Etienne Benoit family confusion
Several published records concerning the children of Etienne Benoit, father (1662-1746), and Etienne Benoit, son (1702-1757), have been in error.and this confusion occurred because they both married Charles women, one Helene Charles dit Lajeunesse and the other Marie Charlotte Charles dit Lajeunesse. Helene Charles and Clement Charles were siblings and the children of Etienne Charles and Madeleine Niel. Marie Charlotte Charles was the daughter of Clement Charles and Marie Dupre, making Helene Charles her aunt. Helene Charles married Etienne Benoit, the father as her second marriage in 1722. Charlotte Charles married Etienne Benoit, the son, as her first marriage in 1726. Etienne Benoit and Helene Charles had no children whereas Etienne Benoit and Charlotte Charles had fifteen children.
