Copied from her father's page:

Note: The possible marriage (of Louis Blin) to Marie Daigle has not been added pending a confirmation source. In this profile, "Source: S.A. White " and the reference to her as the mother of Anne Blin suggests the possibility that Louis might have had a child with Marie. Requires a confirmation source.

Genealogy reference: " Marie's second child, Anne, was born about the end of Dec 1708 in Pisiquit, Acadia, and baptized 14 Apr 1709 in Grand-Pré, Acadia; baptism note "père inconnu" indicates her father was unknown. Her father was Louis Blain (Blin or Hablin), not married to Marie.
