Valentina Murray Dufresne
Paul Dufresne – he was a French Canadian.
Valentina and Paul were married in 1942 in Edinburgh, Scotland. Daughter Pat was born in Edinburgh in 1944. After the war, Valentina and Pat travelled across the ocean on the Queen Mary to meet Paul and we settled back at Paul’s homestead, at Elie Manitoba, a small town on the outskirts of Winnipeg. The town of Elie had been founded by Paul’s Grandfather Elie.

Four siblings Dufresne
Martin married Jacqui Bleeks – if Martin or Jacqui could help out here with the names of the kids and grandkids that would be great.

They have another daughter Christie Dufresne
Their wedding took place on 14th December 1978. Jacqui’s Dad to the left and Valli and Paul at the right. Today they live in Rainy River ONTARIO, Canada.
Our great niece Narissa and our granddaughter Haylen both got brown leather jackets for Christmas. I think they look like they could be sisters. We’ve thought that since they were very young.
