"Myth: Gabriel's wife Genevieve Hayot died in 1713. Reality: Genevieve's mother died Nov 9, 1713. Genevieve lived at least until 1730 and perhaps much longer. Transactions that support this include: 21 Mar 1715, Genevieve attended baptism of Pierre Martin at Charlesbourg. 9 Mar 1718, Genevieve and Jean sold their Charlesbourg farm, Notary Basset dit Deslauriers. 28 July 1723 Genevieve was witness to baptism of Madeleine Berard at Sorel. 24 Jan 1730, notary Delafosse, Genevieve's children assign their inherited rights to a d'Autray farm to Genevieve. On that same 24 Jan 1730 by the same notary, "Genevieve Ayot, habitant, of Ile-St-Ignace, widow of Jean Turcot" sold a portion of land on Ile-St-Ignace. Thus Genevieve was living near or with her son Gabriel fils (junior) and many other relatives that lived at that time on Ile-St-Ignace in the Sorel Parish."

Misc   "(1) A small "breaktrough" about Gabriel's last days comes from a document filed by Notary Barbel on behalf of Gabriel's widow, Genevieve Hayot, dated Dec 12, 1709. In her renunciation of debts, she notes that "her deceased husband having died in the service of deceased Monsieur Hazeur about five years ago." That would be Francois Hazeur who held the lease on the Tadoussac Region. Thus, it seems that Gabriel died while working at a post in the region or while on an expedition there on behalf of Francois Hazeur, and not while on an independent trading expedition. Good additional detail and a confirmation, of sorts, of his last days being in the Tadoussac region. (2) In the same document, Genevieve notes that she owns "a 'mechant' (no-good) habitation located in the seigneury of d'Autray, which they had to abandon as much because the Iroquois killed all of their animals as because of a fire that happened to them." Interesting. Gabriel and his family left d'Autray in 1696, during the troubled years before the Indian peace of 1701. This is the first specific information of Gabriel and his family being a victim of the Iroquois raids. A later survey of 1724 shows that the widow and heirs of Gabriel Berard still own a farm at d'Autray. (3) Gabriel's son, Gabriel fils (b. 1681) was later hired, on Sept 17, 1710, by Joseph Riverin (brother of Denis Riverin who was now living in France), who had acquired a sublease of the Tadoussac Region, to manage the Tadoussac Trading post for 4 years (Notary Chambalon). Riverin, on Sept 20 and Oct 24, also Notary Chambalon, hired workers to help Gabriel jr. at the post. Seems that Gabriel fils (jr.) carried on where his father left off. During those 4 years managing the Tadoussac Post, Gabriel fils also spent much time in Neuville. He took possession of the family Neuville farm in 1711, attended a baptism in 1712, married in 1713 and his 1st child was born in early 1714. All of these transactions, though, were in the fall and winter months, when the post was much less active." Source: http:/boards.ancestry.com/surnames.berard/163.1/mb.ashx

Misc   "The following is my best information on Genevieve Hayot's last years, with the summer of 1731 at Ile-St-Ignace being my estimate of when and where she died. As noted earlier, on Jan 24, 1730, per record filed by Notary Delafosse, Genevieve Ayot [Hayot], habitant, of Ile St-Ignace, widow of Jean Turcote, sold a portion of land at Ile-Ste-Ignace to Jean Ride of Longeuil. Thus Genevieve was then living there on that island with or near her son Gabriel fils and many other relatives. No further details on Genevieve have been found, including where or when she died except it was after Jan 24, 1730 and apparently before Nov 4, 1732 when Notary Delafosse recorded a contract for her son Gabriel fils' remarriage. Genevieve may have perished in a June-July 1731 epidemic on Ile-Ste-Ignace that appears to have taken 5 of her great grandchildren descended from daughter Louise (mid-June to mid-July) followed by 4 of her grandchildren from son Gabriel fils and on July 31st, Gabriel fils' wife Angelique. Gabriel fils' re-marriage contract of 1732 contains no mention of an outstanding inheritance from the possessions of Genevieve. Though not definitive, that may indicate that her estate already had been settled. Furthermore, neither of Gabriel fils' parents are listed (as present, nonpresent or deceased) on his 1732 church marriage record, which would be unusual if either were still alive. In 1731, Genevieve would have been age 73. No record of her death or burial has been found. It may be (a nice speculation, though there is no evidence), that upon Genevieve's death, Gabriel fils and his brother Pierre, who also lived on Ile-St-Ignace, traveled to the Tadoussac region (assuming their father was buried there) and buried her beside her 1st husband of 32 years. That place may have been near the Tadoussac Post or up the Saguenay River at the Chicoutimi Post. The mission at Chicoutimi often was not staffed with a priest and that may explain why neither Gabriel nor Genevieve's burials were recorded if either or both were buried there."
