Research Notes
The Baptismal Registration gives his birth date as August 16, 1842 while the Death Registration gives it as August 15, 1842.
The marriage date of January 15, 1867 may not be accurate. The month was difficult to decipher on the Marriage Registration.
My sources show he had 2 children whom I assume were twins though their birth registrations give birth dates 1 month off of the other.
The Birth Registration for Louis Amirault gives a birth date of May 18, 1869
The Birth Registration for Louise Amirault shows a birth date of June 18, 1869
Both Birth Registrations show the same parents.
Louis shows up on the 1871 Census, and is never mentioned again. Louise is not on the 1871 Census, but is on the following 5 Censuses.
If not twins, then perhaps they are one and the same person.
