! Dictionary of Canadian Biography online1741-1770 (Volume III)GASTINEAU DUPLESSIS, JEAN-BAPTISTE, ?voyageur-associate,? fur-trader, militia officer, merchant; b.1671 in the Trois-Rivi?res region, son of Nicolas Gastineau Duplessis and Marie Crevier; buried 9 Feb. 1750 at Trois-Rivi?res. Between 1694 and 1702 Jean-Baptiste Gastineau Duplessis went on several trading expeditions to the west as a ?voyageur-associate.? On 9 June 1694Daniel Greysolon* Dulhut hired him and some other men to go on a trading expedition to Michilimackinac. In 1701 he went to Detroit with his younger brother Louis and some 40 men, all of whom had been hired in theking?s name byIntendant Jean Bochart * de Champigny. The following year Gastineau Duplessis and his brother were employed by the Compagnie dela Colonie to go to Detroit with an expedition that was fully as largeas the preceding one. After these voyages Jean-Baptiste GastineauDuplessis settled at Trois-Rivi?res where, it seems, he became lieutenant of the militia. We do not know at what moment he went into business, but around 1730 he entered into partnership withFran?ois-?tienne Cugnetto try to introduce buffalo into Canada; this enterprise was not, however, successful. Some years later Gastineau Duplessis had new businessdealings with Cugnet, who in 1736 had become the chief shareholder in the Saint-Maurice ironworks company. Gastineau Duplessis furnished the ironworks with supplies valued at 7,071 livres 2 sols 6 deniers. He hadtrouble, however, in obtaining payment and, when Cugnet?s business began to fail, had to present a petition to Intendant Hocquart*in June 1741. In 1750, shortly after Gastineau Duplessis?s death, his wife encountered the same difficulties: this time Cugnet was sentenced in an ordinance from Intendant Bigot* dated 1 April to pay 2,722 livres 3 sols to Mme Gastineau Duplessis for the goods she had sold to the employees of the ironworks. On 19 Nov. 1711 Jean-Baptiste Gastineau Duplessis had married Charlotte Le Boulanger at Cap-de-la-Madeleine. Three childrenwere born of this marriage, including a daughter, Marie-Joseph, who in1749 married Pierre-Fran?ois Olivier* deV?zin.Roland-J. AugerAN, Col.,C11A, 53, ff.228?30.

! Dictionary of Canadian Biography online1000-1700 (Volume I)DUQUET DE LA CHESNAYE, PIERRE, explorer, royal notary, attorney-general, seigneurial judge, seigneur; b. 14 Jan. 1643 in Quebec; d. 13 Oct. 1687 in Quebec. Son of Denis Duquet and Catherine Gauthier, Pierre was one of the first pupils of the Jesuit college of Quebec. The Journal des J?suites stresses on different occasions the role that he played in the musical portion ofthe religious ceremonies. Shortly after leaving the college, Duquet, at the age of 20, bought the registry of the notary Guillaume Audouart, whom he succeeded as royal notary. His commission, dated 31 Oct. 1663, made him the first Canadian-born notary. At this time Duquet had only just returned from an expedition, directed by Guillaume Couture*, which had taken him during the summer a little beyond Lake Nemiskau, about a hundred miles from Rupert River. This was the second attemptbythe French to reach Hudson Bay by land. Like most of the notaries of his period, Duquet had a well-filled career: he was often given power of attorney by litigants, and in addition he was commissioned to carry out several inquiries into irregularities in the liquor traffic. Inthe autumn of 1666 he went with the Carignan-Sali?res regiment into Iroquois territory and signed on 17 October the Proc?s verbal de la prisede possession des forts d?Agni?. Deputy attorney-general (1675?1681), attorney-general (1681?1686), seigneurial judge of Notre-Dame-des-Anges, of the ?le d?Orl?ans and of Orsainville, he was moreover the owner ofseveral properties at Quebec and L?vis and of two seigneuries granted to him in 1672 and 1675. His multifarious occupations prevented him however from giving the desired attention to his notarial acts, in which are to be found many errors and omissions. His registry, which is nevertheless very interesting, is preserved in the Judicial Archives of Quebec. On 25 August 1666 Duquet had married at Quebec Anne Lamarre, who came originally from the parish of Saint-Sulpice in Paris.Andr? VachonAJQ, Greffe de Pierre Duquet, 1663?84; Ins. Pr?v.

