  • Notes 
    • A listing of the children of Jean Baprtiste Amiot and Genevieve Guillemot by Rene Jette (in his genealogical dictionary) does not include Jean Marie Amiot. However, Jette does list a son of the above couple named Joseph Amiot whose marriage is noted elsewhere in the Charbonneau and Legare "Repertoire de marriages, Bepteme, Sepulture..." . This record indicates that Joseph Amiot, son of above couple, had a brother named Jean Marie Amiot who attended the wedding. All of the children of Jean and Genevieve were born in Montreal from 1718-1729. No other marriages to other spouses are noted for this couple. Jette does not mention the Jean Marie Amiot that Tanguay says was born and died in infancy. French Canadian families have the odd custom of naming children after a deceased sibling and there is no listed baptism or birth for Jean- Marie despite being the brother of Joseph above.

      I have concluded that Jean-Marie Amiot above, not finding any other such person, is our ancestor with the ancestry as noted and that, as frequently happens, records get lost, the priest forgets to record, etc.

      Rene Jette himself used this same technique to prove the parentage of another individual whose birth record was lost. Rene Jette, until his death last year, was the foremost genealogist of French Canada. The above infromation was obtained frrom Montreal's Genealogical Library during a trip made by Patrick L. Tombeau in the 1990's.
