Translation of Celestin Henry Carre Birth Record

Victor Carre

Hi All,

I am new here and this is my first post. This record is interesting in that the entire year of 1860 for Pel-et-Der was missed during scanning. The Aube Archives was kind enough to scan and send me the document.

Could some one translate the record for me? Thanks in advance

Not word per word but you get the idea.

On the 27th of April 1860 appeared in front of us the maire of Pel et Der Aube Arsène Brochard midwife 42. She declared that on the 27th of April at 10am a boy was born in a house Grande Rue De Let and given the name of Celestin Henry Father was Francois Quirin Carré 45 years old, wine maker, the mother Virginie Arsène Debais 28. Witness: Jean Baptiste Rousselot 32 Farmer and Victor Charrier 21 domestic.

Note

They also had a daughter named Alexandrine born in 1864

Plenty of Carré an Debais in Pel et Aube in the 1881 census.

Thank you so much! I can usually pick out the important facts in these French records but Celestin is my great grandfather and I wanted the full translation for my records. Interestingly, the 1860 civil records for Pel-et-Der were missed during initial scanning and were missing from the online records. The Aube Archives were kind enough to scan the record and send it to me.

I have several ancestors in different small towns in that area. In general, that area has quite a number of Carres. I continue to try to sort them out.
