Part 844g – Smith Groh Genealogy – GGGG-Grandmother Catherine (née Grenier formerly Huard) Parisé – 1840 Baptism – Paspébiac, Bonaventure, Quebec, Canada

Good day,

In my continuing search and research of the genealogy of the Parisé Family Line I have now found the 20 September 1840 Baptism registration of CK’s gggg-grandmother Catherine (née Grenier formerly Huard) Parisé. From The Drouin Collection I have been able to find both registrations of gggg-grandmother Catherine’s baptism at the mission of Paspébiac at Notre Dame de la Purificatin in the Parish of Notre-Dame, Bonaventure County, Quebec.

According to the registration gggg-grandmother Catherine was born the 20th of July of 1840 and baptized the 20th of September. Her parents were ggggg-grandparents Jacques and Catherine (née Duguay) Parisé.

One image is number 16 of 22 of the 1840 Register. The second image is number 29 of 380 if the 1839 to 1864 Register. The second image, number 29, is much more difficult to transcribe and translate due to the condition of the image, as presented.

My search continues. I have stumbled upon on a number of links to the Parisé genealogy on line. All-things-being-equal I am also searching for the good sources and citations.

Enjoy, and stay tuned,
