In searching for my Seguin line from France to Canada, I have run into 2 lines. I'm hoping someone can enlighten me and connect these Seguins.


According to PRDH record #93316, my 7X greatgrandmother, Marguerite Seguin, was the daughter of Francois Seguin and Simone Verret. Marguerite was b- 24 Sep 1644, France and was married to Etienne Proteau. She died in Charlesbourg 18-Feb-1702. Her father Francois, was born in Paris, France about 1611 and died 09 May 1704 in Montreal, Canada. Her mother Simone Verret, b- abt 1620 in France.

My second line is through Francois Seguin b-04 Jul 1744 and Jeanne Petit, m- 31 Oct 1672 in Boucherville. This Francois' parents were Laurent Seguin, b- abt 1621 in France, and Marie Mossieu.

The 1744 Francois is in the same dated area as 1744 Marguerite. Is her father, (abt.1611) Francois a brother of (abt.1621) Laurent?

Does anyone have information to share on these families?

Thank you.
