All the information I am seeing shows that Etienne and Marie Magdaleine had the same mother but different fathers. Could this be so? I need more information to prove/disprove this. In Catholic France, unless one was royalty, I cannot see this being allowed by the church.
If anyone has any further information about this, I would love to read it!

Felipe González de Otoya De Narváez can you provide a source for that? I did a little research before doing so and didn't find anything. For example, FrancoGene, which is pretty reliable doesn't have anything.

Nor does nosorigines.

The sources at Wikitree appear to be PRDH and Rapport de l'archiviste de la province de Québec and I don't see a father listed for Etienne in any of them.
I am one of the Curators that covers French Canadian ancestry, but let me tag some additional ones - maybe they'll find something. morel, Paul Louis Doré, Private User, Angus Wood-Salomon, Byron Jason Whitesides
I haven't seen a record or research text, but someone at WikiTree thought that "Dictionnaire Genealogique Des Familles du Quebec" might have a source for the father being Jean St-Pair. However, I would expect to see that reflected in common French / Canadian sites if it was accepted.
