The Lauzon family in the latest generation were living at Sturgeon Falls ON. Joseph Télésphore Augustin Lauzon was baptized 11 May 1891 at Notre Dame de la Salette in Papineau and the son of Augustin Lauzon and Hélèna Brunet who were married 17 Sep 1889 at Notre Dame de la Salette. Télésphore married Mary Dora Lanoie 23 May 1910 at Sturgeon Falls.
Augustin Lauzon was baptized 21 Oct 1865 at St Grégoire de Nazianze in Buckingham and the son of Joseph Lauzon and Rosalie Thibaut. Joseph and Rosalie were married 26 Nov 1860 at St Grégoire de Nazianze.
Joseph was the son of Joseph Augustin Lauzon and Clémence Chaumont who were themselves married 24 Feb 1829 at Ste Anne des Plaines, Terrebonne. Joseph died 18 Mar 1893 at Ottawa ON.
Joseph Augustin Lauzon was born at Terrebonne (baptism to be found) and the son of Joseph Lauzon and Marie Catherine Fontigney dite St Jean. Joseph and Marie Catherine were married 30 Jul 1781 at Terrebonne. Joseph was baptized 3 Dec 1754 at Ste Rose and the son of Gilles Lauzon and Marie Anne Viau dit Lesperance who were themselves married 7 Feb 1752 at Rivière des Prairies near Montréal. Gilles was baptized 29 Jan 1723 at Rivière des Prairies.
Tanguay also verifies the marriage of Joseph Augustin and Marie Catherine in 1781 and then the father of Joseph Augustin as Gilles Lauzon married to Marie Anne Viau dit Lesperance. Gilles parents were Gilles Lauzon and Marie-Anne Groulx who married 25 Nov 1709 at Rivière des Prairies. This Gilles' parents were Gilles Lauzon and Marie Archambault who married 27 Nov 1656 at Montréal. Gilles was born in France and so he is Generation 1 in New France.
The present generation is descended from three sons of Gilles Lauzon and Marie Archambault.
Gilles married Marie-Anne Groulx (as above). Their son Gilles as above is Generation 2. Their daughter Catherine Lauzon married François Guerin dit Laneuville 29 Jan 1748 at Rivière des Prairies and is in Generation 2.
Michel Lauzon married Marie Anne Coiteux dit St Jean 15 Mar 1702 at Pointe aux Trembles and is Generation 2. Three of their children are ancestors of the present generation. Marie Anne Lauzon married Joseph Rouleau 21 Jan 1737 at Rivière des Prairies and is Generation 2. Marie Josephte Lauzon married Joseph Biroleau dit Lafleur 22 Jan 1731 at Riviére des Prairies and is Generation 2. Pierre Lauzon married Marie Jeanne Roy 12 Oct 1732 at Pointe Claire and is Generation 2 and their daughter Marie Jeanne Lauzon married Louis Daragon 8 Feb 1779 at Ste Geneviève (Pierrefonds) and is Generation 3.
Paul Lauzon married Marie Anne Quenneville 4 Nov 1697 at Basilique de Notre Dame, Montréal and is Generation 2. Two of their daughters are ancestors of the present generation. Madeleine Marie Lauzon married Pierre Brien dit Desrochers 12 Jan 1739 at Rivière des Prairies and is Generation 3. Marie Catherine Lauzon married François Chartran 20 Oct 1732 at Rivière des Prairies and is Generation 3.
Gilles Lauzon married to Marie Anne Viau dit Lesperance is Generation 3.
Joseph Lauzon married to Marie Catherine Fontigney dite St Jean is Generation 4.
Joseph Augustin Lauzon married to Clémence Chaumont is Generation 5.
Joseph Lauzon married to Rosalie Thibaut is Generation 6.
Augustin Lauzin married to Hélèna Brunet is Generation 7.
Joseph Telesphore Augustin Lauzon married to Mary Dora Lanoie is Generation 8. Their daughter is Generation 9.
Work to be done on the Lauzon family includes collecting all the baptism, marriage and burial records plus the census returns.

Backing up material
I decided to back up my files yesterday and was somewhat surprised to discover that I have, in the last couple of weeks of researching our son-in-law's family downloaded 4 GB of images. Certainly my file system has greatly enlarged with 84 sub-folders as compared to just eight sub-folders a couple of weeks ago. Every folder has a number of images amounting in total to 4.44 GB. I haven't reached a point where I have any text documents in any of these folders - still gathering information from ancestry.
I have a couple of lines that elude me and I expect it will be a lot of parish register reading to find the items. I will go to Library and Archives Canada one of these days to have a look at the Family Histories that have been submitted to them. For the most part I have been working on virgin territory for many of his lines back into the late 1700s. At that point I am picking up work submitted to ancestry or world connect or family webpages that have assisted me. I continue to check out each reference but there is some really good work out there on French Canadian lines.
I also want to go to the Library at Ottawa University to check out their French Canadian historical material. I am still very new to French Canadian Research and do not know all the records available to me to work on his lines. He has many many marriages in Quebec City and Montreal in the mid 1600s. He has many many soldiers in his lines. The latest I discovered the other day was Féréole Doutre who arrived in the later part of the 1750s probably in the troop increase allotment due to the Seven Years War with England in which Québec was ultimately signed over to the English in exchange for colonies in the West Indes.
