ROSALIE ROIREAU diT LALIBERTE 1783-1864

Rosalie Roireau dit Laliberté was born to parents Joseph Laliberté and Marguerite Lemay. Her baptismal record names her Marie Archange Roirou dit Laliberté. She was a from a large family of eleven children, eight girls and three boys. Her eldest sister married a cousin of Joseph and her sister Archange married Louis Auger an older brother of Joseph.

She and Joseph married in 1807 on the â€‹13th January in Lotbinière. Joseph was twenty-eight and she was twenty-four at the time. Their marriage produced thirteen children of which all but two reached adulthood. Both Antoine and Pétronille died as infants.
I do not know if Joseph and Rosalie lived in a house such as this one in the picture, but many did. It would not have been a large space to raise so many children.

Rosalie outlived Joseph by thirty-four years. She died in Sainte Émmélie, Lotbinière June 5th 1864 at eighty-one years of age.
