Leonor was one of 10 children, but I don't have their dates, spouses, etc., except for three of the boys. Also, there is an Eleanore Menard, parents Pierre-Amable and Marie-Louise Moreau, who married Joseph Hortez in 1806. I don't have either the Hottinger or Curry name or any Josephine Menards, but I have a Celina, daughter of Francois Menard and Philomene Gravel, who married Octave Durocher in 1895. Also a Celine, daughter of Julien Menard and Sophie Odelin, who married Regis Brault in 1874. These dates don't seem to line up with your family, however. There were a lot of Menards, and it seems as if the same first names were popular with all of them! We thought for years that we were descended from the Pierre Menard who was first lieutenant governor of Illinois, but definitely we are not! Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Best, Rebecca
