André JARRET dit BEAUREGARD

( - 1691)

JARRET de BEAUREGARD (Sieur de Beauregard). Spelling variations: JARED, JARET, JARRET, JARRED

Jetté states that François Jarret de Verchères was probably the parent of André Jarret, spouse of Marguerite Anthiaume (and my ancestor)! The standard version is that André was the half brother of François, not his son. I have wondered if André was illegitimate, but I hadn`t questioned the fact that his parents were Jean Jarret and Perrette Sermette. I need to look into this possibility more closely!

Granted the concession of the three Iles Beauregard (near Vercheres) on 17 August 1674. Drouin: "En 1674, Frontenac lui conceda `les ilots du St-Laurent dont l'un est proche de l'ile Longue appartenant au sieur de Vercheres, son frere.'"
