Hi
I`m not sure if this will help because I`m not sure which dates Louis Romain is associated with... but I found some info on Augustin Romain 1860-1939 of Meteghan Station, Digby N.S..
His parents are listed as Etienne Romain and Henrietta Le Blanc
I also have info from the marriage certificate for his daughter Rita Romain and Joseph Melanson.
Maybe in the research, it will turn out they are directly related : )
Hope it helps.
