There is an old Chapelle Saint-Remy d'Allofroy in Auberive (http://www2.cr-champagne-ardenne.fr/edifices_religieux_52/IA52001575.html), but the document linked in the Fichier Origine (comment below, from Roger) makes a good case for the Breuvannes-en-Bassigny origin. Breuvannes is home of the Église paroissiale Saint-Rémy (http://www2.cr-champagne-ardenne.fr/edifices_religieux_52/IA52000832.html). Both churches are part of the diocese of Langres.
As a final note, there is also contradictory information with respect to Jean's military service; while there is no doubt the a Jean Salva dit Laviolette was a participant in the Seven Years' War in North America, the CCBN site indicates that Jean Salva first arrived in Canada in 1756 as part of the Guyenne regiment (Troupes de Montcalm). However, research by Rénald Lessard (Société de généalogie de Québec) indicates that a "Jean Salvat Laviolette", member of the Compagnies franches de la Marine, sailed from France in 1750 on board of "Le Saint-Florentin".
All sources cited above have their subject marrying Marie-Luise Pelessier in 1761...
Hope this is a helpful addition to the conversation.
