Pierre Laverdure, a French-Canadian, Dies at Advanced Age of One Hundred and Eleven Years Pierre Lavendure, aged 111 years, who has been a resident of Fergus county since 1876, died at his home on the outskirts of the city yesterday morning at 4 o'clock. He had many friends among the old-timers in this section of the county who were familiar with him when when he was a vigorous and hardy man in the early seventies. His unusual longevity is no doubt due to the simple and invigorating life led by the early pioneers who hunted and trapped for a living and were, perforce, removed from many of the enervating influences which are attendant upon a modern civilization. Pierre Laverdure leaves a wife and many children to mourn for one who has always treated his family with kindness. --- Fergus County Argus, Lewistown, MT, 19 Mar 1902 Note: An account of the life of Pierre Laverdure was published in the Pictorial Edition of the ARGUS, issued in 1901. It stated "His father lived to be 112 years old and his mother 120." --- It's important to note, Pierre's birthdate was never known to him or his parents. He did live many long years. His father living to be 112 and mother to 120 is what one might call a good story; unsubstantiated Folklore perhaps. Legal documents, court records and depositions backs up this statement. Pierre is my husbands grandmothers, great grandfather. Many stories have been handed down over the years. Contributor: alaskagirl2 (49159950) •
