Sun Surname derived from Beasoleil

Classification: Lookup
Surnames: Sun, Beausoleil
Hi,

My great Grandfather is named Archibald Joseph Sun. He was born in 1887 in Detroit. He died in Detroit in 1963. I really cannot find information on his parents.

As a child, I heard from family members that our Sun family line derived from French Canadians whose surnames were "Beausoleil" (meaning beautiful sun in French) which was shortened to simply Sun when entering to the US.

I'm thinking Archie's parents were Beauseleils, but I cannot be sure.

Does anyone have information on Archibald Joseph Sun who married Rose Agnes Gillespie?
