This record can be found as image 12\/19 in the Quebec Vital and Church Records (Drouin Collection), 1621-1967 on Ancestry.com in the records for St-Armand (Methodist Church) 1866. The record appears on verso folio 10 (the back of folio 10).<\/p>\n

This particular record is from the civil transcript of the circuit record. Maryette was baptized when she was 33 years old.<\/p>\n

Maryette Olds, daughter of Willard Olds and Hannah Eliza Shults, would later marry Clark Gibson whose death and burial record I showed yesterday<\/p>\n

I could not read the surname of the second witness.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 03 Jun 2008:<\/strong> Thanks to Ambar and Barbara P., I see now that the surname of the second witness is Armstrong, though I still can’t make out the middle initial. I wonder if Harriet Armstrong was related to the minister, J. (John) Armstrong?<\/p>\n
