Good morning list, Parents - Jean-Baptiste Lebrun & Marguerite Gaudet Born - December 22, 1752 in Acadie, Nova Scotia Married - Joseph Couturier January 9, 1769 in St Michel, Yamaska, Quebec Joseph Couturier died in 1775 leaving Josephte with 4 young children & pregnant with # 5. Josephte's 3 oldest children lived to be adults & married. Her 2 youngest daughters died at age 3 & 5. I have never been able to find a second marriage for Marie-Josephte Lebrun, she was only 22 when her husband died. She lived to be 65. My question is how did she survive if she didn't remarry? Has anyone found a 2nd marriage for her? She is my 6th great grandmother. Thanks for any help, Linda

no record of a second marriage for Marie Lebrun. My maternal grandmother was expecting her 13th child when her husband died and she never re-married.
