• Notes

  The record from the Prothonotary in Three Rivers reads, as taken from the record of the Roman Catholic Church, in St Leon, County of Maskinonge: “One Adolphus Dame, physician, abjured Protestantism and became a Catholic on the 5th of August 1832, and there on August 16, 1832, married Delphine Becker, minor daughter of Pierre Becker, miller, and Marie Louise Demarais of Yamachiche”. A family record states that he started life in commercial pursuits, studied medicine, passed the Board of Examiners, and practiced in Lower Canada. It states further that he was an officer in a Canadian regiment during the War of 1812.«s1 111:52»
