Fafard/Longval 1685-1688
Hi, I have a question concerning the daughters of Louis Fafard-dit-Laframboise, Sieur de Longval and Marie Lucas-dit-Dontigni married on 10 Nov 1671.Louis was my 7th great grandfather.
Someone sent me a copy of a page from a book published in 1911 written by a Nun.The girl that sent me this copied page takes this as positive proof and said that PRDH and I are wrong and perhaps we are.
I originally had the same information as in the nun's book.That was because when I first started out I used Renee Jette as my reference. I do not know where the Nun got her information.Then I changed it to what PRDH has. The person sending me the information beleives that the nun's information comes from the Monastère des Ursulines des Trois Rivières' records.
Jette's says that Marie Francoise born on 24 Oct 1685 was the nun and that her sister Marguerite-Therese-ditte-Marie born on 1 Aug 1688 was the one married to Noel Trottier in 1688 at Trois Rivieres.
The nun's book also says that the nun born in 1685 died in (April) 1788.This would make her 102 years old.
PRDH has Marie-Francoise Fafard-dit-Longval born in 1685 as being married to Noel Trottier, Sieur De LaBissonniere.
PRDH has Therese-Marie-Marguerite Fafard-dit-Longval born in 1688 and died in 1762 as the nun.
I assume that PRDH is right. Does anyone know for sure and if Jette was wrong was a correction ever made to his records?
If someone would help me out with this information, I would be very happy.Thanks, Janet
