On Jan.29, 1901 Helene Chiasson age 21 married Simon Gaudet age 24. In 1903 this couple had a daughter Julia who died in 2003 age 99. In this obit the children of the first marriage are listed. In the previous obits the remaining children are likely from Allcide Pottie. Chronicle Herald - Tuesday Jan 6, 1987 (L'Ardoise site) Joseph Paul Gaudet L'ARDOISE - Joseph Paul Gaudet, 80, L'Ardoise, Richmond County, died Saturday in St. Rita Hospital, Sydney. Born in St. Joseph du Moine, Inverness County, he was a son of the late Simon and Helen (Chaisson) Gaudet. He is survived by his wife, the former Irene Sampson; a son, Gordon, Brampton, Ont.; two sisters, Mary, Prairie Grove, Ark.; Julia, New Waterford; a brother, Linus, New Waterford; two grandchildren. He was predeceased by a brother, Ambrose. The body is in L'Ardoise Parish Funeral Home. Funeral service will be 10 a.m. Wednesday in Holy Guardian Angel Church, Rev. Basil Boudreau officiating. Burial will be in parish cemetery. I can't find the Gaudet/Pottie in the 1911 census? When Helene Pottie died in 1959 the informant was Julia, her daughter. I can't find the death of Simon Gaudet or Helene marriage to Alcide Pottie. In the 1901 Census for Arichat West there is an Alcide Pottie the son of Firman Pottie and Sophie Bennett/Benoit. No proof this is the Alcide you are looking for but the age is right 1901 Arichat West 32 - 106 Pottey Firman M Head M Aug 10 1847 53 33 - 106 Pottey Sophie F Wife M Nov 3 1856 44 34 - 106 Pottey Charles M Son S Sep 13 1882 18 35 - 106 Pottey Freddie M Son S Oct 18 1884 16 36 - 106 Pottey Alcide M Son S Jul 20 1886 14 37 - 106 Pottey Minnie F Daughter S Oct 4 1888 12 38 - 106 Pottey Patrick M Son S Sep 24 1890 10 39 - 106 Pottey Maggie F Daughter S May 24 1892 8 40 - 106 Pottey Lizzie F Daughter S Jul 20 1894 6 Regards, Maureen McNeil

I too tried censuses and the only Alcide Pottie I found was listed as the son of Freeman Pottie... The 1922 death record for Firman Pottie includes his father Charles On Wed, Jan 4, 2017 at 3:03 PM, maureenmcneil <maureenmcneil@seaside.ns.ca> wrote: > On Jan.29, 1901 Helene Chiasson age 21 married Simon Gaudet age 24.

Thanks Maureen, The obit is a great find! I didn't make the link. This is the Alcide Pottie I am looking at. I am doing some more digging to see what I can find.
