Hi again,

What I thought was "Charlotte" is most likely Chambly in Quebec. This is the birth record I found & is the same family as the tree I told you about earlier.

The LDS site has a few Massachusetts databases. I found a marriage for Rosanna De Marias to Joseph Myers. There is an image as well. Rosanna was born in Huntington, MA and her parents are listed as Anthony and Lucy ?. Here's a link to the entry:
https://www.familysearch.org/search/recordDetails/show?uri=https://api.familysearch.org/records/pal:/MM9.1.r/M6JM-GLQ/p8

You should be able to find a lot of other information about the family at the LDS site:

In the Massachusetts Births database at  https://www.familysearch.org/ there is a record for a Maria Rosanna Desmarais b. 03 Jan 1874 in Ware to parents Antoine (o in index but c/b the writing) and Lucie. Image is available and gives a bit more info.

Lisa, What do you mean my public tree is on a major genealogical site? R. Joshua Myers? The Myers Family? Antoine Desmarais? What site? It's no secret, but who could have posted it? I don't understand.  Josh

Jacquie, You found the marriage of Joseph Myers and Roseanna Desmarais, for sure, but the rest of your finds don't look right. It looks as if there's an Aintoine Desmarais clan in Massachusetts and another in Rhode Island, and my family is the Massachusetts family. Would everybody agree with that? Lisa, His mother could be Chambly. Why? Her Antoine is nearly the right age. RI Antoine is a younger man, isn't he? If I get mixed up, somebody point it out to me. I have no name for her. Chambly will be as good as any other name for the time being, anyway.  Josh

Sorry about that - I was distracted when I was posting. I've removed the Rhode Island information to make sure there's no confusion. Back to the drawing board.
