Cousins Below is the ancestry, wives & children of Claude Guédry per Stephen A White's Dictionnaire. The Family researchers & association have him as the son of JB's Brother Charles and an Amerindian that family tradition has as Morning Star. This is the only case I am aware of a wife having a translated name. We also have a different(/similar) family name & parents for her. What does Bona Arsenault have? Oral tradition for the Guédry family is a little different in that in the 1960-70s Bernard Jeddry went to the branch on Bay St Mary, NS & collected the genealogy and the "great grandmother" stories that their grandmothers had told them. What is truth & what is legend who knows. This is some of my early work. In the next couple of days, I will update from my other sources & repost. Any errors let me know. Please remember this was an East Coast family & some researchers want to make everyone a resident of Port-Royal because that was where the Church & registers were kept.
