While searching the Programme de recherche en démographie historique (PRDH) Pioneer Files, I found Pierre Alexandre Picard. Pierre Alexandre is listed in the PRDH in the immigrant section for men who had at least 1 son who married. Pierre Alexandre is also found in l'Abbe Cyprien Tanguay's Dictionnaire généalogique des familles canadiennes depuis la fondation de la colonie jusqu'à nos jours (Tanguay). Some marrige information comes from the Institut généalogique Drouin's Répertoire alphabétique des mariages des Canadiens français, 1760-1935 (Blue Drouin); Répertoire alphabétique des mariages des Canadiens français, 1760-1935 : ordre féminin (Blue Drouin - feminin); and Dictionnaire national des Canadiens français, 1608-1760 (Red Drouin) as posted by Best Bill of the Quebec-Research-L mailing list. Information on granddaughter Rachel Ester Picard, her husband Lambert Frank Grignon, and their descendents was provided by descendents of that lineage. "LINEAGE CONTINUES" indicates that my database continues more about that particular line.

There were three immigrant Alexandre Picards who married in the 1750's in the province of Quebec. The other two are Louis Alexandre Picard and Alexandre Noiret dit Picard.
