  • Notes 
    • John Baptist was married at the age of twenty-one to Sophie Carmelle Richard in the church of Cap St. Ignace. She was the daughter of, Charles Abraham Richard, a cabinet maker and architect. His daughter described him as a man who was not attached to wealth and who was eager to provide a good education for his children. He hired tutors for them the year round. When Sophie was about nine years old, he permitted the use of the upper story of his house as a schoolroom for the children of the parish. As Sophie had learned to read at an early age, she helped the schoolmaster to teach catechism and the alphabet to children older than she.
