I do have this marriage data. Following is what I have in my files regarding Clidamont Becnel. If you find that this is in conflict with your information, please let me know. And Maureen, thanks for the spelling correction. For some reason, I have always thought that Clidament was the correct spelling but had no indication of where I got the particular spelling ..... The date you show as birth date is the baptismal date. I do have that referenced. I do have one conflict noted that there is a reference to a daughter born to Drozin Becnel and Emelie Brou named Clidamente, but I have indicated that this was probably someone's guesswork - I have the copy of the page, but not the reference name - Shame on me!)

I received this query today. Maybe one of you has information on this family. If you do, please email her directly. I am just passing on the information.
