If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?

About Me

From the French Canadian and Acadian Genealogical Review Vol 1 No 2 Summer 1968: According to the testimonies of Jean Morin dit Ducharme and Rene Deneau, Jr. of Jun 19, 1713, Jacques-Francois Morin, commander of the privateer Le Trompeur, which he had outfitted at Quebec and at Cape-Breton, left on its cruise May 14th, 1712, against the enemies of the State. After having followed for some time the eastern coast, the pirates perceived three small English boats, which they followed as far as the Paskep harbor, where they attacked them. The date was August 25, 1712. Not feeling themselves to be sufficiently strong, the enemy fled on one of the vessels, abandoning the two others, of two tons each, called La Mutine and Le Gaillard. The vanquishers found there 12 kegs of salt and 2 thousand sliced cod.
