Moise Potvin, Sr. and Arzelie (Quintin) had more than just 3 children.They had 9 children:
Moise was the son of Emeri Poitevin dit Potvin, Sr. and Rose Anna (Pare) Potvin (nickname "Rosalie" - Rosalie was not her given name!)
From my family tree program:
1. ARZELIE QUINTIN( dau of FRANCOIS XAVIER) was born Abt. 1855, and died Aft. September 06, 1890.
She married MOISE POTVIN, SR. April 05, 1875 in St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada, son of EMERI POTVIN, Sr. and ROSE PARE.He was born May 21, 1853 in St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada.
Children of ARZELIE QUINTIN and MOISE POTVIN, Sr. are:
1. MOISE POTVIN, JR., b. January 06, 1876, St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada.
2. MARIE ARZELIE POTVIN, b. March 11, 1877, St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada.
3. ANGELINE POTVIN, b. December 29, 1878, St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada.
4. FRANCOIS POTVIN, b. April 22, 1880, St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada.
5. JEAN BAPTISTE OCTAVE POTVIN, b. September 16, 1881, St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada.
6. ROSE ANNA POTVIN, b. May 28, 1886, St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada.
7. JOSEPH ANTONIO POTVIN, b. November 27, 1887, St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec.
8. MARIE EUGENIE POTVIN, b. February 07, 1889, St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada; d. August 07, 1890, St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada.
9. LEONIE MARIE REINE POTVIN, b. September 06, 1890, St. Romuald, Farnham, Missisquoi Co., Quebec, Canada.
And for those who have stated in this Potvin message board that Emery (FRENCH correct spelling is Emeri)is not a common name.That is incorrect.Emeri is a very common French name, especially during a period between abt. 1830 to 1930!
Also, for those searching Potvin family members..be careful and check the data you find or are given against records because first/given names are repeated over and over again in the descendancy line. There are quite a few Emeri Potvins and many other names in the Potvin line that I have seen repeated over and over again.
Hope this information helps.
