Definitely Norbonne/Nerbonne - it appears frequently in the register, but I still can't tell whether it's an o or an e.

The 1921 Canada census indicated that Augustin and Delia had at least 5 children - Irene 17, Blanche 15, Ivone 13, Joseph 8 and Lucienne 7. I found Ivone and an additional daughter quite easily with Ancestry's index search, Blanche and Irene with a bit more difficulty, and for Joseph I ended up searching the images page by page.
 
Irene (Marie Delia Irene b30 May 1904)
Blanche (Marie Blanche b2 May 1906),
Ivone (Marie Yvonne Mathilde b28 Mar 1908)
          (Marie Lucienne Desneiges Saumur b9 jun 1910)
Joseph (Joseph Stanislas Lucien b10 Sep 1912)
Lucienne (Marie Delia Lucienne b13 Jul 1914)
Most roots researched back to the early/mid 1800s. Years noted as 'pre' refer to my direct ancestors, although I'm interested in any relatives:
Mitchelstown, Co.Cork: CORBETT (pre1935), SWEENEY  (pre1935), CUSACK? (pre1894), KEYS? (pre1894)
Mallow, Co.Cork: BROWNE (1895-1935)
Caher, Co.Tipp: BROWNE (pre1895), PURTELL(pre1895)
Cashel, Co.Tipp: FANNING (pre1886)
Llanelly, Carms: GRIFFITHS (pre1934), REYNOLDS (pre1901), WILLIAMS (pre1934)
Ton Pentre, Glams: LEWIS (pre1901)

Hi,

The Nerbonne's appear on numerous Canada Voters Lists, this one from 1957.

Thank you. So it's definitely an e - Nerbonne.

The one remaining mystery word is on the very last line, the priest's signature

F. Ph. Beauchamp C??? Curé

It looks like 'chan', or possibly 'char' to me...

chan. = chanoine = canon in English

F. Ph. Beauchamp = Félix-Philibert-Bernard Beauchamp

If you read through the info in the link above, you'll see a few Nerbonnes mentioned.

Clarkson, Tolladay, Prevost, Killick, Hicks

kob3203 I was beginning to wonder if you were off on holiday or having internet problems… but can see you’ve been online. Is your post now resolved? Do you agree that chan = chanoine = canon?

Sorry for not replying - I haven't been on RootsChat for several days (I have the "keep me logged in" option set which is why it appears that I'm online).

Yes, chanoine curé would make sense. And Nerbonne's the surname. Thanks, everything's been answered.