! Dictionary of Canadian Biography online1000-1700 (Volume I)H?BERT, LOUIS, apothecary, first officer of justice in New France, first Canadian settler to support himself from the soil,m. Marie Rollet; b. Paris 1575?; d. Quebec,January 1627. According to his descendant, Couillard Despr?s, he was the son of a Louis H?bert who was apothecary at the court of Catherine de M?dicis. Documents more recently discovered in Paris indicate that his father was Nicolas H?bert, an apothecary, and that Louis was born in the Mortier d?Or, a house near the Louvre. The niece of Nicolas H?bert?s wife married Jean de Biencourt de Poutrincourt, in 1590. This relationship would explain Louis H?bert?s interest in the early settlements in Acadia and his presence in Du Gua de Monts?s expedition. Lescarbot, in Port-Royal (Annapolis Royal, N.S.) in 1606, speaks with respect of his skill in healing and his pleasurein cultivating the soil, and, on his map of that region, indicates an island and a river named forH?bert. In the summer of 1606 H?bert sailed with Champlain and Poutrincourt along the coast to the southwest, seeking other sites suitable forsettlement. Poutrincourt and H?bert were so attracted by what is now Gloucester, Mass., that they planted a clearingthere to test the soil?s fertility. Both hoped to bring their families to settle in the New World. On this voyage H?bert showedthat, though intent on peaceful pursuits, he could be counted on for quick and courageous action in an emergency.With Champlain, Poutrincourt and several others, he leaped from the ship into a small boat, unclothed, in the middle of the night, in response to frantic cries from some foolhardy men who, having defied orders and remained on shore, were beingattacked by Indians. The Jonas, arriving from France in June 1607, brought the unwelcome news that, because ofthe cancellationof de Monts?s concessions, the company must returnto France. In 1610, H?bert was again in Port-Royal, with the group whom Poutrincourt hoped to establish there. As apothecary, he treated bothFrench and Indian patients. Apparently meals as well as medicine received his consideration; he preparedand administered both to chief Membertou in his last illness. He was in charge of the settlement when, in 1613, R?ne Le Coq de La Saussaye came with the Marquise de Guercheville?scolonists, withdrew the two Jesuit fathers from Port Royal, and sailedaway to start a new settlement elsewhere. The capture of this expedition at ?le des Monts Deserts by the English that same summer was followedby their destruction of Port-Royal (November 1613), and once more H?bert was forced to return to France. In the winter of 1616?17 he renewed acquaintance with Champlain who was in Paris seeking support for his colony at Quebec. This post, having survived for nineyears,probably seemed to H?bert a safe place for settlers, especially as Champlain obtainedfor him a favourable contract from the fur-trading company in control of the St. Lawrence region. Relying on these promises ? 200 crownsa year for his services as apothecary, and food and shelter for his family while gettingland cleared ? H?bert sold his house and garden in Paris and took his wife Marie Rollet and three children, Anne, Guillemette, and Guillaume, to Honfleur ready to embark.There he discovered that the company had no intention of honouring itsagreement. The besthe could obtain was a new contract, halving his salary and his land grant and stipulating that his family and his servant should be at the serviceofthecompany without pay. Having no alternative, he accepted and sailed with his family 11 March 1617.In Quebec hisapothecary?s skill and his small store of grain were a godsend to the sick and starving winterers. In spite of the company?sdemands on his and his servant?s time, he succeeded in clearing and planting some land. Champlain, on his brief visit of 1618, found cultivated land ?filled with fine grain? and gardens in which flourished a variety of vegetables, For many years H?bert was theonly man besides Champlain himself who took any interest in cultivating land. The tradingcompany did their utmost to discourage him. Both Champlain and Sagard say that the unlawful restrictions they imposed upon him and upon the disposal of his products prevented him from enjoying the fruits of his labours. When in 1620 Champlainreturned from France with (nominally) full authority over the colony, he gave H?bert responsibility in the administration of justiceby appointing him king?s attorney. In this capacity he signed the colony?s petition to the king in 1621. H?bert enjoyedthe confidence alsoofthe Indians, whom he, in contrast to many of his contemporaries, considered as intelligent human beings lacking only education. Many instances bear witness to their respect and affection for him. There is some question of trade relations with Guillaume de Ca?n, but in view of the fact that the surname H?bert isa very common one, this maybe a case of mistaken identity. In 1622 he petitioned the viceroy for a title to his land and on 4 Feb. 1623 received the grantguaranteeing him possession. Known later as the fief Sault-au-Matelot, the land included sites at present occupied by the Basilica, the seminary, and H?bert and Couillard streets. This title was ratified on 28 Feb. 1626 by the succeeding viceroy and some acres alongtheSt.Charles ? the fief Saint-Joseph, later known as fief de Lespinay ? were added, both holdings to be enjoyed?en fief noble.? H?bert hadachieved his cherished ambition: he had brought under his control enough of the wild land of the New World to support himself and his family in independence. The meadows along the St.Charles afforded pasture for cattle; on the higher ground he had grain fields, vegetable gardens, and an orchard planted with apple trees brought fromNormandy.All this hadbeenachieved in spite of the company?s opposition. Moreover,it hadbeen accomplished with hand tools only, not even a plough. (It was not until a year after the death of H?bert, that land was worked with plough and Oxen and agricultureon a largerscale couldbegin.) The winter of 1626 he had a fall onthe ice which proved fatal. He was buried in the Recollet cemetery on 25 Jan. 1627. In 1678 his bones still in their cedar coffin, were transferred to the vault of the newly erected Recollet chapel and with those of Brother Pacifique Duplessis were the first to rest there.Ethel M. G. BennettH?bert is mentioned in the following works of his contemporaries: Champlain, Works (Biggar), passim. JR (Thwaites), passim.

Le Clercq, while not strictly a contemporary, is near enough to the period to have gathered first-hand information and to have talked with H?bert?s daughter. Hegivesinformation about the family in First establishment of the faith (Shea), I,164?67, 281. Documents concerning company agreements, land grants, etc., are cited in Biggar, Early trading companies and in Azarie Couillard Despr?s, La premi?re famille fran?aise au Canada andLouis H?bert: premier colon canadien et sa famille (Lille, Paris, Bruges, 1913; Montr?al, 1918).

