Ancestors of this couple with the surnames listed are found in the Repertoire of St. Jacques (Montcalm County). There may be more. I wasn't too thorough at this stage. In addition, there are many siblings. I do not know how much information you have, nor how much you want. The more specific is your request, the better I can help you.
Alternatively, since you have so many ancestors in this parish, you mihgt consider buying the Repertoire for yourself.
Let me know what you need. You family goes back to the early 1800s in St. Jacques.

Big Family in St. Jacques
I sympathize with your problem in being located a long way from Quebec and trying to find family there. I live in Texas. You have a lot of family in St. Jacques. I found 51 direct ancestors of yours going back to the beginning of the parish. Both the Piquettes and Gagnons are prominent families. I can send you the GEDCOMs on the internet, or I can mail you the print outs by US mail, or if you want the thrill of the chase, I can send you the addresses necessary to purchase the St. Jacques books. I should give the usual warning. I used only the published indexes. They could be wrong and I could have copied things wrong or missed some pieces of information. One way you can be very sure of these data is to get a copy of the St. Jacques parish register on microfilm at your local LDS (Mormon) Family History Center. They provide the best possible copies of the originals virtually free.
Let me know what you want to do.

I checked in the repertoires of St. Jacques, Montcalm. There are no Daniels in the births, deaths, or marriages. Is Daniel derived from some other name? Or is there a "dit" name for the family?
I can look up the address for the repertoire if you still want it.

Cliff, Where can I purchase the the repertoire of St. Jacques and what all does it contain. I am looking for my great grandmother(Alexina Daniel) who was born in St. Jacques, Quebec in 1879. Thanks in advance. Patti

Thanks for checking - Daniels has a dit of Lauzon which can have a dit of Florentin, Laurent, Loreau, Lozon, Vadeboncoeur. Alexina's death certificate list her parents as Alfred Daniels and LeBlanc. Alfred was born in 1846. I had originally thought Alexina's mother was Marcellina Chamberlain(from headstone in cemetary she is listed as Alfred's wife). Marcellina was born in 1847 and her parents are listed as Chas Blais and Jean Surprenant on her death certificate. Very confusing - they didn't make it very easy on us by changing their names so much - Thanks again for trying - Patti

Hi there, I'm looking for any info anyone might have on Leopold Froment and Rosie Francoeur, as far as I know they only had one child, my grandfather, Albert Froment. He was born Jan 6, 1921. Thats all i really have to go on, I'm not sure if my grandfather had any brothers or sisters. Thanks for any info anyone has.

Thanks for your help Cliff, I'm looking for decendents of Leopold. He was born in St Jaques on jan 24 1894 and died on feb 4 1982. Where he died at im not sure. All i know is his birthdate, and he had about 13 children 50 grand children, 55 great grand children, and maybe 3 great great grand children. My grandfather Albert born (Lucien-Albert Joseph Froment) was born in Morinville Alberta, and now lives in Surrey, British Columbia. I just want to find some decendents of Leopold, if i ever met him, i sure dont remember, i was only 3 at the time he died. Thanks to anyone else as well for any info they may have
