Found the following in Daniel Johnson's newspapers archives:
Date June 21 1883
County Saint John
Place Saint John
Newspaper The Daily Telegraph
m. At residence of W.S. BROWN, Shippegan (Glouc. Co.) 17th ult., by Rev. Joseph Trudelle, Parish Priest, Reuben SMITH, late of Redbank (North. Co.) / Miss Kate POULIS, Caraquet.
The name is probably Paulin
In my notes, Theotiste Paulin, d\o Xavier et Angele Frigault
married Ruben Smith, s\o Ruben and Ann Edgen of Miramichi in 1883.
So it fits. What do you think?
Now just look at Canadian census for more details on families.
