I have the parish records of St. Columban's, Cornwall and the marriage is there. It doesn't give any more info than what Rose has posted except that the witnesses were Michael Lalonde and Agnes Lalonde.
There is also a birth of George Albert Lavalee, son of Antoine Lavalee and Eliza Lalonde, born Dec.1878, baptised March 23, 1879. Sponsors Stephen Lalonde & wife.

Hi Margaret,

You might want to add a bit more information. I'm sure 99% of the people on this board don't know what a Metis Status card is. I had to Google it.

When was Antoine born and what year did he marry?

Rose
