    J.P.’s great-great-grandfather Alfred Vignot was born in France. Marietta’s paternity is in dispute. Sarah Johnston’s mother was Irish, and if her father was John Johnston, then he was Irish too. No Dutch. Van Beuren is Marietta’s second husband’s name.

    He’s related to Amedee J. Van Beuren (great-great-uncle)