! Dictionary of Canadian Biography Online1000-1700 (Volume I)LETARDIF, OLIVIER, interpreter, head clerk of the Compagnie des Cent-Associ?s, judge of the court of the seigneury of Beaupr?; b. c. 1604 in Brittany, in the diocese of Saint-Brieuc, d. 1665 at Ch?teau-Richer. Letardif was at Quebecfrom at least 1621 on, since he signed the report of the meeting of leading citizens in that year; his presence is then noted from time to time until 1629. By that date he was an assistant clerk for the de Ca?ns;?experienced? in the Montagnais, Algonkian, and Huron languages, he served also as an interpreter. In July 1629, acting on behalf of Fran?ois Grav? Du Pont, who was ill, he handed over the keys of the Habitation to Lewis Kirke. We find him inQuebec again in 1633, promoted to be head clerk of the Cent-Associ?s, and fulfilling the functions of interpreteror witness as required. It was at this period that Letardif collaborated in the missionary effort: he supported the Jesuits andacted as godfather to Indians; he even administered baptism and, following Champlain?s example, adopted three young Indians. In May 1637 he received, jointly with Jean Nicollet (who shortlythereafter became his brother-in-law),the tract called Belleborne on the outskirts of Quebec (a commoner?s grant of 160 acres). In April 1646 he acquired one-eighth of the seigneury of Beaupr?. On becoming a member of the Compagnie de Beaupr?, with the title ?general and special procurator,?hemade a score of grants in the years 1650 and 1651. Then in 1653 Letardif gave up his Belleborne property, which was to become the castellany of Coulonge, and obtained land at Ch?teau-Richer, wherehe settled. From this time onward, until 1659, it would appear that he exercised the functions of seigneurial judge of Beaupr?; his ?premature senility? apparently caused him to neglect his duties.On 13 April 1662 he sold his fief in the seigneuryof Beaupr?. This former colleague of the de Ca?ns, of Grav? Du Pont, of Champlain,and of the Jesuit Paul Le Jeune died at Ch?teau-Richer in January1665, and was buried there on the 28th of that month. Letardif?s first wife, whom he married on 3 Nov. 1637, was 13-year-old Louise Couillard, daughter of Guillaume Couillard. Left a widower in November 1641, he married Barbe Esmard, widow of Gilles Michel and sister-in-law of Zacharie Cloutier, at La Rochelle on 16 May 1648. Only one childisknownto have been born of the first marriage; three more followed from the second.

Pr?vost?s presence at Quebec is referred to in the documents of the notary Piraube as early as the year 1639. On 3 Nov. 1644, hemarried, at Quebec, Marie-Olivier-Sylvestre Manitouabeouich. This is the first marriage between a Frenchman and an Indian mentioned in Canadian historical records. The young bride had been given by her parents to the interpreter Olivier Letardif, who had been her godfather and had then had her brought up as a French girl in the home of Sieur Guillaume Hubou. From the time of his marriage until his death, we find Martin Pr?vost settled at Beauport as an ?habitant,? or farmer,which did not prevent himfrom having a piece of land and a house at Quebec in 1667. He was marrieda second time in1665, to Marie d?Abancourt, the widow of Jean Jollyet and of Gefroy Guillot. Pr?vost had had at least nine children by his first wife. Towards the end ofhis life, Pr?vost signed his name ?Provost.? His descendants have adopted one or other of the two spellings.Honorius ProvostJR (Thwaites), IX, 103; XI, 93.

Dictionary of Canadian Biography online1701-1740 (Volume II)BOURG, ABRAHAM, deputy representing Upper Cobequid, Nova Scotia, 1720?26; b. at Port-Royal (Annapolis Royal, N.S.) 1662, son of Antoine Bourg and Antoinette Landry; married in 1683 Marie Brun, daughter of Vincent and Marie Breaux; date of death unknown. Abraham Bourg was one of the deputies chosen by the Nova Scotia Council to represent the Acadian districts in 1720, under the governorship of Richard Philipps*. He was apparently released from his duties in 1726 at his own request, because of lameness and infirmity. On 16 Sept. 1727 he, Francis Richards, and the deputies CharlesLandry and Guillaume Bourgeois refused to take the oath of allegiance to George II. Lieutenant-Governor Lawrence Armstrong maintained, moreover,that they had assembled the inhabitants a day earlier than they had been ordered. Armstrong charged that ?instead of persuading them to their duty by solid arguments of which they were not incapable they [the deputies] frightened them . . . by representing the oath so strong and binding that neither they nor their children should ever shake off the yoke.? For their alleged opposition they were committed to prison. It was ordered that Bourg, however, ?in consideration of his great age,? should be allowed to leave the province as soon as possible, but without his goods. As the others were released after a short time, it appears unlikely that Abraham Bourg actually left. An oath of 1730 bears asignature which may be his. It is not known when Bourg died, but it may have been after 13 April 1736, when Marie Brun?s burial record identifies her as the wife (not widow)ofAbraham Bourg.Maud HodyArchives of the Bishop?s House, Yarmouth, N.S., Registre de bapt?mes, mariages, et s?pultures pour la paroisse Saint-Jean-Baptiste ?

! Dictionary of Canadian Biography Online1701-1740 (Volume II)BROSSARD, URBAIN, master mason, son of Mathurin Brossard and Michelle Bidaut; b. 1633 or 1634 at La Fl?che, province of Anjou; buried 10 April 1710 at Montreal. Brossard came to Ville-Marie with the contingent of 1653. He had been engaged as a mason and settler and applied himself all his life to building and farming. His first undertaking dates from 30 Nov. 1658,when he agreed to start the following May to build a house for Rapha?l-Lambert Closse*. In 1660 Fran?ois Bailly* took him into partnership for three years. Six years later, in association with Michel Bouvier hebuilt a house for Pierre Chauvin.In 1672, with Gilles Devennes and Bouvier, he erected a vast house at Lachine for Jean Milot, a maker of edge-tools and merchant from Montreal. At the top of the contract a sketchsigned by Brossard (his partners could notwrite) shows the lay-out of thisbuilding. It measured 50 feet by 25, had a pavilion roof, and comprised a ground floor and two upper storeys, two chimneys, a forge, a well, and an outside oven. In 1676Brossard, with the same two partners, built a house for Daniel GreysolonDulhut,and in 1680, with Bouvier alone, a house for Philippe Dufresnoy Carion. The next ten years aremarked only by works of secondary importance: foundations, half-timbered field-stone gables and attics, chimneys and fireplaces. Then camea seriesof important works: in 1690, in partnership with Michel Dubuc,a house for the merchant Claude Pothier; in 1692 houses for Pierre Legardeur* de Repentigny and Claude Dudevoir, the first in association with ?tienne Campot, the other with Jean Mars;in 1695 an extensive enlargement to Jean-Vincent Philippede Hautmesnil?s house; finally, in 1704, in collaboration with Jean Deslandes, a mill on the seigneury of Pierre de Saint-Ours. Brossard was a good mason and knew how to cut stone;on occasionhe even acted as the supplier of stone and quarryman. His contracts inform us of the methods of work and the building practices of histime. From them we see that worksweregenerally carried out by masons in partnership, with joint responsibility,andnot by a single contractor. These masons generally engaged only ?their labour and their tools,? and as there were a score of them in and around Montreal, theyfeltno need to train apprentices. The use of cut stone was rare; most oftenpeople were content with ?boulders or field-stones.? Finally, the frequency of half-timbered field-stone construction must be noted, an ancient building method whichwas to continue in use into the following century. In 1660 Brossard hadmarried Urbaine, theonlydaughter of S?bastien Hodiau, who also came originally from La Fl?che. Urbaine died in 1681, after bearing him eight children, among them Catherine,who married the mason Jean Sareau, and Madeleine, who married the maker of edge-toolsFran?ois Campot,the son of the mason ?tienne Campot.Jules BazinAJM, Greffe d?Antoine Adh?mar; Greffe de B?nigne Basset; Greffe d?Hilaire Bourgine; Greffe de Claude Maugue; Greffe de Pierre Raimbault.

