Further information: Attempting to identify and follow this
particular line of Pitres, some of whom migrated to Michigan, has been extremely
difficult. The changes in spellings of both first and last names, missing
census information, etc. has meant that sometimes the connections are educated
guesses rather than provable facts. I've included considerably more on
these family pages in an attempt to identify those connections but also to
provide a platform for others to compare their research. If you have
definitive proof that a connection is correct/incorrect, please email a scanned
copy or a link to an online page.
