Quick search for me doesn't find a source - I'll try to investigate this more this weekend. I see that WikiTree has the connection as well, but don't see a source for it. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Gaschet-1
I don't see such a connection on Francogene. http://www.francogene.com/genealogie-quebec-genealogy/002/002462.php
And I don't see it on Nosorigines. http://www.nosorigines.qc.ca/genealogieSearch.aspx?lng=en
Regardless it seems no evicdence that her alleged grandfather sir Thomas Beaumont had no child named Marie. Even then it seems weird that tow parents who were born and died and England had a child born in France.

Seems to happen to many of my older French Canadian lines. Many people have a line to nobility and eventually some royalty through an old French Canadian ancestor that upon inspection seems invalid. Worst example i have seen is Jean Guyon has a father named Jean Guyon and a grandfather named Jean Guyon and so on going back hundreds of years to connnect to nobility but seems completely falsified as the person who added refused to show their sources and the curator refuses to remove the connection.

I have no problem disconnecting them if we have no sources and the reliable sites don't show it: disconnect Marie Gaschet from Urbain Gaschet and Marie Gaschet, and Marie Gaschet from Sir Thomas de Beaumont, of Stoughton Grange and Lady Catherine Beaumont. I'm tagging them in the discussion so they show up for the managers of those profiles as well and appear in the profile's discussion tab.
I've put the question in over at WikiTree and we'll see if anyone else responds. If we get no clarity, I'll disconnect them. We can reference the speculation in the About section if we want.
Also tagging manager Laurie Anne LeMay as she appears to have done some research on this.
Thanks. Of course I'd like it to be true cause I'd like to have a known line linked to nobility but at the same time if it's not it should probably be disconnected. Also I want to say although it isn't listed on here I am a direct descendant. I just don't really bother anymore to update my tree here especially my French candian lines because of problems such as the jean guyon one, but I still use it as hints for things such as this and hope to fix some problems and maybe someday I will update it. Are you also a descendant?
Ho to Jeff and Ryan, Marie Gaschet was married to François Lemay who was my 9 or 10 grand-father. I never found the parents of Alexis Poudrier dit Lemay who was married to Françoise Madran but no one yet has found the baptism paper nor the wedding certificat, therefore we can't proove that he is the son of Jean Louis Lemay and Charlotte Marchildon ?? I contacted the «Lemay association« here in Québec but even if they do not have such document they keep saying that he is the son of Louis Lemay and Charlotte Marchildon... would you have any leads or info on this ? I have been searching for over 30 years.
Regards, Adrien
Ok Ryan, here is my ancestor, My mom Irène Poudrier dit Lemay b, sept 29 1916, her father: Adelard Poudrier dit Lemay b.feb 23 1881 Chertsey PQ Canada, his father:Edmond Poudrier dit Lemay b.feb 10 1850 Chertsey PQ Canada, his father: Joseph Lemay b. april 2 1818 St-Jacques l'Achigan, his father : ALEXIS LEMAY b no records found but around 1780 married (no record found) around 1814 to Françoise Madran, children (records found) Solomé b.sept 03 1815 at St-Luc St-John Island PQ, and many more. So they (Association of LEMAY in Canada) reports that his was the son of Jean Louis Lemay b. dec 12 1750 in Lotbiniere PQ. and his first wife Marie Charlotte Marchildon married august 22 1774 in Batiscan PQ...strangely like I mentionned no one has found record of either birth or marriage... If any of you have info on this ALEXIS please let me know.
TKS
Tks Jeff, like I mentionned before, this is what I wrote, there is no proof of the birth and the parents of this Alexis,,that's what I wrote in 2008 believing what the «Association of Lemay in America» but since then no ones can confirm that Alexis is the son of Jean Louis Lemay and Marie Charlotte Marchildon, like I did in 2008 WE all thought that this was right... ,,, will continue my research... Tks again
Following up on this thread...question around the source of Marie Gaschet being the daughter of Sir Thomas de Beaumont, of Stoughton Grange (Sir Thomas). Private User, were you able to learn anything from WikiTree? It appears that Marie Gaschet is my 11th great-grandmother and the only DNA connections I've found here are linked through her and then Sir Thomas. Thank you!
