Hi Len. I doubt that Charles jr was the first child born in L'Assomption because his father (maybe) was born in 1789 and married in L'Assomption in 1817 so Charles jr could not be born before then. The parish opened 1724 so I don't think the first baptism occured 93 years after that. Even Charles junior can't be the first born in L'Assomption parish.
It must be some other Parish in L'Assomption COUNTY such as St-Roch founded in 1787 or Ste-Anne-des-Plaines Co. Terrebonne founded in 1788 or Ste-Therese founded in 1789, and that note must apply to the father, not the son. For Philomene I believe she is Felonise and that Joseph and Jules Bleau are the same person, subject to further investigation.
Tell me if you find proof that they are distinct persons. The only solid proof is the church record, not printed data.
Talk to you later.
