Spouse(s)/Partner(s) and Child(ren):

Gaspard BOUCHER died 20 May 1662 in Trois-Rivières, Canada, New France .
Jacques Boucher married Françoise Paigné, widow of Robert Jousse, perhaps on 4 July 1582 in Saint-Langis. They had at least two children, Gaspard and Nicolas. Other children listed are possible, but not proven.
On 30 July 1611, Gaspard Boucher represented his parents's heirs (implying that he had at least one living sibling at this date).
Gaspard was born in Montagne (Notre Dame) Perche, France.
He married Dec. 12, 1619 in Mamers, Maine, France.
He arrived in Canada with his wife and four or five of their children in 1634 or 1635, or both years. In 1634, some 30-odd Percheron immigrants had crossed the ocean led by colonizing seigneur Robert Giffard. Gaspard may have been among the group. On their arrival, whenever they actually arrived, they were accommodated by Champlain in the 'habitation'. They soon after established themselves in the Notre-Dame-des-Anges seigneurie where Gaspard was engaged on the Jesuit farm. In March 21, 1646, Gaspard Boucher acquires a 24-arpents farm at Trois-Rivières.
Gaspard passed away on 20 May 1662 in Trois-Rivières, Quebec, Canada in a house fire that also claimed the life of his wife Nicole.
