Hi Fran: My thanks to you and others in related threads for showing that, at least in the written records, only Charles Rancourt and Catherine Lachance had a son Pierre who might have married in Waterville, Maine ca. 1851. You offered to name siblings of Pierre, son of Charles Rancourt and Catherine Lachance. It so happens that Pierre fits nicely in a gap between two groups of siblings. To compare notes with names and dates of birth: Delphine 20 Nov 1807 Ambroise 27 Aug 1809 M.-Basilisse 28 Mar 1812 Bernard 19 Jul 1814 Chrysostome 12 Jan 1817 Pierre 13 Sep 1823 Marcel 27 Oct 1829 Domitilde 6 Sep 1833 Al Poulin On Apr 7, 2014, at 6:52 PM, Fran LaChance wrote: > > Al; > > in the Drouin at genealogiequebec there is only one couple Charles Rancourt and Catherine Lachance m 1806/ and Pierre 1823 is attributed to them.

About two months ago, Fr. John collapsed, after breakfast, in the kitchen at St. Hyacinth's Senior Retirement Home in Chicopee. He was transported to Mercy Medical Center emergency dept in Springfield, where after several hours of examinations he was admitted as an in-patient. He spent two weeks there before he was then transported to a new permanent residence on 2 Feb, where he has no access to computers at any time, and only has his cellphone for outside communication. The building he is now a resident of is 100 yrs. old. If anyone wants to see a photo of the Beaven Kelly Home, let me know and I can send one to you off list. I speak with him daily and he is doing well. If anyone would like to write to him or send him greeting cards, in either French or English, I'm sure he would appreciate receiving them. His new address is: Rev. John L Sullivan c/o Beaven Kelly Home Room 209 - Bed 3 25 Brightside Drive Holyoke, MA 01040 Regards, Linnie

Hello Fran: Thanks for the extra look-ups. All this helps to limit the possible parents of my Pierre Rancourt to two or three possibilities. The family you describe is not it, but it thrived very well in Maine; most, including this Pierre, settled in Dexter, with one brother in Waterville Pierre's first marriage was definitely to Louise Pouliot. Second marriage in Dexter to Apolline Grenier ca. 1860 in a Protestant service. This marriage was renewed within the Roman Catholic Church on 23 Jun 1863 at St.-Frédéric. Two children, William and Pierre were legitimized, baptized the same day.

G'Morning Unc Fred, Nope, sorry. A page by page search of the parish register of Immaculée Conception and of the protestant congregation in Trois-Rivières for 1817 yields nothing of the sort, not even close. The closest I can find is a Thomas LAMARE who married a Mary HANS at the Methodist church of Stanstead, Quebec, on November 6, 1843.

Great that you found the record, Jackie. For Al, I wanted mention that if you can't find someone, sometimes it is because the information is too specific. You sometimes get better results with a minimum of information, even though you might get a lot more irrelevant hits. Between the spelling, and the transcription errors, and the information we think we know because we saw it in another record, sometimes it's just best try with less.

Hello Fran, I like the way you phrase your statement about the Drouin data not extending beyond 1814 for this family, at least as far as "Pierre" is concerned. 1814 is too early for the likely date of birth. In the Maine censuses, 1860 Peter Ranco in Waterville was 41 1870 Pierre Rancoue in Waterville was 39 (obvious error) 1880 Peter Ronco in Winslow was 59. It would be interesting if the cut-off at 1814 in Drouin means the data on Edouard's marriage in 1832 is not there.

Hi Al, You had mentioned the place, parish and date, so rather than search for the burial record I just browsed.

I am looking at the parish register at genealogiequebec and it definitly says "regiment Canadian" and the first name of mother is illegible but there was only one Germain marriage and it was Louise. These were not the parent of Pierre as his baptism definitely states his mother is Catherine Pepin dit Lachance.

Al; in the Drouin at genealogiequebec there is only one couple Charles Rancourt and Catherine Lachance m 1806/ and Pierre 1823 is attributed to them. The last marriage of their children in Quebec is 1836: Bernard (residing in Boston Diocese, MA) & Ursule Caron, so perhaps they moved to Maine shortly after that. There are 3 Charles Rancourt in that time frame, but each with different spouses/parents, so Pierre belongs to them along with several siblings. If you need siblings let me know.

There is a record of burial of Charles Rancourt, at Notre Dame in Quebec, 12 Sep 1809, deceased the day before, son of Charles Rancourt, soldier of "régiment Canadien (?) and (?) Germain, at age of nine months, as seen in Amazon. com (from Drouin). I find no entry at Familysearch. Is an image from the original register kept at the parish available? Does it clearly indicate the name of the "régiment Canadien"? Perhaps "Fencible."? What is the mother's name? Do you actually see "Louise"? Thanks for any help on this. Al Poulin
