Since I am not having much luck, I think her name may have been 'americanized' and was wondering how the spelling might be or if anyone know of a 'dit' name associated with La Dizier. She married Joseph Brazeau in Illinois territory. I believe Joseph was the son of Charles and Genevieve Quenneville Brazeau. thanks Pat Perhaps these records will help.
