*source Marriage Reportorie de Repentigny...
This marriage did produce one Child),(A LOUIS JETTE), does anyone have any data about this child?.
*source birth Reportorie de Repentigny...
This is the REAL PUZZLE:
This same MARIE ZOE ARCHAMBAULT, (daughter of Joseph & Marie Angelique Janot dit Lachepelle).
(ABOUT 4 YEARS BEFORE HER MARRIAGE TO LOUIS JETTE)
MARRIED: JEAN BAPTISTE ARCHAMBAULT b. 8 Feb 1808, (son of Antoine & Marie Josephte Sevigny), on 17 Nov 1834
at Repentigny L'Assomption (no known children of this marriage)
*source Marriage Reportorie de Repentigny...
This same JEAN BAPTISTE ARCHAMBAULT
(son of Antoine & Marie Josephte Sevigny) second married to Josephte Touin/Thouin, (daughter of Jean Baptiste & Marie Josephte Chartier) on 30 Apr 1838 at Repentigny)
*source Marriage Reportorie de Repentigny...
(this second marriage produced several children)....
MY FINDINGS:
Marie Zoe did not die till 15 Apr 1851, I have found no death date for Jean Baptiste Archambault.
I have been unable to find two Jean Baptiste Archambault's born to an Antoine & Marie Josephte Sevigny, nor two Marie Zoe Archambault's, born to a Joseph & Marie Angelique Janot dit LaChapelle.
BOTH:
Jean Baptiste Archambault And Marie Zoe Archambault
AS PER THE Marriage Reportorie de Repentigny...
RE-MARRIED WHILE THEIR SPOUSE'S WERE STILL LIVING, IN 1838...Neither are shown as (widow or widower) in the Marriage Reportorie de Repentigny. nor does the Marriage Reportorie de Repentigny, mentioned that this marriage was annulled....
My question is this:
Since Divorce was unheard of by the Catholic Church, at that time in history..
How were these first marriages ended?
Were they the results a broken marriage CONTRACTS,
