Notes - Lippe pg 422
DOB: 1900 Census
The 1900 Census says his parents were born in France, I find this very doubtful. This census is riddled with mistakes, such as birth dates of the children which has been corrected by birth certificates, and wife Amanda's place of birth which was Baker Lake, Canada.
His first child's record of birth has Elodie (Maquis) Violette RIN 2270 vouching for his birth on the birth record so I suspect she is related. Elodie was married to Desire Violette RIN 2059 who's father is Jean Desire Violette RIN 1517. Jean is often pronounced John. All this points to Jean Desire Violette RIN 1517 as a possible father, but proof needs to be found to confirm this.