! Dictionary of Canadian Biography OnlineCUILLERIER, REN?, indentured employee of the H?tel-Dieu of Montreal,settler; b. c. 1639, probably at V?ron, in the diocese of Angers, son of Julien Cuillerier and Julienne Faifeu; d. c. 1712 at Montreal.Ren? Cuillerier arrived in New France on 7 Sept. 1659. On 8 June 1659, at La Rochelle, he had signed before the notary A. Demontreau an undertakingwith Sister Judith Moreau* de Br?soles, the superior of the H?tel-Dieu of Montreal. By this contract he became a servant at the hospital in Ville-Marie for an annual salary of 75 livres. By the autumn he was at Montreal, and on 25 Oct. 1661, with some settlers assisted by members of the garrison and led by Abb? Guillaume Vignal*, Cuillerier went to ?le de la Pierre, in the St Lawrence, to quarry materials with which to complete the building of the first seminary at Montreal. He had cause torueit, for the Iroquois were roaming the neighbourhood. The latter attacked the workers, killed some of them, wounded others, and captured Vignal, Claude de Brigeac*, Cuillerier, and Jacques Dufresne.Cuillerier and Brigeac were carried off into captivity among the Oneidas. They were subjected to a beating and Cuillerier had his nails torn out. The Indiansthen decided to burn the two Frenchmen. Death was first meted out to Brigeac, but Cuillerier was saved by an Indian woman who asked to adopt him ?in order that he might take the place of her brother.?During his captivity, which lasted 19 months, Cuillerier met other fellow-sufferers: Michel Messier, dit Saint-Michel, and Urbain Tessier, dit Lavigne. Inthe spring of 1663 Cuilleriertook advantage of a hunting trip with theOneidas, who had been joined by some Mohawks and captive Frenchmen, toflee in the direction of New Holland. He went to Fort Orange, whence he made his way to Boston, and finally reached Quebec.Cuillerier wasbackinMontreal at the end of the summer, and resumed his service with theReligious Hospitallers of the H?tel-Dieu. On 20 May 1665 he settled onMontreal Island, having obtained from the Sulpicians a land grant of 45 acres. This land was to formpart of theVerdun fief, which was granted to him in 1671. He took part in the founding of the parish of Lachineand in 1675 became its first churchwarden. The following year his fortified house received the name Fort Cuillerier. At the time ofthe1681 census hehad 32 acres under cultivation and owned 6 muskets, one pistol,and 6 head of cattle.On 22 March 1712 Cuillerier, who had been ill forsome time, made his will in the presence of Louis-Michel de Vilermaula*, parish priest of Lachine. His last willandtestament was deposited in Jean-Baptiste Adh?mar*?s registry on 26 Jan. 1716. Even if the date of his death is unknown to us, a notarial act of 27 Jan.1718, signed before the notary Adh?mar and deposited in Michel Lepallieur?s registry, indicatesthat Madame Lucault had ?been the widow of her said husband for morethan five years.?On 13 April 1665, in the chapel of the H?tel-Dieu of Montreal, Ren? Cuillerier had married Marie Lucault, daughter of L?onard Barbeau, dit Lucault,and of BarbePoisson.

