For source #2, it is important to point out that the parish priest made the mistake of naming Marie "Marie Poirier" instead of Poithier. On the facing page of the register, he rewrote the whole 1721 marriage record renaming Marie "Marie Poitier" and Jean "Jean Poitier". Jean also signed the register in a very dignified signature.
