Hi Janet,
According to SW's dictionary, "It is imposible for the mother of Germain Doucet's children to have been a sister of Jacques Bourgeois's wife, as some writers have claimed, considering that Bourgeois's father and mother-in-law were only married in 1627. It is nevertheless possible that Germain Doucet married secondly Guillaume Trahan's daughter, who subsequently gave him no children who survived in Acadia, but it is also possible that his second wife was Jacques Bourgeois's sister and not his wife's sister."
This is the reason Germain's wife's name is unknown. She could not be Marie Bourgeois, so even saying "perhaps" is misleading.
