Denys-202 and Darois-9 appear to represent the same person because: Same date of birth and similar parents names. Her surname is written "Denis" in the baptism record but there are no additional sources for Jerome Denis. Her father was probably Jerome Darois (Darois-2)
Source is not clear concerning mother Marie ? Marie Giraud was only 1 at the time of her birth and born in France.
