♂Pierre Mallet

Pierre Mallet (baptized 3 February 1700 at Montréal) was a son of Rene Malet and Marie Lecuyer. He was the seventh great-grand-uncle of Nancy Jane Blanchard (1929–2006), the brother of Francois Mallet (born 1701), who was Nancy Jane’s seventh great-grandfather.

Family

Both of Pierre’s grandfathers were named Pierre: his father’s father was Pierre Maillet, and his mother’s father was Pierre Lescuyer. His parents had married at Montréal on 17 October 1689, and he was one of eleven children, ten of whom are on record as baptized there between 1691 and 1707.

His father was buried at Montréal on 24 October 1716, aged 50, when Pierre was sixteen. In 1721 his mother married Jean Baptiste Renault of Québec. No marriage, children or death is recorded for Pierre himself, so his own life cannot be followed past his baptism.

Notes

Another Pierre baptized in 1700

A different child was baptized at Montréal in the same year: Pierre Antoine, on 20 June 1700, the son of Pierre Mallet and Madeleine Dufresne. That family later lived at Detroit, and the records of its members are not his.
