I don't know very much about Octavia's parents.Her death certificate lists an Antoine Shurbonneau as her father. There is an Antoine Sherbino age 37, wife Adeline age 35, and daughter(?) Julia age 17 in the 1870 census for Minnesota.The 1910 census for St Paul shows them as living just down the street from Octavia Laclair.It lists Julia as being a sister-in-law to Alvin Rudolph.
As for Peter's parents, I found thier marriage in the bookMariages de St Joseph de Burlington, Vermont by Veronique Gassette.
p.137 "LeClair (Leclerc) Jean Phillippe 12-11-1834.Parents Frs
Elisabeth Faneuf Parents F. Baptiste & Elis
They names in brackets are my guesses as to the actual names.
I have also been to the Diocese in Burlington, VT and found that Faneuf was also recorded in the church records as Phaniff, Phenix, and Phaneuf. To muddy the waters a little bit, a relative told me Phillip's wife's name was Ane Elizabeth Bestley-Faneuf
