[edit]

If you look at the link entitled New Horizons - Fort Pentagouet you will notice the text attributes construction to Charles de Saint-Étienne de la Tour instead of the father, Claude and in 1625. This is almost certainly not the case as Charles was otherwise occupied at Cap de Sable in Acadia. He, no doubt, visited the fort on one or more occasions and may have had responsibility for its construction. The fort was built by the father over a period of time. I included that source primarily for the circa 1670 map which may have prompted Randin's trip or may have resulted from his trip. Please clarify any of this material. --Stormbay 23:20, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
