Two reliable family trees by genealogists and Sophie's burial record indicate that she was the daughter of Cécile Godin dit Bellefontaine. I couldn't find any information about Marguerite Piot. The Musée Acadien link isn't working and it won't be repaired - I checked with them. Would you have more information about Sophie's link to Marguerite Piot? Thanks!
