Summary

Sister Rene Langlois was Jeanne Langlois, born in 1916 in a French settlement near South Bay City. Her August 1970 obituary says she entered religious life after attending Marywood, taught music and elementary grades in several places, and later taught French and religion. Beaver Island was among her assignments, and the obituary says she loved her years there.

Evidence and limits

This is an episode-qualified biographical record. The source does not name her religious order, give exact birth or death places, identify her Beaver Island school or dates, or provide a burial record. Her connection to the Beaver Island Dominican-Sisters article is therefore not encoded as membership.
