Ancestor's Life Events

Birth "It was at Chatillon-en-Bazois that Paul Benoit was born about 1626. Le Bazois, a tiny region of France, occupied the easter part of the French province of Nivernais... Paul brought the surname of Nivernois to New France and it was replaced by that of Livernois." Thomas J. Laforest Our French-Canadian Ancestors : Volume XVI, Page 47 |

New France "...He signed a commitment for 5 years in the presence of the notary Lafousse, at Lafleche, on 23 March 1653. Because he was a carpenter, he was promised 100 livres as an annual salary. On 20 June, at the port of Saint-Nazairre, in the presence of the notary Belliote, he obtained a salary advance of 123 livres. That same day he boarded the ship Saint-Nicolas. The son of Francois Benot and of Dimanche Chappelain looked for the last time at the shores of his country..." "Could the good ship Saint-Nicolas out of Nantes face the ocean squalls? The fact that the ship was not water-tight, was worm-eaten and rotten, might make a difference... After having traveled 350 leagues at sea, it was necessary to turn back... Only on 20 July did the replacement ship Sainte-Marguerite set sail for the New World... Finally, the contingent reached the port of Quebec on Monday, 22 September 1653." Thomas J. Laforest Our French-Canadian Ancestors : Volume XVI, Page 48 |
