Originally posted by Mary from Italy View PostIn the meantime I've been trying to trace François Xavier's line backwards, to see where it leads.
I've done it fairly quickly, so it needs checking, but if I haven't made any mistakes (bearing in mind that the earlier records are very hard to read), these are his ancestors:
1. François Xavier Kérouac dit Breton, bap. 1821 at L'Islet-sur-Mer, parents: Hilaire Kérouac and Marie Magdelaine Bouchon or Bouché, married in 1819 at L'Islet-sur-Mer.
2. Hilaire Kérouac bap. 1798 at L'Islet-sur-Mer, parents: Simon Alexandre Kérouac and Marie Ursule Guimand, married in 1782 at Cap-St-Ignace.
3. Simon Alexandre de Kérouaq, bap. 1760 at L'Islet-sur-Mer, parents (Simon) Alexandre Kérouaq and Marie Elizabeth Chalifour (spelling? ), married in 1758 at L´Islet-sur-Mer.
4. (Simon) Alexandre Kérouaq, parents' names in marriage register practically illegible. Father's name could be Lebardie or something similar (it doesn't really look like LeBris or LeBihan), and mother's first name looks a bit like Louis, but could be anything. There is a baptism at Cap-St-Ignace in 1735 for Alexandre, son of Louis LeBrice de Kerouac and Louise Bernier(?), which might possibly be the same person. The baby was born the day before it was baptised.
5. I found a burial in 1736 for Alexandre Kérouaque (?) Breton, aged 30, who I assume is related to no. 4, possibly his father, but there's no way of being sure.
So this family does appear to connect back to the one you mentioned in your first post, but don't get too excited yet, because we still need proof of Adèle's birth.

Originally posted by Pierrot View PostYes I agree with you it all comes back to the same story.
Adèle and Joseph Calixte had 15 to 17 children, 4 of wish were born in USA Mary 1875, Minnie 1876, Georgianna 1877 and Isabelle 1882. I'm still looking for information on Mary and possibly a fifth child Angie.
Can you post details of the US births of those children? If it's the same family, Marie, Georgianna and Isabelle were living in Canada with Joseph and Adèle in 1891, and I can't find baptisms for any of them in Canada. However, Adèle said on the census that she immigrated to Canada in 1881, which would be before Isabelle's birth.
