Note: Per IGD her supposed brother Jean Perrier is actually a clerical error, the child's name being written as Jean, copying the father's name, but it would be Madeleine.
Date: Unknown, estimated around 1675, see notes below.
Notes: This record had a previous birth date of 25 FEB 1674 in Beauport, unfortunately this is not possible as the only births recorded from church records on that day are related to Jean Perrier[1], son of Jean Perrier dit Lafleur and Marie Gaillard. Seems like it is the same parents as the person in this record but of the wrong sex and name. The previous and next records are not related to the same family. (The LAFRANCE summary for Jean Perrier indicate female, but looking at the actual text of the record, it is clear it is indicated "fils" which means son, not "fille" which would have been for a daughter.)
Notes: Due to the church records burning down in 1916[2] the original records are no longer available and we have to rely on copies, unfortunately some years appear to be missing including years 1675, 1676, 1677 and 1818.

Notes: ** According to a document shared on the Reid Family tree[6] it seems that one of the Jean-Baptiste Sabourin would have falsified his family history, which would explain why records in the PRDH[5] indicates that two Jean Baptiste Sabourin, one born in 1696 and one in 1701 both lived to marry different wives.

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Madeleine by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Madeleine:
