    Notes:

    Discrepancy: Marie-Josephte (Marie -Josephe) Girouard is said to have been the daughter of Germain Girouard and Marie Doucet by a number of authors. However, Stephen White on page 735 of his dictionary has her married to a Michel Gaudet s/0 Augustin Gaudet and Agnes Chiasson and has her death occurring in St Antoine sur Richelieu. Therefore I have not linked Marie Josephe Girouard into the family of Germain and Marie Doucet pending this discrepancy. A.Owen
