Evelyn in Montreal: Joseph Boileau m. Sophie Minier (Meunier/Mignier/Lagace) Pt.2
EVELYN IN MONTREAL posts detail my “conversations” with other family history researchers.
These are three marriages of the offpsring of Francois Meunier & Sophie Henrichon. You will see that three marriages = three variations of the same surname!
In addition, there are three marriages listed as the children of a Francois Lagace and Sophie Henrichon between 1866 and 1875 – probably the same family? It bears investigation.

Evelyn in Montreal: Joseph Boileau m. Sophie Minier (Meunier/Mignier/Lagace), Pt.1
Lyse contacted me in a comment box this morning. She has a Joseph Boileau who ties into some Miniers and was curious about that line. I enjoyed looking into this because almost all my work deals with the Lagace/Mignier branches, so it was a great opportunity to check into the Meuniers to Miniers line.

If you want to continue climbing the tree, you can go to Mignier dit Lagace: The Next Generations (Part 2) and you will find Jean Baptiste listed under his parents (61) Bernard Jean Mignier/Lagace and his second wife Madeleine Dumont who were married in St-Anne-de-la-Pocatiere, Quebec in 1747. This lineage then continues in The Mignier dit Lagaces from Poitou-Charentes to Nouvelle France: Beginnings (Part 1)
