Notes for Antoine Roy:
THE ARCHIVES OF JOINGY YIELDED AN UNEXPECTED SURPRISE.
WE DISCOVERED THAT ANTOINE HAD,BY CATHERINE GYOT,TWO SONS,JACQUES
AND EDME. DESPITE THE FACT THAT WE COULD NOT FIND THE MARRIAGE RECORD
OF ANTOINE AND CATHERINE.WE ARE CERTAIN IT'S THE SAME ANCESTOR,
BECAUSE THE BAPTISMAL RECORDS BETWEEN 1627 AND 1681 SHOW THE
NAME ANTOINE ROY ONLY THREE TIMES, IN 1635 AS THE SON OF OLIVIER, AND
IN 1658, AND 1660 AS THE FATHER OF THE TWO BOYS.WHY DID ANTOINE
ABANDON HIS FAMILY IN JOINGY ,AND COME TO QUEBEC ? THAT IS A VERY INT ERESTING
QUESTION .WE THINK THAT THE PERSONALITY OF ANOINE FITTED IN WITH TH E ABANDONING
OF HIS FAMILY IN FRANCE ,FOR A MORE ADVENTUROUS LIFE IN THE NEW WORLD.
