Help with French Canadian Burial Record Please COMPLETED
« on: Wednesday 14 May 14 20:00 BST (UK) »
I have the burial record for George Dowle,
Pretty sure the date is 7 April 1921,
after that I'm struggling until
St Louis the body of George Dowle son of Edward Dowle then some _ _ _ for where his mothers name should be.
Then I'm struggling again & I'm not sure if the name is a person, or a place, (If it's a wife, it's not the one we have him marrying in 1910)
then I get 36 years.
I think the next part is those present Ovide Rocheleau & Charles Rocheleau but can't get the bit after that.

Can anybody help me with this please?
Regards
Chris

Makes perfect sense now I've seen the original deciphered (& the translation)  ;D

I was expecting to see his wife's name on it.

They married in 1910 but I have nothing more on them until this burial record.
The witnesses on it were his brother in law, & nephew.

Thank you so much

Cheers
Chris
