Kehoe/Keho family in Rawdon, Que
I recently discovered that a branch of my family tree has significant roots in Rawdon. My gggrandfather, James Kehoe (b. 1845) had two brothers Frank (b. 1848) and Henry, all born and raised in Rawdon. James and Frank moved to Saginaw, Michigan in 1870, while Henry stayed behind. I have no information on Henry, but have lots on James and Frank (which I'm very willing to share).
Any information or suggestions of resources would be most appreciated!
Thanks,
Sarah

Re: Kehoe/Keho family in Rawdon, Que
From the information you supplied and the time frame, there is but one possibility in Rawdon: the family of Andrew KEOUGH/ KEHOE and Susan BYRN/ BYRNS/ BYRNE/ OBYRN. It would be necessary to browse thru the parish records to establish the correct spelling of these family names, based on the signatures.
The family was actually living in Rawdon, but some of the baptisms were found in a neighbouring parish, St-Jacques-L'Achigan (Montcalm County). There might other records besides what I found.
