Possibly incorrect lineage
[edit]I'm really confused in regards to the lineage indicated, as the parents Joseph and Jeanne had a son in 1784 but he was named Joseph Medard, not Jacques. As it is customary in Quebec, child were baptized very early on usually within days of being born, and twins would typically be baptized on the same day. So if we assume that the Joseph (mentioned in The Mountain Men and the Fur Trade of the Far West, Vol. VI.) had indeed a brother named Jacques, this particular Jacques would not be born in 1784 as it is the birth date of Joseph and there are no records of a twin. It gets further confusing as Joachim Fromhold indicates it is a son of a Francois that would have been named Jacques, but the only son named Francois from the marriage of Joseph and Jeanne, was born in 1804. It is doubtful that this fits the timeline in the historical records.
Therefore, based on these observations, the parents and/or birth date of Jacques may be erroneous. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ekscrypto (talk • contribs) 14:40, 22 February 2018 (UTC)
- Yes, the "Early life" section is poorly written and poorly documented. I've added {{cn}} and {{when}} in a few places and removed the following reference, which does not mention La Ramee:
