two families parted. Unfortunately, the relationship
between the Beaulieu families was permanently severed and has not been mended to
this day; their relationship has been lost over time. Paul's son Lorne was named
for the street in Vancouver where the family lived. Death records for Paul
confirm his identity and the Beaulieu family story:

Marriages Act, Schedule B, Reg. No. 1909-09-126948, B.C. Archives Microfilm No.
