***********************my response************

I was able to go to roots world web....  regarding Augustin  He was the son of George and  Marie  .Lafontaine (I have found this so far and hope it is correct..)  Not sure of anything regarding George (1837) his parents and if there are any other children  in the family   Not  sure when/where he or she died  etc  ..

I appreciate you trying to help me  I have subscription to Ancestry.com  but only the one for the US   and not the Canadian....We are having a Viger family reunion in Maine in July  and I would like to get all information possible..   to share with the family  Thanks again

well   rootsweb world connect is a free site  also family search.org

since Cocagne is just north of Moncton try the centre d'etude acadienne at the university of Moncton and there is a town in N.B called Acadieville and Acadie Siding  may be  this is where  your family was from ???...".in your question state  New Brunswick  ""the site is from  there I beleive .I am a volunteer at a local society's library but  we have some northern N.B.but not  your area , there is a Madawaska Maine site   did  you try it??/also a Gaspe site

but that is a bit  far north for  you  but give it a try anyway , look I am out here in southern Ontario trying to help , did  you check any family associations for Viger??

Google Viger  Genealogy you might be surprised  I  hope someone else  will come to  your rescue. I'll keep trying at my end ,good luck  with  your reunion

Hi I am back ...  try automated genenealogy canada census 1901 in the 1901 census I find your Euphemie age 47 with  3 children in St John New Brunswick   as boarders so your Angus  was most likely in th USA already so did  you try  citizenship applications  ???look if  you come on again I'll give you my email and we connect communicate a bit faster

Thank you so much  my email address is 

I went on Ancestry.com  but I don't have access to canadian census unless I pay for it

but it list

1901 Census of Canada 

Name Euphemie Viger  Birth 1853

Residence St Johns New Brunswick

***************************

Then  It lists

Quebec Vital and Churs Records (Drouin Collection 1921-1967)   Birth Marriage & Death

1912 Quebec  Euphemie Viger 

Another stumbling block

Birth

Il y a eu :

Augustin né vers 1857 a épousé Euphémie GOGUEN
le 3 nov 1878 à Cocagne NBrunswick

mais aussi : dans Lambton 1872, Ontario, page 59
Augustus Viger, né au Michigan, a 21 ans ,fils de George et Mary Lafontaine
marié le 04-05-1872 à Corunna ? Moore à Agnès Ann Laforge fille de John B
Laforge et Mary Brigth.Source Drouin

George est peut-être décédé au Michigan, car au mariage que tu mentionnes en
1878, il est décédé et Mary Lafontaine demeure en Ontario.source Drouin.

J'ai aussi trouvé sur Family Search:

Hattie Viger, 54 ans, fille de George Viger et Mary La Fornity
John Longtain, 60 ans
20-04-1914 Marine City, St. Clair, Michigan

par contre pas de trace du mariage des parents. Si j'étais à votre place je passerai beaucoup de temps dans les livres du Michigan.

je viens vous repondre pour Elaine qui   m'a fait suivre votre reponsealors je  vous remeircie infiniement de tout ce que vous  contibuez  ,oui je suis d'accord Michigan  est la direction a prendre  et on procedera sur cette recherche Merci encore Renee

pour faire suite a la premiere question ,    elle a trouve un bapteme de George Viger ne 1835 a Ste Marie de Beauce il serait le fils de Antoine Viger et sa 2ieme epouse Genevieve  Giroux   est ce possible que c'est le George Viger en question ?

beau temps oblige on en profite !!!

Non ce Georges Viger né en 1835 est décédé noyé le 06-05-1856 à St-Vital, on dit bien fils de Antoine et défunte  Geneviève Giroux

source Drouin, St-Vital Lambton 1856 page 13

un gros merci  alors ce George ne en 1835 n.est pas le bon bonne chose de pouvoir l'eliminer  si vite  merci encore une fois
