The parents of Benjamin Quesnel thus being identified as Antoine Quesnel and Eugénie Roquebrun who were themselves married  25 Oct 1790 at Vaudreuil. Not finding this exact name for the wife of Antoine Quesnel I decided to pull a couple of extra documents just to ensure that I had the correct marriage of Antoine Quesnel.The burial of Antoine Quesnel names his wife as Marguerite Roquebrun. Between the marriage and the burial certificates it would appear that the correct person has been located.
