    This document is dated Dec 5 1817 and informs of the death of Mr. Nicholas Thibodeau. The document goes on to nominate his brother as "subrogé lution" (substitute decision maker) for his children. It is assumed that the document was not written the same day that Nicholas died, although it is possible that it was.
