Thanks again Ray. She would have to born after Feb 1818 to be a minor
in Feb 1836 when she was married so I looked in the 1818 St. Antoine-
de-Tilly
records and found right away a birth for Marie Constance, nineteenth
leaf,
birth 73b. Again I can't read the handwriting! Looks like "de parents
incommus",
godfather Basile Fortier (same guy again) and godmother Marguerite
Lambert.
Also it says something at the end about Basile Fortier signing.
Rob
