records of the parish of St. John the Evangelist New for April 17, 1888 report of the act of baptism following:
" B. 14 Joseph Alfred Philippe
On September 10 April, eighteen hundred eighty-eight we the undersigned priest have baptized Joseph Alfred born the same day, the legitimate son of Nicolas Philippe, farmer and Mary Anne Godbout, of this parish. Godfather by proxy Philip Joseph William, laborer; godmother by proxy, Emilie Lavigne, his wife, residing in the United States, represented by Mathias Philip Ray and Marcelline this parish where the father and were able to sign. Been read.
D. LeBel ptre priest. "
A good example of information on residence of people in the United States that provides an avenue of research, even if the mention of the U.S. state concerned is not mentioned. Contrary to what is said, no signature other than the priest appears at the bottom of the document.
Note that the child's name is composed of three names, a situation that makes it difficult to locating in the same database by using search engines.
