Hi BG, There is no mystery about that entry in the DGFA1 – as sometimes happened, the priest made two entries for the same child – that is why both entries were posted in the Dictionnaire by Stephen White. There was no emergency baptism – and had there been that would have been it. A child is baptized only once no matter what. From Stephen White: <<There are two baptismal entries in the Port-Royal register for Marie-Élisabeth Dugas, and between the two records there are discrepancies, particularly regarding the dates and Marie-Élisabeth's godmother. There is really very little more that can be said about that than what I put in the DGFA-1, that there are two records, with a few differing details.>> Lucie LeBlanc Consentino Acadian Ancestral Home at <http://www.acadian-home.org> www.acadian-home.org American-Canadian Genealogical Society Drouin Primary Records at <http://www.acgs.org/> www.acgs.org Centre for Acadian Studies - Moncton University <http://www.umoncton.ca/etudeacadiennes/centre/cea.html> www.umoncton.ca/etudeacadiennes/centre/cea.html
