      Note: On many baptism records place of birth is not noted as such, on some after they moved from Montreal island the place of residence is noted as Côte de Lauzon, with many baptisms being done in Sillery or Québec city some time after the births. From census records, they were residing in said Côte de Lauzon throughout those years, which would mean those children were actually born there.

      ==Notes== This surname rises from the short monosyllable farmhouse indicating a rural house, but which, in ''langue d'oïl'' (spoken in Northern France) was més or mas. From it stem the patronyms Dumay, Dumet, Dumeiz, Dumez, Dumets, Dumais and Demers.
