On your biography on Jean Baptiste you mention that he was born in Verchères Québec...I did not find any birth on that name in Verchères on that year 1738 but on the top of your page you mention that he was born in Detroit Michigan USA witch to me sounds more likely,, would or could you find and post a copy of his birth certificate please. Also you mention that he died on 1813 in Verchères Québec... this is wrong, Jean Baptiste died on june 4 1824 in Ste-Genevieve Bertierville Québec and was buried on June 07.

Also he had 13 children  : Jean-Baptiste b. April 18 1764, Elisabeth b. april 4 1765, Charlotte b. dec 02 1766, Jean Philippe b. june 24 1768, Joseph Feb 06 1770, Paul Blaise feb 01 1771, Jean Marie b. march 30 1772, Elisabeth b. may 02 1773, Louis Gonzague b. may 10 1774, Marie Elisabeth b. sept 09 1775, Marguerite Justine b. sept 05 1776 Basile avril 02 1778, Joachim Norbert b. june 21 1779. Also Élisabeth daughter of Jean Baptiste and Louise Mézière that you mentionned well for your info they had 10 children but only 2 survived. If you need any info please contact me at [email address removed] since I am working on that family for a friend named deBondy