At 20, Cuillerier emigrated from Anjou to Montrealasan indentured servant; two years later, in the fall of 1661, Mohawk and Oneidaraiders carried him off to Iroquoia. Adopted by an Oneida woman, Cuillerier laterescaped to seek refuge among the Dutch and subsequently made his way back to Canada.In Brand?o?s reconstruction of events, shortly after his return the Sulpiciansasked the young manto give an account of hisexperiences among the Oneidas. Twodocuments allegedly resulted. The first, a captivity narrative, was forwarded totheHistoire sociale ? Social History, vol. XXXVIII, no 75 (mai-May 2005)Comptes rendus / Book Reviews 125Jesuits for inclusion in theRelation of1665.The second,the Abreg?, remained in thepossession of the Sulpicians who, four years later, would begin a mission to the Iroquoissettlements on the north shore of Lake Ontario (pp. 33?35). As Brand?o freelyconcedes, this hypothesis regarding the text?s genesis,however plausible, lacks firmevidence (pp. 32?33). more certain are the subsequent peregrinations of the text.Nation Iroquoise was without doubt one of the sources used by Antoine-Denis Raudotin his manuscript memoironNorth America (circa 1709), which the Jesuit PierreFran?ois-Xavier Charlevoix in turn consultedfor his Histoire et description g?n?ralede l?Am?rique septentrionale (1744) (pp. 21?25). Sometime before the Revolution,the only extant copyof the Abreg?made its way into thecollection of the Sulpicianmother community in Paris.The transcription of the document appears meticulous and the facing-page translationis intelligent and restrained.Each has its own set of notes: those accompanyingthetranscription focus on the peculiarities of the manuscript itself, while thoseaccompanying the translation explicate the content. The archaisms and lack of punctuationin the transcription will deter all but specialists, who are certain, however, toappreciate the editor?sdedication toaccuracy. Not wishing to impose their owninterpretations upon a number of ambiguous passages in the original or to obscureCuillerier?s occasional efforts to render Iroquois expressions into French, Brand?oandtranslator K. Janet Ritchhave optedfor a literal translation. Thus French famillebecomes English ?family?, even though (as a note explains) the term was evidentlyintended to designate a clan or clan segment (p. 63). A rare exceptionto this policyisthedecision to render French sauvage as?Native? rather than?savage? (p. 130,n. 5).Cuillerier?s report, written in the seventeenth-century equivalent of the ?ethnographicpresent?, favours simple, concrete description and tends overallto belessjudgemental than the writings of missionaries. Many of the conventional ethnographiccategories of the era are invoked (physique, virtues, vices, superstitions,funerals, mental faculties), but the Abreg? stands out for the detail it provides onIroquoiscouncils, a topic that occupies overone-thirdof thetext.Cuillerier makesclear that Iroquois women spoke in council and initiated mourning wars (pp. 62, 66,74?76), anticipating the Jesuit Joseph-Fran?ois Lafitau?s remarks by more than ahalf-century. Little of the author?s personalitycomesthrough in this short text ?perhaps because, as Brand?o surmises, the unlettered Cuillerier likely dictated hisreport to a Sulpician scribe (p. 34). From an era whose textual legacy to the presentis dominated bythe writings of missionaries,theAbreg?joins the works of Champlain,Radisson, Denys, and de Liette in delivering a lay person?s first-hand impressionsof seventeenth-century Native cultures. Brand?o prefers to emphasize thedocument?ssignificance for providing evidenceof the antiquity ofIroquois politicalarrangements (pp. 36?37), noting that the Abreg? does not so much add to ourknowledge of seventeenth-century Iroquois culture as it confirms the evidencegleaned from other, better-known sources...." | CUILLERIER, Rene (I28440)

! Gabriel Rouleau ditSansoucyBorn: Abt 1613, St-Aubin de Tourouvre, Mortagne, Perche, France 3Marriage: Mathurine Leroux about 16 Aug 1652 in unknown location, Qu?bec, Canada 1 2 3Died: 22 Feb 1673,Ste-Famille, ?le d'Orl?ans, Qu?bec, Canada about age 60 3Buried: 23 Feb 1673, Ste-Famille, ?le d'Orl?ans,Qu?bec, Canada 3 General Notes:[Translated from French to English by Robert Rouleau with babelfish.altavista.digital.com/cgi-bin/translate.Last corrections made by Marc A. Rouleau and Yves Rouleau .]The ancestorGabriel, possibly born in 1613, could be a descendant of Sebasti?n Rouollo (Rouleau) and of Catherine Sauvage who lived in Tourouvre, a smalllocality of the province of Perche inNormandy, in the North-West of France. Tourouvreis located at approximately 150 kilometers west of Paris.Since so few people could read or write at that time, names were often recorded inconsistently - as they soundedto each priest or magistrate. Later, because of all the wars and invasions in this part of France, many records and official documents were lost or destroyed. Hence, the archival information from that time in France, like many other places, is scantily available and not entirely accurate where it exists.We findvery little documentation on the comings and goings of ancestor Gabriel. At the census of 1667, he declared to be 54 years old and at his death in 1673 he was given the age of 60.Pierre Boucher, a person in charge ofthe store in the garrison of the Trois-Rivi?res, recruited colonists and among them, the list showed Gabriel Rouleau, lately arrived fromFrance in 1649. Gabriel had to battle against the Indiansand at the same time had to provide for all kinds of needs for the garrison. It was during this period of skirmishes with the Indians that Gabriel inherited his nickname of "Sanssoucy", or "without worry". It is probably within this garrisonthat Gabriel met his future wife Mathurine LeRoux. Anyway,wefind Gabriel and Mathurine, on August 16, 1652, in front of the notary Audouart, in Qu?bec City, to sign a marriage contract. Gabriel, "usually living in Trois-Rivi?res", promisedto marry Mathurine LeRoux, a16 year old girl, originatingfrom thetown of LaRochelle in France. Gabriel was then 40 years old.Around 1652 Gabriel Rouleau was granted by Robert Giffard, Lord of Beauport, a land where he hastily built a log house. On August 12, 1653, his first born daughter, Louise, was baptizedinQu?becCity. A first boy named Jean is also baptizedin Quebec city on March 14, 1655. The war between rival Indian tribes intensified so much that at the end of August 1656, a fire, presumably caused by hostile Indians, burned down the Rouleau house and the two children of the couple perishedin the flame.A little time after this harsh misfortune, the Rouleau couple decided to establish a new household in Ste-Famille, ?le d' Orl?ans, on a land conceded by Charles de Lauzon, Lord ofCharny-Lirec. Gabriel built a house there and undertook the clearing of the ground. It is in this new residence that was born Jean Rouleau, baptized in Qu?bec City on November 22, 1656. (One does not find any more trace of this Jean after 17 yearsof age). Gabrielfinally received the deed ofhis land on June 26, 1657. The couple Gabriel and Mathurine had many other children:Anne, baptized in Quebec on August 13, 1658, died 4 yearslater.Pierre, baptized in Chateau-Richer on April 5, 1661, deceased around theageof 12.Guillaume, a twin baptized in Ch?teau-Richer, May 3,1662.

