Delphine Caroline Genest was the daughter of Joseph Genest and Caroline Gauvin. She was born 7 November 1852 and baptized the next day in Saint-Raymond, in modern-day Québec. Her godparents were recorded as Charles Gauvin and Marguerite Gauvin; it is likely that these were her maternal grandparents, Charles Gauvin and Marguerite Morand.[1]
Delphine Caroline died 1 November 1860. On the 1861 Census, her cause of death was stated to be "gripe" (flu).[2] She was buried 3 November 1860 in St-Raymond.[3]
Notes
Her burial record writes her name as "Marie Carolline," but her baptism record has "Delphine Caroline" and the 1861 Census has "Delphine."
