Part 810g - Smith Groh Genealogy - 1840 Baptism - GGGG-Grandmother Catherine Grenier

Good Day,

And the search and research continues of the genealogy of the Parisé Family Line continues. This time I veer and my sights are on the birth and baptism records of gggg-grandmother Catherine (née Grenier) Huard, Parisé.

The date of gggg-grandmother Catherine’s Baptism is 20 September 1840. Her birth is provided as 20 July 1840. We are now introduced to her parents, ggggg-grandparents Jacques and Catherine (née Duguay) Grenier. Note that this is another occurrence of the surname Duguay.

Once again I have discovered two Registrations in The Drouin Collection. Here are the images as downloaded via Ancestry.ca.

I have provided one transcription for the two Registers as it appears that, in this case and as best as I can read, both Registrations are similar.

From my previous Post, Part 807gh it appears that gggg-grandmother Catherine received her parents agreement to marry her double 1st cousin Romain Huard and that she was considered a “fille mineure”, a minor daughter. From my approximate calculations gggg-grandmother Catherine may have been 20 years old at her first marriage in 1860.

If you have any questions, thoughts, ideas, and comments I certainly would appreciate hearing from you.

The saga continues.
