Francois and Marie-Luce were most likely married before witnesses during a civil ceremony at Kennebecasis in the fall of 1769; as was the custom. Later, on May 6, 1770, Fr. Bailey blessed the marriage at the Ecoupahag mission. The mission records were kept at Caraquet, but that is not where the ceremony was performed. [1]
