    Please note that I have only been able to find one burial record for a Marie Elisabeth Pellerin (found in the Drouin Collection). She is buried in St-Mathieu, Bellechasse, Québec. Family trees on Ancestry.com and FamilySearch.com have her dying anywhere from Port Royal, Acadie to Isle St Jean (PEI), yet most have this same burial record from the St Michel parish listed as their source. Others list Ancestry.com Family Trees as their source for burial.
