*******please note these names and chldren match virtually all the geneological postings today of the family now known as just Sire in France**********
******** the Metayer family is represented in weddings in Loudun as well: some past records post a Pierre Sire marrying a Jeanne Metayer: so it is important to know the Metayer family was also Protestant for further searches)
**********we know the family was in Vendee during the 1600's, but it is helpful to know the name was recorded as either Le Sire or Lesire and Sire........it appears Lesuire and Sire are one and the same family if we follow it in a family tree chart.......and the variations are just a matter of how it was recorded/written at the time******
****it is not until nearly 1700 we see Suireau and Sureau and Serreau names: same family? altered spellings? recent arrivals of a different family? unknown but these versions do not appear until very late in the records after 1690 especially in Isle Bouchard:*****
******re: connections to the Clemenceau family:
we have in 1578
Jeanne Clemenceau daugher of Jacques Clemeceau and Marie Duquay
marries
Pierre Maillet
(this would be one generation sooner than our Sire/Clemenceau connection but indicates the families were in the same "parish" if you will)
***********
It is also useful to know that certain branches of the family used the dit name Dauphin...........which of course refers to roots far east and south near Montbeliard/Paris/Champagne regions........
********it is also useful to note that the Mongeau family is represented but spelled Mongot....as in Jeanne Mongot 1675 marries Pierre Chauvet:sieur de Rochefolle/ this is useful as well as we know Pierre Sire married the widow Jeanne Mongeault circa 1615)
********also of interest the varying socio economic status of the family Sire: it appears the very earliest are in general of Sieur or noble status.......some retain it but most seem to have lost this standing: likely as a result of the devestation of the various religious purges in the region.*******
