Elijah Paquin, son of William and Florence Paquin. Born on August 13th 1900. From an early age Elijah knew he was different from the other kids in his town, the immediate difference was the clothes he wore. His were dirty, patched and frayed and theirs were clean, posh and extremely expensive. But that wasn't the only difference, he always became shy when the delivery boy smiled at him or when they boys in the streets waved at him. It was never the same with girls, them and their frilly dresses and shiny shoes