In 1773 he removed to Lanesborough, MA, perhaps being for a short time at Sharon, CT., as he was stated to be a resident of that place at the time of his first marriage. In 1778, he went to Rutland VT, lived there until 1784, whe he removed to Saratoga NY and later to Haldimand, Upper Canada, (now in Northumberland County, Ontario), where he thereafter lived.He is listed in the census of 1790 at Stillwater,AlbanyCounty, NY, with two males under sixteen, and three females, and the record of his second married, in 1797, states that he was a resident of that place. An old family record says:Wecameto Canada Apr 17, 1797." He performed much service in theRevolution. After drilling in a company of minute men under Capt. Todd, he was called out in May 1775, and served for seven months in Capt. Samule Sloan's company, Col. John Patterson's REgt., which marched to Boston. During the battle of Bunker Hills he was on guard duty at Charlestown Neck. In January 1776, with his brother Rice, he enlisted in Capt.

! (online translation) Isaac BedardBedard ancestor of AmericaThe name derives from B?dard beadle and is itself a religious allusion.The ancestor Isaac Bedard was born about 1616. He married, March 20,1644, Marie Girard Larochelle. He practiced primarily the job of master carpenter.From 1644 to 1658, they brought seven children to baptism they called: Jacques Fran?ois, Pierre Richard, Isaac, Louis and Anne. Jacques and Louis were the only survivors, the others died in infancy.In 1660, Bedard left for New France, they occupied a location in the Upper Town.By 1663, they left these places, it seems to Quebec, because they had one last little girl, who bore the same name as his mother, May 12, 1664.It is said that Bedard experienced great difficulty in being accepted in the community. For example, two years later, in 1665, they went to Petite-Auvergne, Charlesbourg, asmall village of St-Jerome, in an accommodation of five arpents, theypaid 60 pounds.For 16 years, sometimes farmer and sometimes master carpenter, Isaac Bedard tried to support his family adequately, yet he had several times to resign themselves to seek help for Jesuits to meet basic needsIn the 1681 census, IsaacB?dard, a carpenter and resident of Little Auvergne, had a gun, 4 cattle and 12 acres of land under cultivation.Isaac Bedard was buried January 15, 1689, to 73 years.The Bedard have multiplied so prodigiously,there are currently beyond 30.000 B?dardscattered in all provinces of Canada and several U.S. states.Bedard family provided the Church hundreds of priests and religious who devoted themselves in the countries of Africa, China, South Americaand extreme northern Canada.She also starredinthejudiciary and in politics, in all professions, and in all scientific careers and business.This brave family can claim a part of building the French Canadian nationality.Source: The Genealogy Centre francophone d'Am?rique | BEDARD, Isaac (I11917)

! Israel HoneywellIsrael Honeywell is the direct ancestor of most of today?s American Honeywells. Born about 1654-5, he was the third child of Roger and Bridget Hunnewell.It is known that hefought in the King Philip?s War (1675-76). The earliest known record of him was found in a casualty list which was dated July 4, 1677 and is preserved in the Massachusetts Archives. This mention of him, as a resident of Ipswich, Massachusetts or theWestward, as it was then called, states that he had been wounded in the leg and shoulder at the Eastward (Maine). It is quite possible that he saw much action, fighting the Indians during the troublesome period, probably with his oldest brother,Richard (who was featured in the last issue of Honeywell Heritage, V2, N1).It is known that prior to being injured, he worked as a farmer or a farm hand on Hog Island in the Ipswich River. In 1678 he was listed under the incorrect name of Isaac asa commoner (in the middle class) at Ipswich. He may have gotten intosome kind of trouble around 1680, as he declared in that year under the familygovernment of Nathaniel Arriel Emerson of Ipswich. He was later released from his bond for good behavior in September, 1681, with no one appearing to have objected, and no further mention of the particulars.It seems that Israel continued to reside around Ipswich for a while. At sometime during the 1680s he married Mary Spofford, the daughter of John and Elizabeth (Scott) Spofford from the neighboring town of Rowley. No records of the date of their marriage can be found, but around 1685-6 they had their first child, a daughter named after her mother, Mary.No record has been found pertaining to the period of years between 1680 and 1694. All that is known is that during this period, Israel and Mary hadtwo sons, Israel born in 1687 and Richard who was born around 1689. In1692 his brothers wereunable to locate him over the sale of their father?s land at Winter Harbor, Maine, and we can only presume that they had moved away by then.In ca. 1693, they settled in the town of Westchester (now in the Bronx) in then English New York, a region to which many from New England had emigrated.In any event, the first known of them being there is on a deed on October 23, 1694 when they purchased a piece of property.Shortly thereafter, Israel and Mary had their third son, Samuel, who was born on January 8, 1695. In the years to follow,by Royal Charter, Israel became a prominent member of the Westchester First Common Council. In 1698 he took an oath of allegiance to King William of England, and from that time on it seems that he added the prefix Sr.It isapparent that Israel prospered during this period of his life, as he was known to have owned, bought and sold much land surrounding the area.It is also known that he had two servants living in his household by the names of John and Charity Hessones, along with a black slave they called Jake. Sarah, their last child and second daughter was born about 1699-1700, though no record has been found to give an exact date.Israel died at Westchester sometime around 1719 and was presumed to have been buried at St. Peter?s (Episcopal) Church, although his grave is not marked. His wife, Mary, ?shortly died.?In this church there is a fine bronze tablet in tribute to Israel Honeywell and his son, grandson, and great grandson, who were all of the same name. It was placed therein 1902 by some of his descendants. The inscription on the tablet giveshis dates as (1660-1720), and describes him as "By Royal Charter Member of the First Common Council...," and of North Devon, England, who came to Westchester in 1693.Their first daughter, Mary, went on to marry John Baxter around the year 1705, also of Westchester. They continued to live there, ending up with seven children, John, Roger, Charity, Oliver, Israel, Peracholus, and Stephen. Her father, Israel, continued to be an influence throughout their lives, as records show him conveying a slave girlto her in 1708 and in 1712 signing a bond with John, her husband.Theirfirst son, Israel, married around 1712 Dorothy Pell, the daughter of Thomas and Dorothy (Ward) Pell. They had five children, Israel, Anne, Phebe, Gilead, and Stephen. Dorothy died on February 11, 1758, and Israelfollowed on November 11, 1762 at the age of seventy-five.Richard, Israel?s second son, grew up and lived in Westchester for the early part ofhis life. He married Mary ___. Richard and Mary are known to have two children, David, who was born sometime before 1730, and a daughter for whom we have noname.Israel?s third son, Samuel, apparently grew up in Westchester. It appears that he owned and lived on a farm at Kings Road which he sold to his older brother Israel on March 15, 1719/20. From there he moved to Rye, New York, where he lived for a year or so. On March 15, 1721 he purchased some 300 acres at Bidford wherehis brother Richard lived. He lived there for the remainder of his long life, when he died in 1785 at the age of ninty. He seems to have been fairly wealthy, as heacquired a considerable amount of land. He married his wife, Phebe___, and they hadone known child, Enoch.Little is known of Israel?s youngest daughter, Sarah. In 1729, as Sarah Honeywell and yet unmarried, she received certain household property of her deceased father and mother and from her "father-in-law" Josiah Hunt (The term father-in-law in those days was interchangeable with stepfather, and this is the basis for the preconception that her mother had remarried after Israel?s death).

