    3. Karen, I agree with all that you mentioned in your latest post concerning Paul Guédry and Anne Mius being the probable parents of Claude Guédry, huband of Anne LeJeune and Anne Moise. In that post you mentioned in item 2 that Marie-Josephe Guédry (age 28 in 1752) was the daughter of Paul Guédry and Anne Mius.  This Marie-Josephe Guédry was the daughter of Augustin Guédry and Jeanne Hébert rather than Paul Guédry and Anne Mius.  She actually is one of the twins born in 1723 to Augustin Guédry and Jeanne Hébert and mentioned in item 4 of your note.  The evidence for this is: Regarding Marie-Josephe Guédry, wife of Charles Boutin - this Marie-Josephe Guédry was the daughter of Augustin Guédry and Jeanne Hébert.  This Marie-Josepeh Guédry was born in Boston, MA in 1723 and was the twin of Hélène Guédry.  Her baptismal record is in the St-Charles-aux-Mines Catholic Church Registers of Grand-Pré, Acadie  (Volume 2, No. 42).  Evidence that the Marie-Josephe Guédry who married Charles Boutin was the daughter of Augustin Guédry and Jeanne Hébert can be found in several sources.  For example, in 1752 this family is living at Baie-des-Espagnols, Ile Royale near Paul Boutin and Ursule Guédry.  Paul Boutin and Charles Boutin were brothers.  Ursule Guédry (also called Eustache Guédry) was the daughter of Augustin Guédry and Jeanne Hébert.  Living with Charles Boutin and Marie-Josephe Guédry was Hélène Guédry (also called Eleine Guédry), the sister of Marie-Josephe Guédry.  Additionally, in August 1754 nine Acadian men and their families returned from Ile Royale to Halifax and then Lunenburg.  Included were Paul Boutin and Charles Boutin.  All of the Guédry persons returning were children of Augustin Guédry and Jeanne Hébert and included all of their children except Jean-Baptiste Guédry. There are additional circumstantial pieces of evidence and more can be found at the above link under the title "Guédry's Exiled to North Carolina". To the best of my knowledge Paul Guédry and Anne Mius did not have a daughter named Marie Josephe Guédry.  Your argument in item 2 certainly is still valid.  Instead of using Marie-Josephe Guédry as the older of the pair, one would use Jacques, born about 1724 and who would have been about 28 in 1752. Thanks for your response and followup to my query.
