Notes - The following events support the conclusion Lazare, Alexis, and Jean are the sons of Emanuel Gracie and Geneviève Detcheverry dit Cheverie.
FamilySearch's Nova Scotia, Antigonish Catholic Diocese, 1823-1905 records the marriage of Jean Graisse, son of Emmanuel Graisse (deceased) and Genevieve Chevarie, and Marie McCaskill, daughter of Hugh McCaskill and Marguerite McCloud, on January 13 1834 in L'Ardoise.
FamilySearch's Nova Scotia, Antigonish Catholic Diocese, 1823-1905 records the burial of Genevieve Chavary age 88 died November 12 1850, wife of Emmanuel Grassie and Ben Taylor, in L'Ardoise. This confirms Geneviève Detcheverry dit Cheverie, wife of Emanuel Gracie, remained in L'Ardoise. Genevieve Chavary's implied year of birth is about 1762.
The 1811 Census of L'Ardoise records Widow Chavarie residing with 3 Males age 14 to 60, 2 Females age 14 to 60, 3 Males under 14, 1 Female under 14, no Males or Females over 60, 8 Unmarried Males and Females, and no Servants. Other than Widow Chavarie, all are unmarried.
The 1813 Militia Roll for L'Ardoise records the following 3 Gracie's:
1. Laran Graysie age 27 born Cape Breton Fisherman with 1 Woman, 3 Boys, and 1 Girl
2. Alexis Graysie age 21 born Prince Edward Island Mariner with no Women, Boys, or Girls
3. John Graysie age 18 born Prince Edward Island Fisherman with no Women, Boys, or Girls
The 1 Woman, 3 Boys, and 1 Girl residing with Laran Graysie match Widow Chavarie in the 1811 Census and her 3 Males under 14, and 1 Female under 14.
It is reasonable to conclude Genevieve Chavary age 88 who died November 12 1850 is Widow Chavarie in the 1811 Census of L'Ardoise as this Genevieve Chavary was married to Emmanuel Grassie.
It is reasonable to conclude Laran Graysie age 27, Alexis Graysie age 21, and John Graysie age 18 in the 1813 Militia Roll for L'Ardoise are the 3 Males age 14 to 60 with Widow Chavarie in the 1811 Census of L'Ardoise, and all are the sons of Emanuel Gracie and Geneviève Detcheverry dit Cheverie.
Based on her burial, Geneviève Detcheverry dit Cheverie's implied year of birth is about 1762. The Registre de L'Abbe Charles-François Bailly records the baptism of Genevieve age 10 years born 27 July, daughter of Antoine Cheveri and Marie Pinette, on July 26 1771 in Arichat.
Geneviève Detcheverry dit Cheverie's parents reside in Pointe de l'Est, Île St. Jean during the 1752 Census of Île St. Jean. Geneviève Detcheverry dit Cheverie's sons Alexis and Jean are born in Prince Edward Island according to the 1813 Militia Roll for L'Ardoise.
Based on her name, approximate year of birth, and connection to Prince Edward Island; it is reasonable to believe Genevieve, daughter of Antoine Cheveri and Marie Pinette, is the wife of Emanuel Gracie.
The 3 Males under 14 and 1 Female under 14 with Widow Chavarie in the 1811 Census are her children by Benjamin Taylor - Laurent, Joseph, Charles, and Lucy.
The other, unmarried Female age 14 to 60 with Widow Chavarie in the 1811 Census is Marie Gracie, daughter of Emanuel Gracie and Geneviève Detcheverry dit Cheverie. Marie Gracie married Joseph Pâté between the 1811 Census and the 1813 Militia Roll. See Notes for Marie Gracie, wife of Joseph Pâté, for further information.
