To all those who helped with my Métilly marriage information -- thank you! The only one I was missing was the subject marriage. I did a little deducing by assuming that since I could not find the marriage in HIS parish and checked Beloeil since that is where she was supposedly from and voila! So, in case anyone else may need the information now or in the future: Joseph Métilly (in margin) Joseph Métilly dit St. Onge (in text) of St-Jean-Baptiste parish Father: Joseph Métilly dit St. Onge Mother: Marie Daunais dit Frenière Isabelle Lavigne (in margin) Isabelle Brodeur dit Lavigne (in text) of this parish Father: Jean-Baptiste Brodeur dit Lavigne Mother: Elisabeth Casavant dit Ladébuche(?) Date: 07 Jun 1825 Interesting note: First child, Perpétue Métilly, was born 28 Oct 1825 -- looks like Isabelle may have become pregnant, married in her parish and then moved to his parish before giving birth five months later. :) I have saved a copy of the marriage record if anyone else would need it. Thanks, again, for all your help! Patty --------------------------------- Get your own web address. Have a HUGE year through Yahoo! Small Business.
