"After several years of preparation, Nicolas could dream of starting a family. Marriageable girls were exceedingly rare. Near la Riviere aux Chiens lived a worthy family, that of Robert Drouin and Marie Chapelier. Nicolas courted Marie. The young girl had been baptized at Trois Rivieres on 18 September 1650. On 27 September 1662, notary Claude Auber went to the Drouin home to sign Nicolas and Marie's marriage contract... on Wednesday, 28 November, the nuptial blessing was given by Father Thomas Morel at the church of Chateau-Richer. Francois Belanger signed as witness with his initials."
