Several sources5284,11293,5209 give the birth year of Genevieve La Garenne, daughter of Jean La Garenne and Anne Potier, as about 1753. One source11296,11297 provide her day of birth as 6 October 1744 and date of baptism as 18 October 1744. In all cases the parents of Genevieve La Garenne are listed as Jean La Garenne and Anne Potier. It is possible that the Genevieve La Garenne born in 1744 was an older sister of a Genevieve La Garenne born about 1753 and who marrie Pierre Firmin Braud.