Féréole married Marie Cecile Forgette dite Despatie 28 Feb 1775 at Terrebonne. Finding Marie Cecile Forgette dite Despatie proved to be a challenge but fortunately the priest recorded the parents of both in the marriage lines.
Parents of Féréole Doutre were Joseph D'Outre and Francisca Sobraques married in France.
Parents of Marie Cecile Forgette dite Despatie were Jean Baptiste Despatie dit Forgette and Marie-Anne Ménard (and this is the first record of the Ménard family in this family grouping). Jean Baptiste and Marie-Anne married 29 Oct 1738 at Ste Famille, Boucherville.
On the marriage registration of Jean Baptiste Despatie dit Forgette and Marie-Anne Ménard the priest recorded the parents of this couple and it is here that the names switched (i.e. Despatie dit Forgette).
Parents of Jean Baptiste Despatie dit Forgette were Jean Baptiste Forgette and Jeanne Beaudouin. Jean Baptiste and Jeanne married 22 Nov 1700 at Repentigny.
Again I was able to extract the names of their parents from the Parish Register.
Parents of Jean Baptiste Forgette were Nicolas Forgette dite Despatie and Marie Madeleine Martin. Nicolas and Marie Madeleine married 6 Feb 1653 at Québec City and their parents were recorded in the Parish Register.
Parents of Nicolas Forgette dite Despatie were Paul Forgette and Nicole Chevalier of Alençon France.
Parents of Marie Madeleine Martin were Abraham Martin and Marguerite Langlois who were also married in France.
This repeats some of my post of the other day but I wanted to go through it all again and I find that easier to do on my blog so that I do not lose any of the details that I have collected. I work on so many lines it is easy to misplace details if I am away from one particular line for a few days or weeks. That was my reason to start blogging although the last couple of months I have blogged less frequently, I will likely go back to my daily blog once again.
Looking at the parents of Jeanne Beaudouin who had married Jean Baptiste Despatie dit Forgette 22 Nov 1700 at Repentigny, the priest listed them as Jean Baudouyn and Charlotte Chauvin (born 5 Apr 1651 Montréal) and they married 27 Nov 1663 at Notre-Dame Montréal.
Parents of Jean Baudouyn were Jean Baudouyn and Jeanne Berthet.
Parents of Charlotte Chauvin were Michel Chauvain and Anne Archambault who had married 27 Jul 1647 at Notre-Dame, Québec. The priest had listed the names of their parents in France.
Michel Chauvain's parents were Gabriel Chauvain and Marie Arouard.
Anne Archambault's parents were Jacques Archambault and Françoise Toros.
Going back now to Marie-Anne Ménard who had married Jean Baptiste Despatie dit Forgette 29 Oct 1738 at Ste Famille Boucherville, the priest listed her parents on the marriage lines.
Parents of Marie-Anne Ménard were Louis Ménard dit Lafontaine and Marie Anne Février who married 12 Dec 1691 at Boucherville. The parents of this couple were listed on the marriage lines.
Parents of Louis Ménard dit Lafontaine were Jacques Ménard dit Lafontaine and Catherine Fovether (sp).
Parents of Marie Anne Février were Kristoffe Février and Marie Martin. I found the second marriage of Kristoffe a couple of years after the birth of Marie Anne Février 22 Jun 1676 at Boucherville. I have not yet found his first marriage with Marie Martin. This is the second Martin in this time frame Marie Madeleine Martin married Nicolas Forgette dite Despatie 6 Feb 1653 at Québec.
The Forgette family had eluded me for some time until I noticed the Despatie dit name and then I was able to quickly move back. I may attempt a look at the French records to see if I am able to learn anything about Joseph Doutre and his wife Francisca Sobraques parents of Féréole Doutre who arrived in New France towards the end of the 1750s as a soldier. He died 29 Mar 1824 at the Hopital général des Soeurs Grises in Montréal.
Again I am looking at the Olivier Gagnon line. He married Josephte Doutre (grand daughter of Féréole Doutre) 26 Jun 1844 at Saint-Luc, Curran, Prescott, Ontario. His death registration states that he was born at Berthier in 1811. I decided to have a look at the registers and found an Olivier Genton baptized there 17 May 1810 with parents Joseph Genton and Elizabeth Moreau. However Gagnon is quite aways from Genton I rather think. I shall have to continue checking. I also noted that in his burial lines the priest has mentioned that he was almost 90 years old when he was buried 13 Mar 1900. This would make the 17 May 1810 date quite interesting. But why would he change his name from Genton to Gagnon. Was it an enumerator error? Would Olivier had spoken with an accent that made Genton sound like Gagnon? Considering they would have been English speaking enumerators in the Plantagenent area this could be a possibility. However, I will keep it on the backburner whilst I hunt out other possibilities. Finding their marriage lines is a high priority since the priest would likely have been French speaking and would have spelled his surname correctly.

