Death record: "âgé d'environ dix huit ans" -- age about 18 years, which is incorrect by about a year.

Birth record: "vingt six floreal an neuf" in the French Republican calendar, which equates to 16 May 1801. The birth was not registered till "seixieme Prerial an Dix," or, 5 Jun 1802, after the parents were married.

Notes:

Another man named Marin Joseph Perrollaz was b. in Magland in 1742 and d. there 10 Sep 1825, aged 83. And yet another man named Marin Joseph Perrollaz was b. in Magland in 1752 and d. there 26 Aug 1827, aged 75. There are also men b. around the same time named Marin Perrollaz, Joseph Perrollaz, Joseph Marie Perrollaz, and at least one woman named Marie Josephine Perrollaz. Extreme caution is required to avoid confusing any or all of them with this man.

Birth:
Parish registry of Magland is missing for the summer of 1745.
Searched registry of Sallanches, 1738 - 1745.
Searched registry of Cluses, 1739 - 1742 (1743-1750 are missing).
Searched registry of Arâches-la-Frasse, 1738 - 1746.
Searched registry of Nancy-sur-Cluses, 1739 - 1745.
Searched registry of Scionzier, 1738 - 1745.

Death record: "agé de soixante trois an"; it is inaccurate.
Marriage record (Claudine Sautier): "âgé de cinquante six ans six mois"; it is accurate and cites a birth record that seems no longer to exist.

Name:
The surname could be read as "Perrolas" or "Perrolar" in some records but people living in Magland today are named Perrollaz. It is possible to compare against words such as "onze" and "Suzanne" to determine that the last letter of the name is a 'z.'

Died:
Died at his home in Les Ranziers, a hamlet of about a half dozen farms clinging to the mountainside opposite the main village of Magland.

Marin married Claudine Sautier 10 Jan 1802, Magland, Haute-Savoie, France. Claudine was born 1 Apr 1758, Magland, Haute-Savoie, France; died 9 Jun 1831; was buried 10 Jun 1831, Magland, Haute-Savoie, France. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

No more marriages found for this family in the Magland registers, 1814-1848. (1 Feb 2023)
No more deaths found for this family in the Magland registers, 1814-1860. (2 Feb 2023)

Notes:

Birth:
Death record: "agé d'environ Soixante et Dix ans." Aged about sixty and ten years.

Louis Perrolaz b. 13 Jun 1697 and bap. 14 Jun 1697 in Magland, son of Jean Claude Perrolaz and Anne Arbley.
François Perrola b.and bap. 3 Mar 1698 in Magland, son of Andre Perrola and George Perrola.

Searched Magland registry, 1699, 1701-1703; no other good possibilities found (1700 is missing, as are records after 1703 till 1711).

The last is possibly the correct record, resulting in an age that matches the death record and a high likelihood of the consanguinity noted on the marriage record of Marin Joseph Perrollaz with Anne Marie Arbley. The consanguinity can be investigated across all three of these baptisms, though gaps in the Magland registries may make it impossible to confirm.

Regarding the first baptism listed, no other children found for this couple in Magland registries, 1683-1699; no marriage found 1683-1689 (marriages missing for 1690 and later).

Regarding the last baptism listed, other children of the couple:
None found in 1680.

Name:
He was sometimes known as "Louis" and sometimes as "Louis François."

Died:
There are several potential death/burial records in the Magland register for Louis François Perrolaz. None refer to him by his full name. However, marriage records for his children do refer to him by his full name, and two of them bracket his death by only a year, the later referring to him as "feu" or "late."

Louis — Catherine Provence. Catherine (daughter of Jean Provence and Jeanne Claudia Perret) was born 11 Dec 1709; was christened 11 Dec 1709, Magland, Haute-Savoie, France; died 12 Sep 1782; was buried 13 Sep 1782, Magland, Haute-Savoie, France. [Group Sheet]

Name:
Surname is somewhat indistinct in marriage record of Marin Joseph Perrolaz.

Notes:

Probably married in Magland, but some relevant years of the parish registry are missing.

Magland parish records are missing, 1738-1744 and summer of 1745. See Marin Joseph Perrollaz for a list of neighboring parishes searched, and in which no members of this family were found. (7 Jan 2023)

Magland register includes a marriage of Jean François, son of François Perrolaz with Maurizaz, dau. Jean Claude Perret, on 3 Aug 1764. (5 Feb 2023)

Birth order in regards to Jeanne is speculative, based on the gap between Claude M and M Joseph, which is primarily due to missing parts of the registry, and also that women most often married in their early-to-mid twenties.

The couple appear as godparents at the baptism of Marie Catherine Provence, daughter of Joseph Provence and Marie Catherine Cordier, 15 Jul 1752 (Magland Registry).
