The Chouinard side you are searching will probably produce no easy lookups. Josephine's parents, Francois (Francis) Xavier Chouinard and Virginie (she used Jane in many records after moving to Trenton) Lenoir-Rollard were married in Montreal 20 June 1842. Josephine was 11th of 13 known children. She was born 30 July 1862 in Trenton where her parents had moved in the early 1850's.
I am providing information on a collateral line and can give no information on the blood lines of Virginie (Jane) Lenoir-Rolland.
Francois (Francis) Xavier Chouinard was born 16 Sept 1821 in Montreal, the seventh of ten children born to Charles Chouinard and Marie Francois St. Denis.
There a problem tracing the blood lines of Charles Chouinard. In the record of his marriage on 10 Feb 1812 at Notre Dame in Montreal, he is records as Charles Chunart (although in all subsequent records he is called Chouinard) and his parents are given as Louis Chunart and Louisa Rondeau. If Charles' surname was really Chouinard, no records can be found substantiating a marriage between Louis Chouinard and Louisa Rondeau nor can any records be found of his birth/baptism.
Marie Francoise St. Dennis was the third of four known children born to Augustin (in some record called Eustase) St. Denis and Marie Ann Blais. They lived up the Ottawa river at Carillon. They were married at the church nearest to them on the river, the church at the Indian reservation at Oka, on 6 June 1791. The names of their parents were not recorded in the record of the marriage and of known people with the same names, none stands out as probable.
I am descended from a brother of Francois Xavier Chouinard and we also had tales of Indian blood in the family. I have never been able to find anything to support the tales.
