Noel was baptized at the church dedicated to Saint-Etienne and built in part in the thirteenth century... Noel Morin's mother had died by the time he came to New France."

Notre-Dame-de-Quebec


"We do not know when nor how Noel Morin arrived at Quebec. He made his first official appearance in our national history at the home of notary Martial Piarude, on Tuesday, 27 December 1639. All the important people of the capital gathered to celebrate the signing of Noel's marriage contract, from Jean Bourdon to Jean Jolliet, including Robert Giffard, Guillaume and Louis Couillard, Father Jean Leseur, not to forget their great ladies."

"Why such solemnity? The bride was none other than Helene Desportes, daughter of Pierre and of Francoise Langlois, niece of Abraham Martin. Helene, the first white child born at New France, had been baptized at Quebec on 16 July 1620, according to Rene Jette. She went to France with her parents in 1629 and returned to Canada in 1634. Guillaume Hebert, son of Louis and of Marrie Rollet, married to Helen Desportes on the first of October 1634, had died at Quebec on 23 September 1639, leaving his wife with 3 children, including two who survived: Joseph and Francoise."

"... On Monday, 9 January 1640, the Jesuit Nicolas Adam blessed this union in the presence of the witnesses Nicolas Pivert and Robert Giffard, surgeon and seigneur in New France."
