Research notes

Mother of Charl Prieur du PlessisH (PER-001903). The chart gives her parents as LUCS MENANTEAU (1650) and JEANNE LAURAUT (1650); neither is given a row here, for the reason on PER-001905.

[FS] Added 23 Aug 2026 from a FamilySearch fan chart of Daniel du PlessisM supplied by Frans. Thin record; no place imported.| *** BOUNDED BY 9a. *** This is the head of a trail leading out of the district, and the rule is that such a thread 'gets one story and a bounded set of records. It does not get grown.' The generation that CROSSED is recorded; the French generations behind it are written into the note on PER-001905 and given no rows of their own.

These are working notes, not finished prose: they carry the reasoning, the corrections and the things still marked to verify. They are kept here so the page itself can read as what is known.
