- Pierre Servant came from a large family in Saintes, in the Charente-Maritime region of France. His parents François Servant, a hosiery merchant, and Catherine Petit were married in the St Vivien parish of Saintes on 27th September 1734 (see image 104 here). Records from the parish of St Pierre, Saintes, indicate the following children from this marriage:
Marie, born before 1738, when she was named as godparent to her sister Marie (image 65).
Our Pierre, also born before 1738, also named as godparent to the second Marie (image 65).
Marie Louise, known as Louise, born 10th March 1739 and baptised 12th March (image 4).
Barthelemy, born 30th April 1740 and baptised 1st May (image 16).
Elizabeth Eustelle, known as Eustelle or Ustelle, born 21st May 1741 and baptised on the 23rd (image 26).
Louis, born 28th July 1744 and baptised 30th July (image 55).
Another Marie, born 19th August 1745 and baptised 21st August (image 65).

Another Pierre, born 28th December 1747 and baptised 29th December (image 84).
