Good Evening Renée,

The parish of Sainte-Elisabeth, initially in the county of Berthier,
became part of the county of Joliette when that second county was carved
out of the territory of the county of Berthier.

On a current map, you'd need to look for Sainte-Elisabeth, in the county
of Joliette, as this is now what it is. This quaint little agricultural
town is about half way between Berthierville and Saint-Felix-de-Valois.

At the time these marriages took place, though, 1823, and 1827 (and
remember these are two different Basile and two different marriages),
the parish of Sainte-Elisabeth was still in the county of Berthier.

In the Drouin collection, Sainte-Elisabeth is listed as, plainly enough,
Sainte-Elisabeth to avoid the debate.

The repertory is called "Mariages de la Paroisse Ste-Elisabeth, comté de
Berthier, 1802-1982"

You will find the marriage of Basile Charron and Catherine Henault in
1823, on page 15:23;

Basile Charon and Rose Henault's marriage is in 1827, on page 25:51. The
name of the bride is indicated as Rose Canada (just to see if y'all
paying attention...)

Cheers,

Mona
