| In researching my great
great grandfather, I came across Etienne Pascal PEPIN and
thought I had found my man, but after more research, I discovered he is my great great grandfather's first cousin. Etienne-Pascal's dad is Louis Pepin; Louis is the son of Etienne PEPIN and wife Jeanne MACLURE.
Louis PEPIN's first wife was Marie-Catherine Germain. They married on 22 Oct 1792, in Yamaska county, Québec.
Louis's second wife was Agathe ROCHE dit LaLancette, daughter of Jacques Rauques and Agathe Giguere. They married 25 Oct 1802, in Yamaska county.
What is uncertain, at this point, is if the following 8 children are all Louis and Agathe's, or if some are Catherine's and some are Agathe's.

Louis and Catherine

I ran into Jackie LaVaque through
GenForum and she descends from Amede PEPIN. If you'd like to talk to Jackie,
drop her some email.
