When posting parish records, it is helpful to indicate in your request which parish it is from. I was able to find the marriage of the parents of Marie Malvina Marchand, which gave me a locality. (The parish record text just says - of this parish).
Here are the particulars (my French is not perfect, but here's the gist):
St. Maurice, Champlain County; St. Maurice registry
On the 18th day of November 1864, we baptized Marie Malvina, born yesterday, of the legitimate marriage of Onesime Marchand, farmer, and Hermine Descoteaux of this parish. Godfather is Philippe Sigmon, godmother is Malvina Hamelin, who signed with me. The father presented his declaration that he did not know how to sign.
- Philippe Sigman
- Malvina Hamelin
- Jean Baptiste Marcotte, minister
Here is an indexed listing from Drouin Institute of the parent's marriage, at the beginning of 1864, which gives further information about the family, in case that is helpful:

Oops, from the Trois Rivieres Registry.
