| Notes |
- Alexis Daivnan dit Beauregard was a farmer at Chambly according to Fr. Christian Denissen, "Genealogy of the French Families of the Detroit River Region", Vol. 1, p. 74,
Marie-Louise Crete, born February 12, 1746, Quebec, the widow of Alexis Davignan dit Beuregard, remarried to Louis Bernard on 9 August 1767 at Chambly, Quebec Canada where this latter couple remained until at least 1771, but by 1773 were in the Assumption, Sandwich, Canada area across the Detroit River from Fort Detroit. No burial records were found for them at Monroe,MI, St. Antoine de la Riviere aux Raisin, in the book published by the Frenchtown Chapter of the French Canadian Heritage Society of Michigan: "Souls of Sr. Antoine's Cemetery of Frenchtown, Michigan and their Heroines" (2000). However, Basil Bernard dit Lajoie, the son of Louis Bernard dit Lajoie and Marie-Louise Crete, born in 1777 without a place listed for birth, was buried 4 November 1822 in St. Antoine de la Riviere Cemetery. Basil married Catherine Bissonet 11 February 1817 in Detroit. His half-brother Anthony Davignon dit Beauregard, b. 1762, place unknown,married 13 February 1792 in Detoroit. His son Antoine Davignon dit Beauregard was born 18 march 1793, in River Raisin, but baptised in Detroit. Considering her birth year of 1746, Maarie Louise Crete could have died in either Detroit or St. Antoine where her son is located as early as 1793 when his son Anthony, Jr. was born. While many Davignons and Bernards are buried at St. Antoine's no such records exist for Marie Louise Crete and her second husband Louis Bernard, making it likely they died before 1793 in Detroit. St.
Antoine de la Riviere aux Raisins was founded in 1788.
