Thanks Ray! Ok, so the next question I have is: if a person
was born illegitimate (whatever that means in Quebec or church
law), was the birth recorded anywhere? Would there be a civil
record in the St. Antoine-de-Tilly area? This woman called herself
Constance Chaine' in later records, so maybe she's the illegitimate
daughter of the Ignace Chaine' (Chaisne') who lived in the area.
