Fait & passé à Rimouski étude de Mtre Gauvreau le cinq de Mars avant midi L'an mil huit cent vingt neuf requis de signer les comparans ont déclaré ne le savoir. Lecture faite un renvoi bon un mot biffé nul.http://jacantdionne.net/archives1.html

There are linguistic links between Haitian French and Louisiana French ( see http://www.bestofneworleans.com/gambit/creole-connection/Con... ) and Houston is not that far from New Orleans (even more so, so to speak, post-Katrina).

Exactly the same sentence even, without the renvoi bon. It would make sense if it were not for the renvoi bon addressed by ccinnyc.

saw the same ref. not sure it's not more of an explanation than a translation and not sure it applies to a Haitian birth certificate.

Well the full sentence was: apres lecture faite par nous du present acte, l'avons signe avec le comparant et les temoins pour ne le savoir un renvoi bon.

The reason I ask is that there has been a discussion on WordReferences.com about this too. Exactly the same sentence, and it would just mean that whoever did not sign was not able to (illiterate). Could you post the whole sentence?
