Theriault Marriages Extracted from Canadian Family Tree (1) | Theriault, A.J. to Theriault, Cyrille Pierre

This is the first in a series of posts in which I share marriages from my database where the groom was a Theriault. I have excluded material that is already widely available from the early Acadian years as well as most recent marriages taking place in the mid to late 20th century. This index will be most useful to those studying the genealogy of Quebec Theriaults from the 1800s to the 1920s.  This is a Finding Aid, therefore – beginners in particular - should read these notes and contact me for more information if necessary:

1. SURNAMES I have regularized the spelling of many surnames. For instance, in the real world Theriault appears under many guises including Therriault, Tario, Terrio, Theriot etc. Also, when you find multiple surnames separated by “  /  ” it does not necessarily mean that the particular individual was known by both names. In many cases it is a “dit” name that serves as a reference point to the original settler. In other cases it is alternate spelling.

2.  NAMES  The forenames of Joseph or Mary (Marie) have been dropped.

3.  DATES    Usually,

  • an about date  (or theyear without the month) means that I have suppressed information to respect intellectual copyright
  • an est. or bef. date means the couple are listed as parents on the marriage certificate of their offspring and I haven’t been able to connect them to the larger Theriault family tree.

4.  LOCATIONS have also been regularized in the sense that original places have been recorded, but they are embedded in today’s regions. In Quebec this means that there may be a county listing as well as the larger administrative regions that exist today. Beginners take note: Many genealogists note only the traditional place names. You’ll need to decide what’s best for you.
