birth jeanne lepoivre (written lepouevre , as it was pronounced in thoses days)19 july 1704 in St Aquilin de Corbion to jean lepouevre and Catherine (Chatrine)Espert godfather René Duchesne , sieur du bison ,godmother Madeleine (madlaine) Lepouèvre  from the parish of Solignie (Soligny):
but I found another Jeanne lepoivre born 16 march 1704 in st ouen de secherouvre, orne.
In order to know for certain which one was your ancestor I should look for a marriage contract .

unfortunately the marriage contracts aren't digitized for the Orne departement.
