There are quite a few Dragon families that have not been connected
to a descendance of Louis Quay dit Dragon... yet.
Can you help?
-
John B. DRAGON of Lee, Massachusetts, and family.
See our new collection of Dragons in the Vital
Statistics of Lee, Ma!
-
The Dragons in Alburgh,
VT. (also, see Vital
Statistics for Alburgh)
-
In New Orleans: a marriage certificate for a Pierre Dragon
dated July 2, 1804 in which his father's name is given as Joseph.
The mother's name was somewhat less discernible as it is written
as Margart Bodein but [the writer has] seen other spellings
since the original certificate is not very legible. Pierre probably
came down the rivers to New Orleans where he settled.

"We have a black iron shoe last, with 2 different shoe
sizes. It's very heavy and my husband says it was made to set
down inside another device which would hold it steady, so the
person's hands would be free to work on the shoes. It probably
started out in a shoemaker's shop. There is a printed name of
"DRAGON NO.1" on one side of it. "

One of our Dragon cousins found a milk bottle in a yard
sale: its label is for DRAGON DAIRY. Any ideas?
- Jacqueline Carbone
suggests: "the bottle could have come from my uncles milk
bar in Shefield.It was called Dragon's F 2 Milk bar.That only
goes back about 25 or 30 years ago."
- Richard Ellers
writes, "When I was a kid in the 30s/40s, we'd stop there
for a snack or meal traveling to or from our home in Amsterdam,
NY and grandparents in New Haven, Connecticut. Seems
to me my Dad learned, from the owner himself, the name had
to do with the way he jotted his initials: F whatever and
the whatever looked like a 2.
