Québec Généalogie - What is a 'dit/dite' name? When the first settlers came to Québec from France it was a custom to add a 'dit' nickname to the surname. The English translation of 'dit' is 'said'. The Colonists of Nouvelle France added 'dit' names as distinguishers. A settler might have wanted to differentiate their family from their siblings by taking a 'dit' name that described the locale to which they had relocated. The acquiring of a 'dit' name might also be the result of a casual adoption, whereby the person wanted to honor the family who had raised them. Another reason was also to distinguish themselves by taking as a 'dit' name the town or village in France from which they originated. This custom ended around 1900 when people began using only one name, either the 'dit' nickname or their original surname.

Another possiblity - baptism at Sainte-Marie-Madeleine, Cap-de-la-Madeleine 16 Nov 1707, child of Nicolas Le Blanc dit La Brie and Genevieve Petit -- although this child is unnamed, it looks like it might have been a boy.

Unable to verify her baptism, but death record indicates her approximate age. NEED to find her marriage record to verify her parents.
