Name Pierre Pitard Gender Male Death Bef Jan 1700 - He is described as “deffunt” on the marriage record of his son Pierre.
Notes - His name “Pierre Pitard” appears on his son Pierre’s marriage record. His parentage is obscure because there are lots of Pierre Pitards in the area:
—Pierre Pitard, b. in Ligné abt. 1630, m. Jeanne Lerat in 1652 in Petit Mars
—Pierre Pitard, m. Julienne Leduc in 1646 in Mouzeil
—Pierre Pitard husband of Janne Amiot, whose son François was married in 1640 in Ligné
—Pierre Pitard who was baptized in Mouzeil on 19 June 1633, the son of Pierre Pitard and Julienne Menoret, who had been married in Mouzeil in abt. 1612. On their marriage record he is described as “paroissien de Ligné,” and she as “paroissienne de Mouzeil.” This couple had four other children who appear in the Mouzeil parish records.
But aside from the names, there is no evidentiary connection to securely identify any of this Pierres with this one.
And these are just those I know of. All are on the north side of the Loire, and I have not checked all towns. Other Pitard families appear south of the river, esp. in Corsept, to the east.
One document that would help is the marriage record between Pierre Pitard and Prégente Denis. She seems not to be from Mouzeil, however, and there’s no indication of her origin that might tell of the town in which they were married (marriages usually taking place in the bride’s home parish).
