My thanks to you, Karen! Always a bit confused ... However - I show Marguerite Dupuis as being born 1751. (I wonder where the '1775' came from?) Then the child of Etienne and Marguerite - Marguerite Boudreau - b. April 16, 1792. The Mathilde, another daughter of Etienne and Marguerite, I show b. 1832. My information in this area and upward (and some downward) came from the generous sharing of Don Boudreaux, with his data base of over 26,000 Boudreau's (w/6 or 7 different spellings). Thanks again for your additional help with other dates and locations. Am I correct in assumming that you have no information on the Napoleon m. Josephine Paradis? Are there other areas of IN besides Remington where your Boudreaus lived? Best to you .... I remain in a rather pleasantly confused state, Kathleen -----Original Message----- From: Kwirsching@aol.com <Kwirsching@aol.com> To: ILSTANNE-L@rootsweb.com <ILSTANNE-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Monday, May 01, 2000 10:08 PM Subject: Re: [ILSTANNE] Napoleon (at least two of them) Boudreau of Kankakee, IL Kathleen: Thanks for the info. The only question I have is the marriage of Etienne and Marguerite Dupuis. She was born in 1775 and the children who you have listed under Etienne and Marguerite were born when she was only 3 years old. The Etienne’s get very confusing because there were so many of them. What do you have as a birthdate for Marguerite? Here’s some add-ons to your info: Etienne (the first) was born in Beaubassin, Acadie (Nove Scotia), his wife Marie, was born in 1751 at Grand Pre, Acadie, she died about 1777. She was the daughter of Pierre Boudrot and Marie Richard. Marguerite Dupuis was born in 1775 at Grand Pre, Acadie and they were married at Laprairie, QP. Pierre, the child of Etienne and Marguerite was born in 1794., he died 4-7-1888 in Bourbonnais, IL. His wife Dorothy Tremblay died 6-10-1864 in Bourbonnias, IL. Their children: Pierre died at St. Valentine, QP Cyprien (my gg grandfather) died 9-8-1905 in Remington, IN, his wife, Pelagie died 5-20-1908 in Remington, IN. Cyrille married Rose LaTour at St. Jean, QP, the date I have is 11-9-1863. I don’t even have Mathilde, are you sure she’s the daughter of Pierre and Dorothy? Do I have you completely confused now? :-) Karen ============================== Join the RootsWeb WorldConnect Project: Linking the world, one GEDCOM at a time. http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/
