Here is a chapter in a book about settlement in the St. John River valley. I scanned it quickly and it seems to be very general history without much mention of any names of individuals. Still there may be some info of value in it.

Reno,
I found a Rene son of Joseph on Rootsweb here:
http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin ... &id=I36347
Joseph has a brother named William.
The birthdate of Rene is 1911 which doesn't match with your date of 1920 but it is close.
Regards,
James
