The book Exile Without an End by Chapman J. Milling has the lists
prepared by 3 of the ship captains. The lists show the name of the head
of families and the number [but not names] of the children.

The list for the ship Cornwallis includes John Multon [Mouton] with a
wife and 10 children. DGFA, pgs. 1238-1239 lists 10 children for Sr.
Jean Mouton and Marie Girouard.

The list for the Sloop Endeavour lists John Multon [Mouton] with a wife
and 3 children. DGFA, p. 1238 list a son Jean born 1712 who married
Marguerite Poirier on 1/19/1734. SAW shows that he has additional
information.

The number of chilren for Jean Mouton and Marie Girouard indicates that
they may have had more than 10 children since some of the older ones
were married by 1756 and would not have been included in the number of
children since they would have been Head of Families.
