Parents of Peter Provonsha (1835-1902)
Kathie,
To comply with your interest in the Provonsha family tree, here is some info on the parents of Peter PROVONSHA who married Ellen Sophia LANE on December 25, 1862 in US. Peter, born and baptized on July 26, 1835 in the catholic church of Becancour, Nicolet County, Quebec. Canada. was the son of Francois Provencher (1790-1864) and Angelique Bourbeau dit Carignan (1790-1864). He was the youngest of a family of eleven
children (6 girls and 5 boys). I do not know the exact time of his emigration to US. Peter was 27 years old when he married in US.
