Sometime between the enumeration of the 1910 U.S. Census, which shows that the Gregoires were living in Point Marion, PA, and 1913, the family moved back to New York City. I don't think we'll ever know why they moved. The glass works laid off people, they missed their relatives - there are many possibilities. One of those possibilities could be that Laure was ill.
She passed away Jan. 8, 1913, as noted in the abstract of her death certificate found on FamilySearch.org. On Jan.10 she was buried at Calvary Cemetery. Hopefully soon I'll send away for her death certificate, and find out more details. I am putting her name on my "Places to visit on Long Island" list for my next trip up there. I have been to Calvary Cemetery, in Queens, before: to visit my paternal grandmother's grave. Having navigated the traffic and roads of that very congested area already, I am more confident of visiting!