Doutre family
Still working on the Matte-Gagnon family, I decided to continue working on Josephte Doutre as I was having no luck at all with Olivier Gagnon.
Josephte Doutre is named Josette Doutre on the census. She was born at Plantagenet ON 5 Jan 1825 and baptized 9 Feb 1825 at Montébello (the priest duly recorded that she had been born at Plantagenet which was most helpful). Her parents were Etienne Denis Doutre and Victoire Lalonde from her baptism and the marriage which I obtained online (can not find on ancestry yet) 26 Jun 1844 at Saint Luc, Curran, Prescott County, Ontario. Although I prefer to find the marriage, finding Josephte's baptism which agrees with the online record of Etienne Doutre as her father and Victoire Lalonde as her mother I decided to find their marriage. Etienne Doutre and Victoire Lalonde were married at St Michel, Vaudreuil 4 Feb 1822. She was his second marriage.
Parents of Etienne Doutre: Féréole Doutre and Marie Cecile Forgette dite Despatie who married 28 Feb 1775 at Terrebonne. He was a soldier sent from France in the late 1750s.
Féréole Doutre parents were: Joseph Doutre and Francisca Sobraques.
Marie Cecile Forgette dite Despatie's parents were Jean Baptiste Despatie dit Forgette and Marie-Anne Ménard. They were married 29 Oct 1738 at Ste Famille, Boucherville. I continued tracing back through the Despatie dit Forgette and Ménard families.
Looking at Jean Baptiste Despatie dit Forgette and his parents were: Jean Baptiste Forgette and Jeanne Beaudouin and they married 22 Nov 1700 at Repentigny. Continuing with the Forgette dite Despatie line, the parents of Jean Baptiste were Nicolas Forgette dite Despatie and Marie Madeleine Martin who married at Québec City 6 Feb 1653. Nicolas' parents were Paul Forgette and Nicole Chevalier who married in France. Marie Madeleine Martin's parents were Abraham Martin and Marguerite Langlois and they married in France. I need to find baptisms for all of these individuals.
Then looking at Jeanne Beaudouin's parents who were: Jean Baudouyn and Charlotte Chauvin. They married the 27 Nov 1663 at Notre-Dame, Montréal. Surprisingly the baptism of Charlotte Chauvin was 5 Apr 1651 at Montréal (which would make her only 12 years old so perhaps the baptism was delayed). Her parents were Michel Chauvain and Anne Archambault who married 27 July 1647 at Québec City. Their marriage records their parents as Gabriel Chauvain and Marie Arouard and Jacques Archambault and Francoise Toros (both recorded as parishes in France). Jean Baudouyn's parents were Jean Baudouyn and Jeanne Berthet (recorded as parishes in France).
Now to try and find Olivier Gagnon's line tomorrow.

French Canadian ancestry - Lauzon
I had a very successful day looking at the Lauzon family and discovered a tree online which I shall pursue with the actual records. I tend to do genealogy from the respect of what others have done before me. The Lauzon family has been quite researched I have discovered with at least five distinct trees online tracing back to the founding couple Pierre Lauzon and Anne Boivin. The line I am looking at descends through their son Gilles and Marie Archambault, their son Gilles and Marie-Anne Grolx, their son Gilles and Marie Anne Viau dit Lesperance, their son Joseph and Marie Catherine Fontigney dite St Jean. This marriage I have found on Drouin and was the point that I was at in my research yesterday when I found the earlier information where I now need to locate the records. I have the marriage for Augustin (son of Joseph and Marie Catherine) who married Clemence Chaumont to their son Joseph married to Rosalie Thibaut. Their son Augustin married Hélèna Brunet at Notre Dame de la Salette, Papineau and their eldest son Joseph Telesphore Augustin Lauzon married Dora Lanoie at Sturgeon Falls in 1910. I wondered if this was correct but my good fortune yesterday was to find Augustin and Hélèna at Sturgeon Falls on the 1901 census so this marriage is now working for the tree.
I now have all the information for the tree for the Lauzon family back nine generations (chart is nine generations) once I find all the records before the marriage of Joseph Lauzon and Marie Catherine Fontigney dite St Jean. I would also like to find all the baptisms and burials before I actually give the chart away. I am still lacking information on some of the feeder lines into this family Brunet, Constantineau, Deguire dit LaRose, Brunet dit Lalang, Lanoie, Boileau, Rhéaume, and St Armour. For the first four I need two generations and for the next four I need three generations. So still quite a bit of work.
That still leaves me with three other main lines (Grégoire, Bédard and Mourier). I already know the Mourier line will be more difficult because the furtherest back member that I have traced thus far was born in France in 1845 (although still four generations have been born in Canada!). Amazingly in this entire family that I have researched thus far this is the only individual not born in Canada until we get back into the 1600s (earliest baptism thus far is 1639). An amazing number of French Canadian families (no duplicates thus far) is part of this entire tree. I am putting the emphasis on this research now because of the new baby coming in the spring (our daughter's first niece or nephew, her husband's brother's child). It would be so nice to have a chart all ready for the baby.
Today I shall find the proofs for the Lauzon family and then continue working on the other feeder families for this particular main line.