! ChroniclesFirst episodeRobert Caron and his descendantsn June 4, 1634, RobertCaron arrived in New France. He disembarked from one of the four shipsthat belonged to the Cheffault-RozeeCompany, based in Rouen. According to the Intendant, Jean Talon, he traveled with Zacharie Cloutier, carpenter, Robert Giffard, doctor, No?l Langlois, Charles L?Allemant, Jesuit, Jean Bourdon, engineer, and, of course, many others.After completingtwo years with the Company, he opted not to renew his contract and decided to set down roots in the colony. From Pierre Le Gardeur de Repentigny, he obtained a concession at Longue-Pointe, near Sault Montmorency, which he started to clear immediately. The following year, on October25, 1637, he married Marie Crevet a young 16-year-old girl from Normandy, the daughter of Pierre Crevet and Marguerite Lemercier, of B?nouville, near Caen. Seven children were born fromthat union: Marie, Jean-Baptiste, Robert, Catherine, Joseph, Pierre and Aym?e.Since the Iroquois constantly harassed the colonists, Robert decided to leave his land in Longue-Pointe, which he later sold to Guillaume Couillard, and moved to C?teau Sainte-Genevi?ve. There, he undertook to clear this new concession and afew years later he was given ownership of the property. In 1654, he once again sold his property and moved to C?te de Beaupr?, approximately 1 kilometer to the eastof the current Basilique Sainte-Anne, in Beaupr?. Today, the descendants of Mr. Thomas Simard live in the house erected on the foundations of Robert Caron?s home, which was destroyed by fire.Robert died prematurely in 1656, at the H?tel-DieuinQuebec City, at the age of 44. The causes of hisdeath remain relatively obscure. Did he die as a result of an injury suffered in combat with the Amerindians? After Robert died, Marie Crevet moved to Ch?teau-Richer. After remaining a widow for ten years, she married No?l Langlois, the widower ofFran?oise Garnier, who had arrived on the same ship as Robert in 1634. He died in 1684, at the age of 80. Following that, Marie Crevet livedin Baie St-Paul where she died at the age of 85.Robert and Marie founded one of the families with themostdescendants in North America. Theirdescendants can be found in all of the provinces of Canada and in a large number of American states. There are more than 30,000 Carons listedin telephone books throughout North America. In Quebec, the Caronname is associated with more than 150 place names. These facts testify to thefamily?s sense of initiative and discovery.The Association des Familles Caron d?Am?rique was officially founded on May 26, 1984. It now has 750 members, including 425 who are membersfor life. The Association organizes an annual get-together, which is held at a different location each year. Its bulletin, which was named in keeping with the Associations? motto, Tenir et servir (?Hold and Serve?), is published four times a year.It should be noted that the Association was the first family association to publish its genealogical data on the site of the Centre de g?n?alogie francophone d?Am?rique, which can be consulted at: http://www.genealogie.org/famille/caron/caron.htm | CARON, Robert (I21216)

In 1714 Paul signed it allto his brother-in-law EbenezerVarney. It is likely that Ebenezer's wife, Mary Otis wasone of the three girls who were rescued at Conway, NewHampshire after the raid.

