Charles:

While I'm sure that your 30+ years of research are absolutely impeccable, a precedent exists which may refute one of your more blatent statements.
One of my ancestors was Jeanne d'Albret (1528-1572). Perhaps you have heard of her, what with this Huguenot movement and so on. She was a leading proponent of Protestanism in France. She died and left a son, who became King Henry IV of France. After several years, he re-became a Catholic. So, it is possible for parents and offspring to disagree on matters of religion.
Next, Allemand Brassieur (1575-1625) was married in 1594, certainly not an unusual age to be marrying during any time. His proposed son, Robert, was not born until 1597 when Allemand was at least 22 years old. Again, this is not a problem.
So, I was just wondering why you said that the age spread was not sufficient for a generation. I was also wondering why you said that Allemand could hardly be a Catholic and his son a Protestant, when, in fact, the Reformation just happened to be going on at this very time.
Just wondering.
