In 1752 he and his wife and six children were residents of Port La Joie [sic] on Isle St. Jean. On 1 Nov 1758 his widow with three children, disembarked at St. Malo from "Le Duc Guillaume."

BIRTH: Arsenault, H&G, p. 1496, born in 1686, but did not appear on 1686 census with family, although an unnamed male child did. Probably born after Francois and Genevieve and Germain, according to Arsenault preceded him in family. Was there a set of twins? There is a gap of years between 1692 and 1700. Could some of the children have been born then?
