Donalda was the daughter of Elie Quenneville and Dorilda Dupuis. She married Raymond Baillargeon on June 3, 1912 St.Joachim, Ontario. They were the parents of seven children:
1. Antoninette-born 1914 Died 1920 Annunciation Cemetery.
2. Blanche-born May 26, 1915 in Stoney Point, Ontario. She married Ulric Morand Born 1904 Died March 31, 1982. She died in 2012 in Troy, Michigan
3. George-born November 24, 1918 Died January 17, 1976, buried in Annunciation Cemetery. Married October 20, 1948 in St. Francis Church Tilbury, Ontario to Cecile Brosseau Born 1929.
4 Henri-born February 2, 1921 in Stoney Point, Ontario. Married February 11, 1956 in Tilbury, Ontario to Cecile Laliberte.
5. Joseph-born November 29, 1922 Stoney Point, Ontario. Married October 18, 1947 in Stoney Point, to Isabelle Rondot Born-September 6, 1922 Died February 8, 2011 buried in Annunciation Cemetery.
6. Marcel-born April 1, 1925 Stoney Point, Ontario.
7. Omer-born 1916 Died February 12, 1920 Buried in Annunciation Cemetery.
Cause of death Suicide by hanging. The family reported that she initially suffered from severe depression and was never able to cope with the deaths of two her children and later with postpartum depression after the birth of her seventh child. Surviving children were sent to live with other relatives until Raymond's remarriage in order to allow him to continue with his farming business. When children returned home years later, they always feared "The Closet." The Catholic Church "punished" Donalda for committing the moral sin of taking her own life by allowing her to be buried in a Catholic cemetery only against the fence line.
