Hello, I'm researching Elijah Beausoleil/Bosely, who is recorded in Rockingham, Vermont as having been born in "Sanebit, Canada," around 1840. 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. Thank you for any assistance! Vicki in NH

Hi Vicki Stanbridge is in Missisquoi County. A place that could be Sanebit is the church of Ste Sabine in Ste Sabine town in the same county, establish in 1888 Its the best I can come up with:) Good luck Renee -----Original Message----- From: quebec-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:quebec-bounces@rootsweb.com]On Behalf Of chip Sent: Sunday, September 06, 2009 3:14 PM To: quebec@rootsweb.com; quebec-research@rootsweb.com Subject: [QUEBEC] Quebec Place Name Hello, I'm researching Elijah Beausoleil/Bosely, who is recorded in Rockingham, Vermont as having been born in "Sanebit, Canada," around 1840.
