Questions Re: Richard Metty (Felix, Joseph, Jaques)

By Ellen Rose - July 08, 2010

I have information from Geneology of the French Families of the Detroit River Region 1701-1936, Vol. II of Richard Metty's marriage to Victoria Bissonet; I have her death as occuring prior to 1856 and that his 2nd marriage was to Rachel Knaggs. Other research states Victoire Thibeaut, married Richard on 3 Oct. 1849 and died in 1855. His death notices state he was an upstanding citizen, so I don't think polygamy was happening (although who knows, stranger things have happened). So, does anyone know when Victoria Bissonet died, who Victoria Thibeaut was, and was Rachel Knaggs, then, Richard's 2nd or third wife? Or is this a mystery worth exploring??
