I am trying to confirm if the below Richard line is correct.

Michel Richard-74  - Emigrated from France to Acadia around 1651 or 1652 - He had at least 12 children - possibly more

Martin Richard-80

Alexandre Richard-382

Pierre Richard-401 - born Acadia died Louisiana - IS THIS man the father of >>

(1755 deportation)

Pierre Richard-2917 - <<  THIS MAN?

Pierre Anaclet Richard-2506

Sylvain Richard-2713

Feregus Richard-3928

Eddie Richard-3927

Zachary Richard-3926 Cajun Singer

I want to connect Cajun Singer Zachary Richard to Michel Sansoucy Richard.

But I am missing the evidence that Pierre Richard-401 WAS THE FATHER of Pierre Richard-2917

Can anyone show me any proof?

Pierre Richard-2917 is mentioned as being one of the sons of Pierre Richard-401 on the FAG burial record for Richard-401

And currently Pierre Richard-401 does NOT have a son named Pierre attached to him on Wikitree. Would that listing on the FAG be sufficient proof?

I have also posted research notes on Pierre Richard-2917's profile.

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Richard-2917

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Richard-401

Hope this all makes sense.

Thanks.

Nice Work! That's to everyone!
my Genealogy record shows that Pierre [Pedro ] Richard - first marriage to Marguerite Dugas children- PIERRE ;DIT  Tinan ; married Marie Josephe Dugas  [Eddie Richard /father of Zachary Richard.

                      Martha
So Martha, are you saying that Pierre Richard-2917 should actually be called Pierre Richard Dit Tinan?

I wonder what the word or name Tinan means?
the nickname Tinan  can mean   Defender or  someone who seems to carry the weight of the world on their shoulders
