There she is shown as child m--Agnes, married 1st on 7 Feb 1737 to Honore LANOUE, 2nd on 7 Jan 1761 to Abraham POIRIER. Karen Theriot Reader

Thanks C & Karen Their marriage was recorded at saint-andre-de-restigouche, Quebec. I wonder if the family was up there or the priest from there did a mission (Circut ride) down to Mirimachi area (NB). Any information if Pierre came with the three Broussard groups (from Halifax) or if he was one of the handful of young males who found their own way to Louisiane? I am going to check Drouin on Ancestry for their records. Anyone else wants them, ask off list.
