Pierre aka Peter Allore (aka Alore, Alloir, Allard) was born about 1825/26 in Michigan. His census records indicate 1825, and the Detroit Society for Genealogical Research records show he was born 1823, and the son of Peter Alard and Monica Drouillard. [1]
Peter married Geneviève "Jane" Sancrainte (Romain dit Sanscrainte) on July 8, 1844.[2] They had six children before his wife, Geneviève's death in approximately 1861. According to their daughter Mary Josephine (Allore) Courier's biography, her mother died while she was still an infant, and she was raised by other family members until she married.
Peter appears to have remarried Therase (unknown) Alore, who is listed as his wife on the 1871 Canadian Census. There are several other children in the household, indicating a second marriage for both. His date of death and residence after 1871 is currently unknown. Last known to be living in Malden, Essex, Ontario, Canada.

Peter Alard :"Family Tree," database, FamilySearch (http://familysearch.org : modified 30 June 2022, 01:37), entry for Peter Eli Alard (PID https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/4:1:KP46-YNJ ); contributed by various users.
Most records indicate his preferred name was "Eli". It is possible that "Eli" Alard b. 1836 is the other Eli listed on the 1850 census as 14 years of age. Eli Alard's parents died in 1843, and perhaps he was a relative of Peter's. Peter and Geneviève's son Eli, was born in 1848, as indicated on the 1850 census as well. Eli Alard (Allore) was listed in the 1860 Census as living in Ash, Monroe, Michigan with wife Elizabeth and son Charles.[3] Further research necessary.
