Louis Therrein was his wife Marguerite Davis or Danis

Question

Can someone decipher handwriting for Therrien-56?

<ref>"New Hampshire Marriage Records, 1637-1947," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FL8Q-6CD : 2 April 2020), Louie Therrien in entry for Wm Houle and Georgina Therrien, 12 May 1902; citing , , New Hampshire, Bureau of Vital Records and Health Statistics, Concord; FHL microfilm 2,069,317.</ref>

1.  Was his wife Marguerite Davis or Danis?  Her name is listed twice as the mother of the bride.

2.  Was the husband named William Houle or William Houde?

Comments

Houde and Houle get continually confused with each other, you may see one record using one form and the next using the other, and it's obvious they are the same people.

FS are only giving you the image from the central registry and not the actual marriage record on there, plus their reading of the names on the original.

Louis Therien, widower of Amanda Vadeboncoeur, married Henriette Danis, daughter of Emmanuel Danis and of Josephte Dauphiné, on 10 July 1876 in St-David-d'Yamaska. https://www.genealogiequebec.com/fr/LAFRANCE/carte/6305 map of location (free access)

Thank you!  This started as a simple -- heh, heh -- sourcing of the unsourced profile for Houle in New Hampshire.  This information is really helpful

Louis Therien, son of Jean Baptiste Therien and of Adeline Chatigny (residents of Stoneham), married Marie Amanda Vadeboncoeur, daughter of David Vadeboncoeur and of the late Delima Germain (of St-David-d'Yamaska), on 28 Aug 1871 in St-David-d'Yamaska.  Both listed of age.

No isue apparent from the marriage, but indexing of births, baptisms and funerals don't cover this period yet.

I can't find a baptism for Louis Therien with the date on the profile at all, and the census linked there for him in 1871 puts him in wrong location from all I can see of the family, he is in Yamaska in 1871, clearly listed as residing there on his marriage with Amanda.  Not at all near L'Assomption or St-Lin.  https://www.genealogiequebec.com/fr/LAFRANCE/carte/6305 map showing St-Lin.

That census is thus not for him.  It's not a rare name.

Thank you, I have removed the 1871 census reference.

Thank you, Frank!  I had found this record in Family Search and, well, squinted at the handwriting in cursive.
