records of the parish of Saint-Jean Deschaillons for November 5, 1763 report the act of burial following :
" September 5 beausoleil
Lan thousand seven hundred sixty-three on Nov. 5 by us ptre pastor of St. John was buried in the cemetery of this parish a male child aged about two months called beausoleil delivered to Nicolas churchwarden jersey out of a boat pass. In faith whereof, jai signed
J Gingras ptr .
It will be difficult to correctly identify this child out that the priest did not mention that he had been buried in mass graves. On another level, a reference to a boat reminds us a means of transportation used at that time.
