Find A Grave: Memorial #135010030 for Clemence “Daisy” Richard Savoie. It appears to apply to Richard-173 who married Jourdain Savoie, but there are discrepancies. The memorial does not include a photo of the grave. The nickname of Daisy has not been verified in any other source. The birth date matches a known record but is questionable as to which Clemence it is actually for. The death date on this memorial is definitely wrong for either of the Clemence profiles, and a source for it has not been found; it may actually be for Jourdain Savoie's second wife, Edessie (Daisy?) Daigle who may have died about 1892 and was born around 1813.

Find A Grave: Memorial #117401995 for Clemence Daisy Richard Savoie. This has similar data and issues as the previous memorial, except it locates the burial in a different cemetery.

One or both of these memorials are more likely for Edessie Daigle Savoie. Clemce Richard apparently died before Jourdain Savoie married Edessie in 1856. it is more likely that Edessie's nickname would have been Daisy, since her namesake daughter was known as Daisy or Desie.
