Catharine (Mendenhall) Gallant's birth date was taken from her gravestone inscription, also her name spelled Cath(a)rine. Her death certificate also spells her name with an "a" not "e". She was married to Joseph Alexander Gallant who was born on Prince Edward Island Canada. On their son Thomas R. Gallant's birth certificate she is listed with her nickname of "Kate".

Catharine was listed by the informant as being age 62 in her death notice. She was the wife of Joseph Alexander Gallant. Joseph Alexander Gallant Jr. (who died young) is also buried in this family lot of graves.

I would appreciate having a photograph added to this Memorial page of Catharine and one of her husband if someone has them. They are my great grandparents. (Oct. 13, 2015)
Her husband Joseph (who died after Catharine) name, birth, and death information was never added to this gravestone as his wife's was. Of their children Sara M. (Gallant) Golden was the only one of their children living in the area. Son Thomas Ross Gallant was living in Chicago Illinois with his family.
