I found the record on family search since I don't have a subscription to ancestry.com and couldn't access it from your link. I see that it's been 2 days since he died (the record is dated on the 18th, so I believe he died on the 16th) and the 18th is the date of burial. I also believe it says he died at the age of three weeks.

You're very welcome. I had no luck finding a baptism record.

Thanks, mmogno. The record you found is the right time frame and also the correct parents. The problem I have though is that baptism record is for a female and the death/burial record is for a male. The baptism record uses ne'e instead of ne' (sorry I don't have the French acute accent on my keyboard). The death/burial record uses the word fils (son) instead of fille (daughter).
