    1. [DOUCETTE] William Doucette, Tusket, Yarmouth, NS 1837 - ?
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: Sheila2555 Surnames: Doucet, Doucette, LeBlanc, Moulenson Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.doucette/451/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I am looking for information on William Doucette (also seen as Jean Guillaume Doucett)who was born around 1837 and lived in Tusket with his wife Lydia LeBlanc (also seen as Marie Lydia White). They were married in Eel Brook in the early 1850's and are found in the 1881 and 1891 Tusket census. I suspect that William is the son of Andre/Andrew Doucette (b. abt. 1806) and his wife Anna (Hannah) Moulenson (b. abt. 1814), both found living next door to William in the 1881 census. Other unsourced research has him as the son of Augustin Doucet (b. 1780) and his wife Marguerite LeBlanc (b. 1795)with a wife Ludivine LeBlanc, but I don't see how this could be the William and Lydia I am looking for. I could not find any evidence in the online database. If anyone has access to Doucette records for Tusket, I would appreciate a look. I am hoping that William's marriage record in the early 1850's or his death record between 1891 and 1901 would identify his parents.
