I am looking for more information on my great grandmother Georgiana Tougas ...wife of Eusebe Pratte. Together they purchased a farm in stPaul Chartierville Quebec in 1881. I have no other information on her except that she is indigenous and possibly the daughter of Clemence Tougas.
Any other info would be appreciated greatly.

My husband was from Chartierville. We have a town book that was published in 1995 for the town's 125th anniversay. Your family Pratte/Tougas is listed in the book. The photo in the book she is Native. Pratte was from Notre dame des Bois which is about 30 miles from Chartierville. They did purchase lots 10 & 11 in Range St Paul(which is a street). They had a daughter named Clemence Pratte who married Omer Roberge. They also had a son Cleophas Pratte who married Odiana Roberge. They had 3 children, Laurier, Laurette, & Leonida. They lived there until the death of Cleophas Pratte, the widow Odiana passed this land to her son Laurier. Laurier Pratte married Marie Lauzon they had 11 children. They lived on the land from 1934 to 1966 when Noel Pratte bought it from his father. Noel Pratte married Suzanne Beaudoin(d/o Paul Beaudoin&Helen Martineau). They are the current owners of the land purchased by Euzebe Pratte/Georgina Tougas. The land is currently called "Maision de la Ferme Ancetres". My husband and Suzanne Beaudoin are third cousins. Also Noel Pratte and my husband were friends as children. I hope this information helps you out. If you need any more information please do not hesitate contacting me. There are also some photos in this book. You can contact me at debi1@sympatico.ca
