    • Notes: 
    • Online genealogies claim that the Marie Roy who married Joseph Clement Jr. was the daughter of Joseph Roy and Marie-Joseph Leroux. That Marie Roy was the second wife of Joseph Clement Sr. and the step-mother of this Marie Roy's husband Joseph Clement Jr. How likely is it that the son would marry the his step-mother while his father is very much alive? The marriage record for the Marie Roy and Joseph Clement Jr. gives her mother's name as Marie Groux.
