Vicki a lot of Beausoleil families came from Joliette & Berthier counties.....the town could be St-Cuthbert frenchy pronounciation could sound like "San-Q-bet" There's also a St-Hubert "san-u-bet" in Chambly county Don In a message dated 9/6/2009 3:14:59 P.M.

His wife, Louise Grignon, was from "Stanbridge, Canada." I found Stanbridge, Quebec but, as I expected, I can't find a Sanebit. I am guessing that this is an anglicized version of a town that is phonetically like it if one speaks French, such as St. Habit. Does anyone know of a town or former town or parish that sounds in English like Sannabee, Sannabit, Sanaybit.? My first guess is that it would be in Quebec, as they were said to be French Catholics.
