Guay Line - Nova Francia (Quebec), Canada


Dear Joshua, you didn't mention on the phone whether you are a member of our society or not. There is a fee for research at our library of $25. I will e-mail you the data you asked for but would appreciate a check for that amount mailed to Susan Paquette at FCGSC po bx 928 Tolland, CT 06084-0928. Thank you. Now here is what I came up with so far. Demerise Guay was the daughter of Joseph and Henriette (Laliberte) Guay. She married Philippe Lemieux the son of Louis Lemieux and Esther (Girard) Lemieux. They were married August 25, 1874 at St. Etienne de Lauzon, Levi County, Quebec. (Source: Drouin Book Vol 29-females) I didn't realize that you were requesting her line specifcally so I traced the Lemieux line all the way back to Gabriel Lemieux son of Louis and Marie Lugan de St. Michel, Rouen, Normandy, France and his 2nd wife, Marthe Beauregard daughter of Jean and Marie (Desmarais) Beauregard of St. Patrice de Rouen, Normandy, France. They were married 1671 Nov.26 in Quebec by Contract Notary Becquet. If you want the whole Lemieux line I will send it on as well. If you wish me to proceed on the Quay line I will. Sincerely, Susan Paquette Head Researcher for FCGSC.
