Brazeau and Quenneville Ancestors

Note: In addition to what is shown here, far more detailed research of the Brazeau family can be found on René Brazeau's site. We have not incorporated their research into this page, leaving our own earlier-derived sources intact, however comparison of data here to their site is highly recommended.

Following is a summary of the source of various data on the Brazeau and Quenneville Ancestors. Dates on the far left are just approximate to give one a general time frame:

     I'll put this information in my genealogy program and fill in the
blanks when I have access to the LDS computer.  We're limited to one hour
at a time - I visit the Library on Wednesdays when possible.

     Also need to check IGI files and get copies of the original records.

I copied 4 sources for the above records:
Rosemary Byard - 860 Kings Arms Way - Alpharetta, Ga. 30201  (404-993-9249)

Location: St. Clair, Michigan

Doing family history on the Brazeau's.  Got back to Nicholas 1 who
married Perette Billard he [see below] was born 1635 and died 8-20-1705
around Montreal. I show three children Charles born around 1662
and married 10-5-1693 to Genevieve Quenneville. Nicolas born around
1670 married Anne Pinsonneau 10-11-1694, and Marie born around 1683
and married to a _______ Francoeur or something. My father was
Freeman Wayne Brozo, Grandfather Joseph (youngest of 17), Great
grandgfather Friman/freeman Brazeau who married Elizabeth
Germain in Buffalo around 1852.  His brother Narcisse/Nelson
married sister of elizabeth Evangeline Germain.

To: Bill Choisser

The dates refer to Perette Billard.  They were from copies made by a distant 
cousin and I believe they came out of the Tanguay's dictionary geneological 
of Canadian families the Elysee edition.  She, the distant cousin was 
descended from Jean Bruseau from the area of Pointe aux Trembles and his 
parents Jean and Marie supposedly came from LaRochelle, France.  I also see 
that there is Charles 1 b. 1662 died 4-25-1750 married to Genevieve 
Quenneville on 10-5-1693.  Her father was Jean 1.  Charles and Genevieve have 
listed 4-children: Gabriel b. 9-8-1694, Marie Catherine b. 1-14-1695, Paul b. 
10-22-1697 and Pierre b. 10-19-1699.

Hi everyone,

I just got a short note from a Gladys Choisser who lives in Bethesda,
Maryland.
Her husband passed away recently.  His name was Robert V. Choisser.

She did send me some genealogical information.  According to her, Jean
Quenneville's parents were Pierre and Jeannie Saye.  Denise Marie's parents
were also Pierre and Jeanne Lord.
