Discovering the Ancestry of Mathurin CHAILLE (CHAYER): Events, Photos & Historical Records
Birth
'Mathurin Chaille was born about 1637 at Sainte-Radegonde-la-Vineuse, today Marsais-Sainte-Radegonde, diocese of Maillezais, in Poitou, arrondissement of Fontenay-le-Comte, in the Vendee...We are unaware of Mathurin Chaille's life before his arrival in New France. He was not educated. A circle with a dot in the middle served as his mark and signature. One day Mathurin decided to improve his fate by trying his luck in America. In what year did the son of Jean Chaille and Jeanne Bouillaut travel up the Saint Lawrence? According to Marcel Trudel, Mathurin appeared here for the first time as witness to a survey on 20 February 1658. Thus, Mathurin was certainly in the colony the preceding summer, perhaps even in 1656.'
