  Father	Jean Baptiste Nadeau,   b. 27 Jul 1768, Kamouraska (St. Louis), Quebec, Canada ,   d. 13 Feb 1812, St. Basile, Madawaska, New Brunswick, Canada  (Age 43 years)
  Mother	Marie Anne Albert,   b. 5 May 1776, Kamouraska (St. Louis), Quebec, Canada ,   d. 9 Apr 1858, Frenchville, Aroostook, Maine, United States  (Age 81 years)
  Married	Abt 1793	Kamouraska, Quebec, Canada
  	A marriage date possibility but cannot be proven: Marriage date of 7 August 1788 was noted in the St. John Valley Times of Madawaska, Maine on 10 June 1998. I think that they would have married in or near Kamouraska. But this marriage is not recorded in the parish records for Kamouraska. Also not found in PRDH with any other date. It's unlikely that Marie Anne married at age 12 years. There is also too large of a time gap between the 1788 date and the birth of their first child in 1794.
