My message is in regard to the name of the mother of Adolphe Landry, wose wife was Louise Germain dit Belisle; Jos. Wm. Landry, brother of Adolphe Landry who married Esther Germain dit Belisle, sister of Louise and Alexis Germain dit Belisle who married their sister, Luce Landry. Two brothers and one sister married Germain dit Belisle.
My GG Grandfather is Pascal Landry who married Marie Genevieve..., Marie Genevieve Dufour, or Marie Laprise, Lapriche, Laprile, etc. on 11 Nov. 1805 in Kamouraska, P.Q. in his second marriage. However I have a problem in that I can find the records for only two marriages. His first marriage was to Veronique Dumont in 1802 and the second to Marie Genevieve... in 1805 in Kamouraska, P.Q. In the Quebec Archives the actual marriage contract has been viewed as Pascal and "Marie Genevienve..." signed. In that record she has no family name. The Archivist stated that it usually meant that she was an illegitimate child.
Later it was discovered that Pascal married to Marie Genevieve Dufour according to the marriage in Kamouraska of one of their children. This discovery followed by finding several more children, mostly around St. Cuthbert, Berthier, P.Q. of the same family with their mother's name as "Marie Laprise or Lapriche" and several other variations of this name.
So we now have Pascal's wife with the three variations of her name--"Marie Genevieve...", "Marie Genevieve Dufour" and "Marie Laprise, Lapriche, etc.". We believe she is one and the same person but we have to prove it.
What we are asking is do you know of any family history or stories that might shed some light on the history of "Marie Genevieve..." and the various other names?? Until we can verify how the variations of her identity came about we are stuck.