It is the second largest in Castillay Le?n in terms ofpopulation (166,000) and industry. Burgos centrally located half-way between Madrid and the northern coast and half-way between the eastern and western coasts.Although the city itselfhas itsorigins in the year 884 A.D.,the area is full of prehistoric fossils indicating that man has been inhabiting the area since the Neolithic Age (about 4,500 B.C.)! The archeological site of Atapuerca is located about15km from Burgos-Capital.During the eleventh through thirteenth centuries Burgos matured into a medieval city: a place of agriculture, commerce, and urbanization. During this time Burgos became an important city economically, religiously, and politically. The principal product at the time waswool, a highly sought commodity throughout Europe. Religious importance emerged during five centuries (XI-XV) when pilgrimages were important and popular.The pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela (el Camino de Santiago ) broughtpeople from alloverEurope through Burgos.Burgos continued to thrivethrough the next centuries; until the seventeenth century, when it began to decline. The population fell from 12,000 in the late 1500s to 6,000 in the 1630sdue to starvation, disease, andpeople moving out of the city and into the country. This leftBurgos with mostly clergy and poor along with the few remaining artisans. At the end of the 1700s, under the influence of the Enlightenment and Carlos III, Burgos began toslowlyrecover. The city wall wastaken down during this time and the pedestrian street along the Arlanz?n River, el Epsol?n,, was createdThe beginning of the nineteenth century brought the Spanish War of Independence and was an interesting time for Burgos.The citywas occupied from 1808 to 1813 by the French as a strategic hold on their march to Madrid and Portugal. This occupation greatly affected Burgos life. During their retreat, the French destroyed many of the city?s buildings, includingthe near 1,000 year old castle (whichwas modified and/or rebuilt during thattime). In general, the nineteenth century was a time of modernization. The railroad began to expand and an industrial society began to develop.Thisnew developmentgreatly benefited the ideally located Burgos. The population once again began to growandwas accompanied by new commerce.The newly organized Spanish state created province capitals, Burgos being one.This new organization greatly benefited the city. This period is alsomarked by the renovation of the oldest partsof the city and the building of new public buildings including the Teatro Principal.Althoughthe city itself benefited, only aselect few of the people actually thrivedthroughthis time. Most of the population was poor, especially during years that crops failed. Burgos becamea center of military operations during the Revolution and was the first capital of the Franco regime.Everyone livedin hunger until the 1950swhen new businesses and factories began to develop. The major industrial transformation began in the 1960sand is still alive today. Today, Burgosis an important city both historic and modern, urban and rural. It has a richcultural and historical past evident in the magnificent buildings, statues, and people.

It may be as well, therefore,to give Mr. Clark?s reminiscences of them. He writes:?David Purdy located the last lot (No. 42) on the front of Secondtown, east side. He married Miss Abigail Ostrum, whose connections settled in the township ofSidney, not far from Belleville. He had a large family most of whom are still living (in 1844). Two of his youngest sons, Samuel and Joseph, reside on the old farm. The old man is dead, but his widow still survives.?Gilbert, the oldest son of the Purdy family, married Miss AsenithGoldsmith, of Hallowell, who left him. Ruliff, another son, married a widow Gilbert, of Sidney, where he resides, and has become a prominent andwealthy man. David was accidentally shot and killed when a boy by his cousin, John Everett. Samuel married Eliza, a daughter of Samuel Lockwood, and Joseph married Minerva, her sister. John and Jacob married daughters of Jacob Fretts, of Fredericksburgh. Elizabeth married a Mr. Woodward; he died and she married again. Mary married John Abbott; he died and she married William Ellerbeck. Old Mrs. Purdy, mother of these children, has from her youth been troubled at times with aberration of mindand several of the children have been similarly affected.David Purdy?sbrothers, Micajah, Gilbert andSamuel,settled in the township of Kingston. they had large families. Samuel moved to some distant place. Gilbert is still living, he was twice married, and Micajah, who died lately,was married five times, and was the father of twenty-three children, nineofwhom, and his last wife are living. His two first wives were sisters by the name of Sands, of Newburgh, New York state, the third was aMiss Ann Detlor, of Fredericksburgh, the fourth a Miss Embury (niece of the third) and the fifth MissMithebelHolmes, also of Newburgh, N.Y.!Re: GILBERT PURDY b1788 OntarioPosted by: Sam PurdyDate: March 12, 1999 at 09:13:35In Reply to: GILBERT PURDY b1788 OntarioI have some information regarding Gilbert Purdy, in a manuscript compiled byJohn Masten of California approximately 40 years ago. The following information has been largely obtained from Mr. Masten's work.According tothis source, which is somewhat disorganized,the Gilbert Purdy of whomyou seek information was the eldest son of David Purdy, a United Empire Loyalist who settled near Kingston. This David Purdy married Abigail Ostrum and had 7sons and 2 daughters. David Purdy's father wasalso named Gilbert Purdy, and he raised his family of 8 on a farm near Newburgh on the Hudson River in New York state. He joined the British army in 1775 and died on his way to Philadelphia. Thefarm was confiscated by the revolutionaries, and the family arranged to leave for Canada. Abigail Purdy, wife of David Purdy, died January 4, 1852 at the age of 90 years, 2 months and 19 days. We are uncertain of the dates of David Purdy's birth, marriage and death.Gilbert Purdy is supposed to have drawn his land in 1810at age 21. He is believed to have married Hannah Gould about 1817. Prior to this, he was married to a woman named Asenath Goldsmith, of Hallowell Township, on May 1, 1816. This marriage apparently did not last long. The childrenof Gilbert Purdy andHannah Gould are believed to have been James, Richard, Hannah, Roxie, Eleanor and Ira. Mr. Masten's manuscript mentions a Mrs.A. C. Metcalfe of 73 Sherwood Avenue, Toronto 12.Mrs. Metcalfe is said to be a grandaugher of IraWesley Purdy,a son ofGilbert Purdy.H. Pearson Gundy, Chief Librarian of Queen's University at Kingston, wrote a short bulletin called "GilbertPurdy, Pioneer Jack-of-All Trades". As well, his account book, kept intermittentlyfrom 1808 to 1837, is inthe Douglas Library at Queen's University. Thebook is a small octavo of 178 pages. There is also known to be a book called Pioneer Life on the Bay of Quinte which writes up the descendents of Gilbert Purdy, however I have never seen the book and do not know the nameofitsauthor.I have only smatterings of other information regarding Gilbert Purdy, however I do have a wealth of geneological information regarding his brothers and their descendents, particularly his brother John Purdy (married Anna Fretz) who was my grgrgrandfather. My grgrandfather was Samuel Lester Purdy, whom I am named after, my grandfatherwas Walter Palmer Purdy and my father is William Walter Purdy. Please respond if this is any help.
