RESEARCH

Per Sandra Landry: "There is still some doubt that Pascal, the father of Joseph William, belongs in this family. Recent searches by Terri Gilmore and Patrick Gagnon produced results that do not conflict with any known fact. The pieces of the puzzle seem to fit together this way, but it must continue to be questioned."

"From the location of baptism and marriage records, it appears that Pascal moved his family from Kamouraska, leaving behind many Landry relatives, to Bernier County about 1830-1840."
