Thank you for that translation and the definition of "on condition".

Just so you know I have made a "cheat sheet" document with a copy of the original act and your translations. Now I will better understand what I am reading.

Happy New Year.

Joan

The Ancestry copy of the baptism record of Etienne Riou, son of Nicolas
Riou and Louise Asselin reads as follows:

B 6 Je soussigné Ambroise, prestre et curé de Kamouraska, et
desservant les paroisses de St Germain de Rimousky, Notre Dame des Anges de
Trois Pistoles, et St Jean Baptiste de l'Isle Verte, certifie avoir baptisé en
ce jour dans la susdite paroisse Jean Baptiste Riou, fils de Sieur Nicolas Riou
et Dame Louise Asselin ses père et mère de ce lieu, né le vingt six de mai
mil sept cent vingt neuf. Le parrain a été le Sieur Jean Baptiste Côté, Seigneur
de l'Isle Verte, la marraine Catherine Riou, sa soeur.

B 6 I, undersigned, Ambroise, priest and pastor of Kamouraska, and
serving the parishes of St-Germain de Rimousky, Notre Dame des Anges de Trois
Pistoles, and St Jean Baptiste de l'Isle Verte, certifies having baptized this
day in the aforementioned parish Jean Baptiste Riou, son of Sieur Nicolas Riou
and Dame Louise Asselin, his father and mother, of this place, born the twenty
sixth of May seventeen hundred twenty nine. The godfather was Sieur Jean
Baptiste Côté, Seigneur of l'Isle Verte, the godmother, Catherine Riou, his
sister.

There is no notation reading "sous condition", which indicates that a child
was baptized provisionally at home (the word in French is "ondoyé"), and at
a later date, the child was brought to church, where other rites of
baptism were performed and, in some cases, the baptism was repeated
conditionally (the condition -- just in case it wasn't done properly in the
first place).
