Louise Bastinaud, known as Pelletier, was not a Fille du Roi. Around 1684, she married Louis Saulnier, a sailor born around 1663. Louise's origin is unknown to us.

Concerning Louis Saulnier, it is an established fact that a soldier from Du Vivier's company, originally from Vitré in Brittany, died at the Port Royal Hospital on March 10, 1710. Is this the same Louis Saulnier?

Here are the descendants of this couple;
