I agree, I'm not totally convinced that Paul Benoit is his father. We know he met Marie Chaussegros on the L'Oranger and md.
Many sources I checked and rechecked have no parents for Martin Benoit, most have "unknown ".
It's also noted on a couple sources that Etienne Benoit is not Paul Benoit son also.
As I always have said......th ere are some things abt my/our ancestors that we will never know the answer!

I agree as well that Paul and Marie are likely not his parents. By estimated birth dates of all three, Paul would have been 17 and Marie would have been 4 at the time of Paul's birth. While Paul's age is believable, I don't think it is realistic to say that Marie had a child at 4 years of age. For that reason, I think Marie should not be shown as Martin's mother.
