There were 10 children in this family. Two were married before 1820: Marie Francis (b 1789) and Felicite Madeleine (b 1790). Marriage records for 5 other children are 1825-1832. These are probably the 5 children that are still in the household in 1820, and have been labeled above, to the best of this recorder's limited ability. There may be a younger person that is not a child of Francois and Marie in this record, or the record of 2 males younger than 20 may be in error.
