Just additional info
PRDH has some 45,000 burials of the 1800-1850.
That's even better than 1825

PRDH PRDH stands for "Le Programme de recherche en démographie historique"
which translated into English
means ......."with the exception of certain burial records which go to
1825.****

The Repertory of Vital Events includes the some 690,000 baptismal, marriage,
and burial certificates registered in Catholic parishes prior to 1800. Are
also part of the data some 45 000 burials of the 1800-1850*** period
extracted to better death information of people born in the first half of
the XVIIIth century and more than 20,000 certificates of various other
types: census records, marriage contracts, confirmations, lists of
immigrants, and so on. The repertory reproduces, in a standardized form, the
basic information contained in these documents: type, place of registration
and date of the certificate; and the family name, first name, and
characteristics of the individuals cited. Sophisticated search tools make it
possible to find certificates by name of person (individuals or couples) and
certificate characteristics (type, date, or parish).

Good luck
Renée
