Question: Ancestry world version, translate a record!?
Clement Dauphinais appears in the World version of ancestry!.com, in an 1838 document in Quebec, which appears to name his parents as Francois Dauphinais and !?Marguerite!? Cannot make out her last name (Graveline!?) or the rest of the text!.
I have the image!.!. but not subscribed to World version, so cannot link here!.!. But I very much would appreciate someone looking at this, and translating from French, if possible!.
This find is totally mind boggling!. This link is a brick wall for over 25 yrs, that no one could find!. The amazing thing is that I didn't post it, but mentioned it in passing in a reply to another question!.!. with no expectation!. Someone not only saw my comment, but FOUND the record we have wanted, for YEARS!. It is amazing, for the fact of how a record or fact can come from unexpected places!.
Terry B!.!. you are an angel, and have thanks from the entire Dolphay family for finding this golden brick!. You went above and beyond anything I could have wished!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hi Wendy C,
I am SO glad I could help!

It's VERY difficult to read that handwriting, but here's my best effort at translation, with uncertainties regarding the handwriting in brackets (my B!.A!. was in Spanish and French)!. :o)

Clement Dauphinais
The 1st November one thousand eight hundred thirty-eight, we have [etoupagne'!? coupagne'!?] baptized Clement born [fuer!?!-maybe in or outside of!?] a legitimate marriage of Francois Dauphinais and Marguerite [Beard!? Beaurd!? Beaurdreau!? Geaurdreau!?], godfather Marcel Magnan, godmother Marie Lafrenay, [cleatres!?]!.

Here's the French version of what I was able to make out, just in case this helps another person's attempt at translation:

Clement Dauphinais
Le premier novembre, mil huitcent trent huit, nous [ocure' etoupagne'!?] avons baptise' Clement ne' [fuer en!?] legitime mariage de Francois Dauphinais et de Marguerite [Beaurdreau!?] parrain Marcel Magnan, marraine Marie Lafrenay, [clectres!?]!.

I did use www!.freetranslation!.com to try to identify each of the non-surname words in brackets above, and used several varieties of what I thought those letters might be, but that's as far as I got!.!.!.

Best of luck in deciphering the rest of that handwriting!

P!.S!.: Multiple individual records for Marie Lafrenay and Marcel Magnan in the Quebec area back then!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

if you type in your search bar "1891 census for stockdale" you should get some interesting results!.
I'm trying to trace my family history too and it can get you stuck at a dead end lots of times!. Good luck!. Kind regards from the North Coast of the Emerald Isle!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

That is so wonderful! How exciting! I bet that opened a whole new door!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

There are a lot of references:
Here are a few, but I need your email address to send you the jpeg file one of the documents!. I can send you the others that are listed for different dates from the same source, but again, I will need your email address!.
