Son of Louis and his wife Marie (nee Porrot, 1877 - Unknown).

Joseph, with both his parents, was among the 63 Bretons noted on the manifest of the SS Vancouver arriving in Halifax, Nova Scotia, April 02, 1905, bound for St. Claude, Manitoba. On the manifest, Marie-Anne (Dacquay) Dondo, a distant cousin to his father, was listed as a "domestic" to the family, despite the fact she was accompanied by her own family of six children.

Widowed in 1906, less than a year after the family's arrival, his mother remarried in 1915 with Julien Marie Le Roch. Avaliable records, including the 1916 Canadian Census, indicate this man enlisted with the French forces in WW1 and that he perished on or about July 2, 1916, in service to his country of birth. No further records of his mother have yet come to hand.

For a time in and around 1916, Joseph lived in the household of the Dondo family his parents had supported while the father went ahead to Canada to prepare a home.

Married on April 21, 1926, at Somerset, Manitoba, to Marie Prejet; marriage registration 1926,016247 (as "Joseph Dacquay" and "Marie Louise Prejet").
