Anne (Bourdon) le Roux has French origins.

Blois, Loir-et-Cher, Centre, France [1]
Cour-Cheverny, Loir-et-Cher, Centre, France [1]

Pommegorge, the family farm since 1530, was sold on 29 Mei 1687. [1]
Tree of Gabriel le Roux and nephew Jean le Roux [1]:
Jehan le Roux (1565-1602) married Marie Dutens (1570-1594) and had two sons: (a) Estienne le Roux (1588-?) + (b) Jean le Roux (1593-1668) [1]
(a) Estienne le Roux (1588) had son Isaac le Roux (1615-1687) who married Jeanne Bourdon (1634-15 April 1372). Isaac and Jeanne had a son Jean le Roux (1666-1711) - Born on 16 November 1666 on farm Pommegorge in Mer, Loir-et-Cher, Centre, France (It has been mentioned that he was christened on the same day as Gabriel). [1]
(b) Jean le Roux (1593) and Jeanne Chauffourt (1600-1672) had a son Pierre le Roux (1632-1682) who married Anne Bourdon (1639-1672).

According to me, it is not. Her parents were Jean BOURDON and Claudine LENOIR.

Gabriel BOURDON and Esther AVICE are the parents of Jacques BOURDON, Gabriel BOURDON and Louis BOURDON.

Is this profile and those connected to it under review for accuracy? I am asking as I believe Anne and Pierre are my 8th great grandparents, and also because I have seen conflicting information regarding parents and children when compared to the information contained herein: https://sites.google.com/site/lerouxfamiliebond/stamouers/the-le-roux-family-from-mer

As an example: Jean Bourdon and Claudine Lenoir are documented as Anne Bourdon's parents in the included link.

We know that Anne BOURDON had two brothers, Jehan and Daniel BOURDON. Her marriage contract mentions her parents as Jehan BOURDON and Claudine LENOIR.

In 1669, Daniel BOURDON and Jean BOURDON are witnesses at the burial of Anne LE NOIR and they are listed as her nephews (same thing for Jacques BOURDON, Pierre ROGER and Besnard FOUCHER).

Marie PLET (signature PELET) is a first cousin of Pierre LEROUX junior.

Her mother is either a sister of Pierre LEROUX senior, or a sister of Anne BOURDON. There is an Alexandre PELET married to a Claude BOURDON around 1659. I think that they are the parents of Marie PELET.
