Family connection

Parents. Daughter of Jean Pierre Le Claire (1718–1793) and Jacqueline Antoinette Marie Catherine Van der Vyvere (1726–1789).

Position in the Direct Line

Marie J. A. Leclaire is a collateral figure of the wider House and is not part of the continuous bloodline shown on the home-page pedigree. Their branch descends from Jean Pierre Le Claire, Très Noble Seigneur in the direct line.

Historical context

Marie J. A. Leclaire belonged to the same remarkable generation that produced Général de Division Théodore François Joseph Leclaire and Louis Jean Baptiste Leclaire. As a daughter of Jean Pierre Le Claire and Jacqueline Van der Vyvere, she formed part of the generation through which the family's Lorraine and Flemish inheritances were carried forward into the late eighteenth century.
