Notes

Biographi.ca donne beaucoup de détails sur sa vie, quoiqu'il y a erreur à propos de son père et de l'arrivée de celui-ci comme soldat, il n'était pas soldat à son arrivée, et ne le fut jamais sauf comme milicien, tous les hommes en état de porter les armes en étant. (voir son profil). (English version available on site, there is an error about his father's arrival here as a soldier, he was not a soldier on arrival, and never was, although part of the militia as all able bodied men were. see his profile).
