Miscouche, PEI
(St. John the Baptist)
1817 - 1887
Using LDS film #862450, I extracted the Pitre entries for baptisms, marriages, and burials. The registers were at times somewhat difficult to read and the spelling was sometimes difficult to decipher. The early registers are in French, eventually changing over to English.
The extracts below contain the essential information of event, date, person and parents, as well as sponsors and witnesses. My setup is fairly straightforward, but if any entry or abbreviation causes confusion, please contact me for explanation.
