Notes

There was a Lazal 1st and a Lazal 2nd listed in the Durham Land papers. Lazal 2nd appears to be Lazalis in other records. Neither name appears to be a true family name, as descendants used a number of different family names.

Lazar 1st m. Marguerite Annance. Marguerite also had children by Francois Vassal. We have no reliable dates to for either man. Marie Cecile Lazare b.bef.1780 is probably the child of Lazar. Francois Joseph & Robert may be other children of Lazare & Marguerite.
