Subject: [COULOMBE-L] Moise COULOMBE - Corrections

I received this today from this wonderful woman.  Please note that the
information Paul Coulombe has in his book regarding Moise is incorrect for
those who want to update their records.  No wonder I have been going
bonkers!

: hi Ellen Marie,
: 
:        I went to the library today as i promised i would. I did try to
: unravel your mystery. I managed to find some errors, but now i am
: stumped on another.. Here goes. first of all  this information was
: either found in the marriage repertoires or the Blue Drouins., if you
: have further questions please don't hesitate to ask.
:
:        Now, as for Albert coulombe  he was not married to all those
: women, it was his father Moise.
:
: Moise Coulombe married 1)  Celina Marcotte  9 may 1866 St. Paul de
: Chester, Arthabaska.
:
: his parents are Jean Baptiste  & Marie Prince
: her parents are Michel Marcotte & Appoline Guertin
: 
: Moises' married 2) Clarisse Poisson  29 apr 1895  Ham Nord Wolfe     he was the
: widower of Celina.... Clarisse  was the widow of  Octave Moras
:
: Moises' married 3) Philomene Cote   6 Oct 1913 Ham Nord Wolfe     he was the
: widower of Clarisse Poisson and Philomene was the widow of Marcellin Roy.
:  
:  So this solves the problem of whom the wives belong to!!
:
:
: Marriage of Albert
: 
: Albert Coulombe  (25) (Moses & Celina Marcotte)
: Delia Boucher  (23)   (Michel & Addie FRechet)
: married 26 feb 1900 New Bedford Ma. NOT St. Hyacinthe.  The priest was
: William Cullen from St. Hyacinthe. There are no other children or
: siblings of either married in New Bedford.
: 
: This is where the mystery begins!!!
:
