Rob,
It is likely that she was baptised, and the record should show at least
the name of the mother and, in this case, of the godparent(s). I had a
quick look at the annual indexes of St-Antoine de Tilly between 1806
and 1812 and couldn't see anything obvious, though. Chaisné could be
the mother's name. From the godfather, the mother might also be a
Boucher?
