It specifically concerns the John H. Amirault attributed to Henri "Jenkins" Amirault. Jenkins Amirault was born about 1822, but is later confused with a Henry Amirault b. about 1838. There is also another Henry born in 1837. I'm most interested in finding the parentage of the Henry Amirault who married Mary Madeline Saulnier (family #4 below). Below are four Henry families and their sons John, along with 1881, 1901, and 1911 census info to show that they are unique individuals. If anyone can help with parentage or descendants of the 4th families listed, please drop me a line.
