Hi, the document you attached is not a marriage, but rather a burial of Alberia.

I can give you a limited translation with my old high school French - which will be the main parts.

1898 - Ste. Brigitte, Des Saults Co. Nicolet

November 14, 1898 burial in the cemetery of this Parish, the body of Alberia Blanchette, spouse of Emilia Jutras of this Parish, died accidently on the 11th current. month in the Parish of Drummondville. Present at the burial Damien Blanchette, brother, Norbert Blanchette, cousin.

I found the marriage also

St. Zephirin, De-Courval Co. Yamaska

October 18, 1881, after publication of banns, marriage of Alberia Blanchette, cultivator, living in Ste. Brigette Des Saults, major son of Joseph Blanchette, cultivator and of Marie Ouellet of St. Brigette Des Saults on the first part and Maria Emilia Justras, living in this Parish, minor daughter of Joseph Jutras, cultivator and of Marie Dionne of this Parish on the other part. In the presence of Ludger Lahair, cultivator, friend of the spouse and of Lacoste Blanchette, cultivator of St. Brigette Des Saults.

The index entry for the above marriage shows her as Marie Emilia Jutras and in bracket Marie Exilia

Emilia remarried after the death of Alberia

1901 Ste-Brigette-Des-Saults
Sept. 16, 1901, after banns, marriage of Louis Girard, widower of Anna Lapierre of this Parish on the first part and Emilia Jutras, widow of Albiria Blanchet, also of this Parish on the other part. In the presence of Joseph Blanchet, father in law of the spouse and Louis Boichair.

** that is the first time I have seen a father in law listed as a witness, so I am guessing somewhat at that relationship - it says beau pere of the spouse - pere is father so I am assuming it means father in law

the 1891 census has a family that looks possible - next door are what look likely for Alberia's parents - spellings of names off but thats not unusual

1891 STE. BRIGITTE DES SAULTS
BLANCHETTE

Alberique, age 31, cultivator
Azelia, age 25, wife
Adolphe, age 8, son
Alberique, age 7, son
Henri, age 5, son
Alphride, age 4, daughter
Esterre, age 1, son

next door
BLANCHETTE
Joseph, age 64, cultivator
Marie, age 67, wife

all are shown born Quebec

1901 SAINTE-BRIGITTE-DES-SAULTS
BLANCHETTE
Brilia (as indexed), age 35, head, farmer, born 1853 - widowed
Adolphe, age 18, son born Aug. 28, 1882
Alberie, age 17, son, cultivator, born Dec. 24, 1883
Henri, age 15, son, born May 8, 1885
Alpahide, age 14, daughter born Jan. 2, 1887
Hector, age 11, son born March 9, 1890
Anita, age 7, daughter born May 17, 1893
Floranne, age 4, daughter born Oct. 31, 1897

Brilia looks like Omilia in image and her birth month hard to read, day is 12th
next door
BLANCHETTE
Joseph, age 74, born Jan. 15, 1827
Marie, age 77, born July 28, 1823
all born Quebec

so with this Omelia being a widow it does seem to fit but will check on birth/bapt. of the children to see how their mother's name is shown

all children BLANCHETTE/BLANCHET

Joseph Adolphe Alexandre was baptized 1882 to Alberia and Emilia (her name shown as Marie Exelia Jutras
Joseph Alberia baptized 1883 - again mother's name looks like Exelia but father is Alberia and mother surname Jutras
Joseph Henri Lorenzo baptized 1885 - mother could be Emilia or Exilia
Marie Louise Alpide baptized 1887 - mother Zelia Jutras
Hector baptized 1890 - mother Exilia Jutras
Marie Eneda Corine baptized 1893, mother Exilia Jutras
Marie Florianne Graziella, baptized 1896 - mother Exilia Getras

I also found a baptism for 1902
Marie Anna Lucienne Girard - parents Louis Girard and Exilia Jutras
sponsors Adolphe Blanchet, son of deceased Albirie Balnchet, half brother of the infant and Hortense Girard, daughter of Louis Girard and half sister of the infant.

1905 - Marie Anne Juliette Gerard - parents Louis Gerard and Exilia Jutras

1907 - Marie Louise Berthe Gerard - parents Louis Gerard and Exilia/Emilia Jutras - sponsors Henri Blanchet and Alpaide Blanchet, children of the deceased Alberia Blanchet and Exilia/Emilia Jutras, half brother and sister of the infant

so the families in the census above seem to be the right ones.

I found another marriage for Exilia Jutras
1919- St-Zephirin-de-Courval
December 13, 1919 after banns, marriage of Benjamin Beliveau, widower of Venereide Lanfrou (not sure of this) and Exilia Jutras widow of Louis Girard. Int he presence of Gregoire Hebert and of Zephrin Jutras

found that Louis died in 1918 Ste-Brigitte-des-Saults aged 67 years, spouse of Exilia Jutras. Present at his burial - Joseph Girard, Luc Girard, brothers, Louis Boisefair, Hectot Lupien, Hormidas Jutras, Alberie and Adolphe Balnchet.

So Emilia is listed more often in records as Exilia
