Claude Bertrand, no kin to the childless Clément, married Catherine, daughter of Jean Pitre and Marie Pesseley, in c1685. De Meulles counted them at Port-Royal in 1686. Claude, called a Bertran, was age 35, and Catherine was 18. De Meulles noted that "they live at Cap de Sable." He counted no children with them at Port-Royal. Oldest child Claude, fils was born the year of the census, so they probably were childless when de Meulles counted them.
