Hi Marilyn: There is a list for the Storman & Milles Roches area at: http://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.canada.ontario.stormont/521.527/mb.ashx. For the 1830's, definitely talking about Lower & Upper Canada. Another site to try is: http://www.mesaieux.com/an/default.htm After entering the site, click on surname and enter Derosiers. There are marriages, etc. listed. Because this area is in the North, looked in the Hudson Bay Records and there was one Derosiers. Long shot to be yours, but take a look at his employment record: http://www.gov.mb.ca/chc/archives/hbca/biographical/index.html Good luck and surely someone on this list knows the name of the book with the Quebec records (memory is drawing a blank).

Lauraine, Thanks for the reply. I have looked at this site before (NOT the Ancestry one, I do not have a subscription) but while I find many DeRosiers, I can't seem to locate any of the family I seek. I'm sure these people are kin, but until I find the one I'm looking for, it's just speculation. Jean Baptiste may be a brother or an uncle. I am looking for children born and baptised in the 1830s to Francis & Delia.
