I have modified the other translation for the 1rst marriage.

I had never seen this expression "par paroles de présent" so I searched it in Google and found this :

Apparently this sort of marriage was also seen in France , but not recognized by the authorities . It was practised between catholics and huguenots .But they were forbidden by the Church, so no priest or curate could do them since  1600.  It seems that the expression was still used but that it did not mean anything (source Généanet). Also in the 2d marriage the priest is said to give the nuptial blessing.

I had to google translate (which didn't completely work). To clarify..... it means that they had been refused (possibly because one was Catholic and the other Protestant) by the church to be married. So they declared themselves married? Or lived together (common law) in a married way?

They'd been refused more than once and the church finally agreed. I'm guessing from "The bishop having exempted them for the 2 bans".

Very sad

No,I meant that in these years this sort of marriage could not have taken place ,it was forbidden ,but the priests still used the expression, void of meaning., . The priest himself could have been excommunicated .The marriage Lizot Pelletier was done "par paroles de présent" and according to the rules of the Holy Church

Being exempted for the 2 other banns was often done , in France and I guess in Quebec, when the engaged needed to get married quickly , for all sorts of reasons. Because the 3 banns took 3 weeks to be said by the curate , at the prones.
