That's interesting. There's been a legend in my family, denied by my grandmother but vouched for by a second cousin, that "Leo the Lip" was a distant cousin. I think you just tied him in--but many generations back.

You may be interested in knowing that you are also related to the Blessed Marie Rose Durocher (Eulalie Durocher--the Eulalie in your list was probably named for her cousin). Your list starts with Joseph Durocher whose son, Olivier married Theresa Julliet. Olivier's brother, Joseph, married Teresa Julliet's sister, Marie-Louise Catherine Julliet. Olivier's grandson, another Olivier Durocher, married Joseph's granddaughter, Marie Genevieve Francois Durocher. They had 11 children, the tenth they named Eulalie. Eulalie founded a teaching order of nuns and was Beatified by John-Paul II.
