Jean Pitre's origins
Hi, I'm a Peters from Maine and I recently found out that I am directly related to the Pitre family through the Price Edward Island Peters. I hear that our first known ancestor was a person called Jean Pitre, I am currently looking for information about his origins and I must say I am quite confused. I read the Belle isle en mer statements and found that Jean was Flemish which would probably make him a Belgian. Yet everywhere I look I find statements that call him english, others that say he was dutch, others that say he was french and still others say he was scottish. If belle isle en mer is all we have to go on how are these other theories validated? Any info you might have would be a help thanks.
