Norman,

Jean Roy dit Laliiberte, the "dit" usually mean a given name from the army but in this case he suppose to have gotten it because when he got off the boat he cryed out "la liberte" freedom and it stuck to him.  That is also why almost non of his children have use the name and it got lost by the second generation.
