Historical Comittee

The Acadieville Historical Comittee researches and promotes interest in the history of Acadieville. The members of the committee are: Mathilda Richard, my brother Émile Babineau and his wife Doris (née Goguen), and myself, Yvon Babineau.  Mathilda and I work on genealogy and conduct research on the cemetery.  Émile and Doris collect photos and search old newspapers to find articles mentioning Acadieville and its inhabitants. 


Index of church records

Our most recent achievement is the creation of an index of the four church registers. The index makes it possible to find in one paragraph all the information regarding the baptism, marriage and death of a particular person.  A computer program designed for the parish facilitates searches and printing of certificates. This is a gift from the Historical Comittee to the community. Below you can see Mathilda and myself presenting the index to Father Bourgeois in June 2000.
