L'Assomption, Québec, Canada - Genealogy
L'Assomption, Québec, Canada
L'Assomption is an off-island suburb of Montreal, in southwestern Quebec, Canada on the L'Assomption River. It is the seat of the Regional County Municipality of L'Assomption. It is located on the outer fringes of the Montreal urban area.
Most of the economy depends on the agricultural industries of the surrounding plains. It is also the cultural center of the region.
This city is also known to be the home town of the thrash metal band Reanimator, as you can hear their singer scream "Merci L'Assomption!" (which means "Thank you L'Assomption) at the end of the song "Black Bones" from their Thrashin' The Neighborhood EP.
L'Assomption is also home to Marie-Annick Lépine, a member of the highly popular néo-traditional Quebec band Les Cowboys Fringants.
In 2002, L'Assomption amalgamated with the parish of Saint-Gérard-Majella.

Article From the Montreal Courant, of Sept. 2. We are informed that one day last week, a Canadian man at L'Assomption, was mowing hay near the river side, when he saw a very large fish near the water's edge; he made a blow at it with his scythe (which was just whetted) and raised it above his head; it appears the handle turned, and coming in contact with his person, it severed his head from his body.

Article A murder of the most barbarous nature was lately committed at L'Assomption under unusual circumstances. Two brothers, Raymond and Oliver Brien dit Dessochers were enamored of and paying their addresses at the same time to the deceased Domithile Perrault. Oliver, however, soon discovered that his brother Raymond was the favored swain, and under the influence of jealousy notified his brother, that if he married the young lady, he would not long enjoy her society. The marriage took place, and the brother has unfortunately carried his horrible threat into execution. During the evening between Saturday and Sunday he entered in the chamber of his brother, and destroyed his sister-in-law by striking her several blows on the head with an axe. The husband also received a blow from the axe on his arm. The murdere has been committed to the gaol [sic] of this city. A coroner's inquest was held on the body of the deceased, and a verdict returned that she came to her death by the blows of an axe inflicted up on her by a man suspected to be the prisoner now in custody. - Montreal Gazette.
