Hi,
I'm looking for help in tracking down the parents of Jean Baptiste Boivin and Marie Louise Pare.
I've been able to trace back through Pierre Boivin who married Basilisse Vachon in July, 1850 in Ste Mariee, Quebec. The record of their marriage indicates that Pierre's parents were Marie Louise Pare and Jean Baptiste Boivin. Also, the burial record for Marie Louise Pare confirms she was the widow of Jean Baptiste Boivin.
There seems to be a whole lot of unsourced information out there that claims that the Jean Baptiste Boivin who fathered the Pierre that married Basilisse Vachon was in fact married to Marie Genevieve Pare. While there is a record of such a marriage it really does not add up when you match that with the marriage record of JB Boivin and ML Pare.
Does anyone have information that would indicate that Marie Louise and Marie Genevieve are one in the same. Seems unlikely. Any help is appreciated.
