Sifroy Guéret dit Dumont (1813-1881), the son of a Kamouraska farmer, had the good fortune to marry Julie Saint-Pierre (1824-1900) of Saint-André, in 1845. She was the daughter of a merchant. The couple had two children, William and Angèle.

Sifroy Guéret learned from his father-in-law’s experience how to become a merchant.
