FatherDescere Forgotte3
MotherEugenia Fromont3
Birth*Cecelia Verjote was born circa 1889 in Belgium (Her age at death calculates to a birth of 29 Oct 1888).4 
Birth-note Although her son's amended birth record, shows her name as Cecelia Verjote, it is probably Vergote (Verghote, Vergotte) as the Belgium name would not be spelled Verjote. Her death record gives her father's name as Forgotte, so, it may be that the name is Vergotte. Her mother's surname, Fromont is not a Belgium name. It may perhaps be Forment or Ferment. 
Marriage*She married Michael Emilius Vandeputte, son of Felix Emile Vandeputte and Theresia Staelens.1,2,3 
Death*Cecelia Verjote died on 10 June 1924 at Seattle City, King County, Washington, at age 35 years, 7 months and 12 days.3
