Joseph Xavier Beauvais dit St-Joseph Beauvais appears to be a variation of Bouvet, which is his father's name. Born and baptized on 14 May 1730 in St-Cyr-et-Ste-Juliette parish, Champagnole, arch. Besançon, Franche-Comté (ar. Lons-le-Saunier, Jura)[1] He gets called François Xavier on various records, in his absence, appears to be a clerical error as the combination François Xavier is much more frequent than Joseph Xavier. In later life and on his and his wife's funerals he is listed as François only.

He arrived in the colony as a soldier in the Languedoc regiment, de Vaudray company, with Montcalm, in 1755.[2]
