   Note Posting on 29 Sep 2010, in response to a query from Kennedy King. - I have the following information that I verified with Stephen White in case I was mistaken.. here is what he said: "Actually, there is proof that Charles Roy or Leroy could not have been the child of Jean Roy and Marie Aubois. This proof is in La Roque's census, which specifies that Marie-Charlotte Chauvet's husband was a Frenchman who had been born in Paris, France. Jean Roy and Marie Aubois meanwhile lived at Port-Royal in Acadia. Theirs was consequently an entirely different family, in which, coincidentally, there happened to be a son named Charles."
