Son of Philippe and Eugenie Simard Doucet, of Ste Anne du Bocage, New Brunswick.
On Attestation Paper, Pte. Doucet handwrote his surname as "Doucett" with two "T", however, the trancribed name is written with one T for the remainder of his records. Additionally, Pte. Doucet(t) was only 19 years of age when he died, not 21 as indicated in many references.
