Pierre Chastain Lineage

Pierre (Peter Jacob?) Chastain (pg 1) (b 9 Apr 1659 Charost province of Berri, France d 30 Oct 1728 King William Parish VA)  Parents John Francis Chasteen 1612-1660 and Francoise Jane Renault 1607-1694
      |          Note: Jacques is the French equivalent of James, ultimately originating from the name Jacob. As a first name, Jacques is often phonetically converted to English as Jacob, Jake, or Jack,
      |               but the last is not an accurate translation (Jack, from Jankin, is strictly a diminutive of John. Note that on Ancestry.com family trees, Pierre Chastain b 1659 France is referred to also as:
      |               Dr. Pierre "Peter" Chastain, Dr Pierre Jacob Chasteen, Dr. Pierre Peter Jacob Chastain, Capt. Pierre "Peter" James Chastain, Capt Pierre Jacob Chastain and finally on this pass,
      |               Doctor Pierre Louis Chastain. These variations just expand my dislike of the name James!
