Help[Facts] Re: Osithe
in reply to a message by namebug
My great grandfather Ferdinand Brow had a grandmother named Osithe St. Marie. This is what I know about her:
Joseph III and Marie Anne's last child was Nazaire (Narcée) Brault, born in 1809 in
Laprairie. In 1836, he married Osithe Sainte Marie, daughter of Joseph St. Marie and
Félicité Lemieux. She was born in 1811 in Laprairie. They farmed in Notre Dame Parish
in Laprairie at least until 1853. Their 8 children (5 sons, 3 daughters) were born in
Laprairie. All but one lived to adulthood and marriage. By 1861, the family had moved to
St. Antoine Abbé, Chateauguay, Québec. It is unknown when or where Nazaire and
Osithe died.
Note: Joseph III is the 6th generation descendant of Vincent Brault (Brot or Beraud or Brau or Breau) who was born in about 1629 in the Department of Vienne in central France. Vincent
sailed to Acadie (now Nova Scotia) from the port of La Rochelle on Easter Sunday in 1652. His descendants were all born either in Canada or the US (beginning with Ferdinand who was born in 1868 in Malone, Franklin Co., NY. He moved as a
child with his parents to Leelanau Co. in Michigan.
