Born:

Terrebonne, Quebec

Son of Jean-Baptiste Bernard of Inwood, Manitoba.

His first name is inscribed as “Anthime” in the Book of Remembrance but he signed “Anthine”, and he is inscribed as such in the 1911 Manitoba census. This first name is not common, but it does exist.

He stated being born in Terrebonne Quebec, but there is no trace of him in the Registres de l’état civil of Québec. The 1911 Manitoba census show that he would rather have been born in France and would have immigrated with his parents in 1905.

Commemorated on Page 367 of the First World War Book of Remembrance. Request a copy of this page. Download high resolution copy of this page.
