B.37.

\nPatenaude
\nHenriette.<\/p>\n

On the twenty-fifth of March, one thousand eight hundred seventy four, we, the undersigned parish priest, Auxiliary Pastor of this parish, baptized Henriette, born on the eleventh of this month, of the legitimate marriage of Charles Patenaude and Osithe Gamache of Saint Herm\u00e9n\u00e9gilde. Godfather, Moise Pr\u00e9vost, Godmother, [Uguluma?] Mailloux, both of Saint Herm\u00e9n\u00e9gilde, who, as well as the father, did not sign.<\/p>\n

[signed] P. Girard, Priest<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I am not sure what Henriette’s Godmother’s first name was, but her surname is clear: Mailloux. Looking back at the Birth and Baptismal Record for Henriette’s brother Joseph Charles G\u00e9d\u00e9on Patenaude, I can now see what I could not see initially – the name of Joseph Charles G\u00e9d\u00e9on Patenaude’s Godmother\u00c2\u00a0was Marie Ed\u00ed\u00a8se Mailloux. I have updated my blog entry on Joseph Charles G\u00e9d\u00e9on Patenaude<\/a> accordingly. I have also updated my blog entry on Marie Z\u00e9na\u00ed\u00afde Zite Patenaude<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At this point in time, it appears that St. Edmond had been promoted to the status of a Roman Catholic Parish, and the Patenaudes belonged to the Mission of St. Herm\u00e9n\u00e9gilde, which was apparently a mission of the Parish of St. Edmond.<\/p>\n

When I encounter names in these French records from Qu\u00e9bec, I’m often at a loss to decipher them. I have, however, found some online sources to help with French given names and surnames. The website of the American-French Genealogical Society has a good listing of given names<\/a> and surnames<\/a>, and the e-prenoms<\/a> website is also an excellent source of information on French given names.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
