Felix & Mary Catherine Le May Metty Family

Felix and his wife Catherine are the common ancestors of almost all of the METTY descendants that I have been able to identify to date, so I thought it would be beneficial to list what I know about them and their children. Which one is your ancestor!!

Felix, son of Joseph and Catherine Dufour Metty was born on the 19th of October 1766 at River aux Soble, Northeast coast of Detroit, probably in the area of Sandwich which today lies in the Canadian Province of Ontario. His wife Catherine was the daughter of Theophile Le May and Mary Angelica Peltier and was born on 24 November 1775 in Detroit. They married on 21 October 1793 at Detroit. She was buried at Detroit on 19 May 1834. Felix died 17 November 1758 at Monroe. To this union was born at least 14 children:
