  Father	Jean VEINOT,   b. Abt 1762, North West, Lunenburg, NS d. 8 May 1814, Lunenburg County, NS (Age ~ 52 years)
  Mother	Catherine Margaret JOLLIMORE,   b. 1760, Lunenburg County, NS d. 11 Jan 1852, Lunenburg County, NS (Age 92 years)
  Marriage	26 Jul 1785	Lunenburg County, NS   [1]
  Notes	BeCAUSe her mother is named Judith, some have placed Catherine Elizabeth VEINOT 1790 as d/o Peter James and Anna Judith (DAUPHINEE) VEINOT. However, it can be shown that the wife of John VEINOT appears as both Catherine Margaret and Judith Margaret in multiple places. And from John VEINOT's LWT, it is clear that both Catherine Elizabeth 1788 and Catherine Elizabeth 1790 are their daughters. So the question then becomes--which Catherine Elizabeth married which husband? In his LWT, John lists both his sons and his daughters in order of birth. Moreover, the two successive Catherine Elizabeth's are listed as "Catherine Elizabeth" and simply "Catherine", and it seems highly unlikely that both would have been addressed, at least within the family, by the same name. Now at marriage, the wife of Henry SHUBLEY is listed as "Elizabeth", while the wife of John Peter LOWE is listed as "Catherine". Also, as Brenda Maruca points out, John VEINOT's LWT leaves 5 pounds to each daughter but only Catherine, Mary Elizabeth, and Ann Margaret are to receive a cow, calf, spinning wheel, and feather bed, which would indicate that Catherine Elizabeth is already married. Therefore, in this genealogy, Catherine Elizabeth 1788 is assigned to Henry SHUBLEY and Catherine Elizabeth 1790 to John Peter LOWE.

• Notes

  There are a number of births/baptisms recorded in the SJAL register that appear to list the parents as Charles and Lucy VEINOT. But there does not appear to have been a Charles VEINOT of that period, and the only known VEINOT of that era who married a Lucy was John Christopher VEINOT, who m. Lucy SARTY. So it would seem that the "Charles" is a poorly written "Chris".
