The Larlee Genealogy

The Larlee Genealogy The Larlee Genealogy is a family history told through lineage, stories and memories starting with Dr. John Larlee and Margaret Barker.

I want to share our family history in a way that is as interesting as it is informative. This project needs to be a collaborative effort for it to be successful and I welcome any information that will help fill in the many blanks still remaining in the family tree. Allowing family members the opportunity to add/edit information makes it possible for me to spend more time looking for good source do

cumentation. In addition to finding sources, I want to research historical events and discover how history affected our ancestors and how they affected history. My ultimate goal is to publish our family history in a book. Anyone who can show a relationship to Dr. John Larlee and would like to contribute is invited to register as a user on the website. Your contributions are welcomed.

I was asked by Peter Larlee to post the following:
Do you have information on Wallace Herbert Larlee, b. 1921, d.1945? He is a war hero!
George A. Larlee (b. 1868) and his wife, Mary Browning (b.1883), were married in 1901 at Aroostook Junction, New Brunswick, Canada. They had 12 children, 11 of whom reached adulthood. The youngest was Wallace Herbert Larlee. Wallace died in Germany on 24 April 1945, 10 days before the German surrender, on a pointless mission with 8 other members of the North Shore (NB) Regiment when their transport was hit by a mortar shell.
Wallace is my 2nd cousin, twice removed. He was single and 19 at the time of his death.
Wallace is buried in Holton War Cemetery in Holland. I will travel to Holland in 2025 to participate in the liberation of Holland commemorations along with a close friend whose father died in the final weeks of the War and is also buried in Holton.
If you are related to Wallace through one of his siblings (could be one of your grandparents), please send me a photograph or any information you have. I will ensure that he is properly honored and not forgotten!
Wallace’s surviving siblings were:
Lila May Larlee b.1902 d. 1982
