The earliest documentation of the Huybrecht family occurs with the death of Adolphe Frederic Huybrecht on August 29, 1879 in Kortrijk, Belgium.  The civil registration of his death lists his birth in 1844 in Wevelghem, Belgium, making him 35 years old at the time of his death.  The registration also lists Louise Marie Destombes as his wife and Constantin Huybrecht and Amélie Vannieuwenhuyse as Adolphe's parents.

Aristide Adolphe Huybrecht was born to Adolf and Louise (Destombes) Huybrecht on September 14, 1868.  He was eleven years old when his father died in 1879.  Aristide and Clotilde Lievigne Buisine were married on August 31, 1895.  After immigrating to Canada in 1897, they had several children who became the ancestors of the families contained within these pages.  They appeared in the 1901 Canadian Census living in Sifton, Manitoba.  The family lived, according to the records, with Aristide's younger brother Eugene who had come to Canada before them in 1890.  The census records also show that Aristide could speak both French and English, as well as read and write, but that Clotilde could speak only French.  It doesn't state that she could read or write.  Around 1907 the family moved to the community of Wauchope, Saskatchewan which had been founded in 1901.  They lived with the Quennelle family until their house could be built.  It was in Wauchope where the rest of the Huybrecht children were born.  Aristide was an influential man in the town, serving as mayor for many years.  He also ran a farm implement store where he sold Massey, Harris and Cockshutt machinery.  He also had fuel pumps for a while.  The girls attended school at the nearby Saint Anne Convent.  Aristide died in Wauchope, Saskatchewan on January 5, 1937.

Clotilde Lievigne Buisine was born on February 11, 1870 in France.  She married Aristide Huybrecht on August 31, 1895 and had eleven children.  Clotilde had a physical problem that caused most of her babies to be born prematurely.  Of the eleven children that she bore, only four lived long enough to enter school, with most of the others dying at birth or shortly thereafter.  She, herself, died from Tuberculosis on August 20, 1920 in a hospital in St. Boniface (Winnipeg), Manitoba.[6]  Clotilde was buried in St. Regis Cemetery in Wauchope. [7]

Marguerite Buisine was born in France.  She married (unknown) Lemaire in France and had a son, George, and daughter, Marie Louise.  After her husband died, she and her children immigrated to Canada, arriving in Halifax, Nova Scotia in November, 1912 aboard the ship Uranium.  Marguerite later married her sister's widower, Aristide Huybrecht, and lived in Wauchope, Saskatchewan.  After Aristide's death in 1937, Marguerite remained in Wauchope for a few years, then moved to Winnipeg to live with her daughter.  Marguerite died at the Misericordia Hospital in Winnipeg on May 4, 1962.  After a funeral mass at St. Mary's Cathedral, she was buried in the St. Boniface Cemetery in Winnipeg.
