Historical Document: Jean Baptiste Raiontonni (aka Canadien) m. Malvina McComber (Caughnawaga, 1863)

According to the St-Francois-Xavier of Laprairie parish registers (1862-1875), Jean Baptiste Raientonni and Malvina Mccomber were married on the 16th of February 1863 in Caughnawaga (aka Kahnawake). The groom was of legal age. His father was already deceased (and possibly his mother as the wording is unclear to me).Witnesses included a Charles Gedeon Giasson and Leon Gasson. Also a Louis Thaiekewat (?).
