- Historical story: Marguerite Anthiaume grew up in Paris. Her 1676 Montréal marriage to André Jarret de Beauregard identifies her father Michel Anthiaume as an exempt du grand prévôt de l’Hôtel de Paris, an official role associated with the royal household. Marguerite settled in New France and became an ancestor of François-Alexandre Jarret and the Charlebois branch. This provides a fascinating historical link to the French court, although not descent from a monarch. lead
- Evidence and cautions: The official title is quoted in transcriptions of the 1676 marriage register. The father was a royal-household officer, not established nobility or kin of the king. Do not describe Marguerite as a princess or blood relative of the royal family. lead
