Interesting article! When I created the article titled Moreau's necklace-counting function in 2004, I suspected that these three were the same person, since it seemed to be hinted by a couple of things in published sources and internet discussions. I had no idea this would remain so mysterious. I think the paper by Gian-Carlo Rota that I cited in that article said that the function had been introduced by "Colonel Moreau of the French army".
