Genealogy research

I am looking for information on the Arau family of Camden Maine (Leo, Tony, Frank, Lucine Louis, (all born between 1882 and 1892) . Relatives of the Gitto (alsoGetto) family of the Boston Mass. area. My mother, Ruth Doherty summered there as a girl. There is a brick building in the town square with the name ARAU embeded in it. That was a family business.

 Any help is appreciated. Tony Shepherd (5th generation)

Hey Tony! Good to know that you are truly looking for Arau Family. What had happened to me, I spent lots of money to get my proper identification in many sites but they turned me down. At last I got Find People and Public Records which helps me lot. I think you can have some positive result. Please get tuned.

 

I found this census report from 1920.  Is this the family o whom you refer?
