Biography

Cécile Godin was born about 1698, in Acadie, daughter of Pierre Godin and Catherine Pellerin. [1] She was possibly born in Beaubassin where she was recorded at age 2 in the 1700 census. [2]

Cécile (25) married Guillaume Rouleau (22). Their marriage contract was signed before Abel Michon, notary, on 8 January 1722 in St-Pierre-de-la-Rivière-du-Sud, Canada, Nouvelle-France. No record was found for their religious marriage which also took place on 8 January 1722 at an undetermined location. [3][4][5][6]

Their known children were:

  1. Marie Rouleau (1722– )
  2. Geneviève Marie Rouleau (1723–1758)
  3. Catherine Marie Rouleau (~1725–~1801)
  4. Guillaume Rouleau (1728–1730)
  5. Joseph-Marie Rouleau (1730–~1799)
  6. Jean-Baptiste Rouleau (1732– )
  7. François Joseph Rouleau (1733–1812)
  8. Jacques Rouleau (1735–1736)
  9. Pierre Rouleau (1737–1800)
  10. Félicité Marie Rouleau (~1739–1794)
  11. Charles Rouleau (1741– )
  12. Marie-Rose Rouleau (~1744–1787)

Cécile died in 1756. Her burial took place on 6 April 1756 in St-François-de-la-Rivière-du-Sud. [7][8] The date of her death was not noted in the register. She was given the age of 60 years.

Research Notes

There are discrepancies concerning the date of marriage. In DGFA, 9 January. Several other reliable sources indicate 8 January.

Could not access the marriage contract online via Ancestry or BAnQ, archives de notaires.

She was most likely born in Beaubassin.

It is quite possible, since Cécile's family was living there in 1700 when she was only 2 years of age. However, Stephen White does not give a location for her birth in the Dictionnaire généalogique des familles acadiennes.

Merge for both Guillaume Rouleau, Rouleau-312 into Rouleau-152 have been proposed.

Duplicate spouse.

Investigation is needed about duplicate spouse Guillaume Rouleau (Rouleau-312 and Rouleau-152).

Gaudin-164 and Gaudin-163 appear to represent the same person because: 1722 is the wrong death date - most of the children were born after this date.
