G2G: suggest a family connection be made between Mousnier-7 and Mousnier-3

I have information to contribute to the profile of Jean (Mousnier) de la Montagne Sr. This is what I can add:  I have been collecting primary sources on Mousnier-3 for many years.  Two persons named "Mousmier de la Montagne" signed the 1621 Round-Robin Petition.  The first signer was Mousnier-3,  I have identified the 2nd signer as Mousnier-6, and woulkd like him to be added as a sibling(?) or near relative of Mousnier-3.  For my sources, please read my post The two signatures—“Mousnier de La Montagne”—from the 1621 Round-Robin Petition.  Also, Mousnier-3 is fraught with mis-information from legacy files... how do you clean that up?

These are the sources I am using:

Should I contact one of the pre-1700 projects or know about any style guidelines before proceeding? Thank you!

Interesting family if it is one. I would contact a pre-1700 project and very carefully go thru the sources before designating Mousnier-6 as a specific relative. He may not be related just the same/similar name. Could he also be the father? or an uncle?  I hope you are able to get more help or assistance than what I bring.
