REFN: 1668
[MinnieEllenLamphere.FTW]
Etienne de Nevers dit Brantigny, the ancestor of numerous
CanadianBoisvert families, spent a little while in Trois Rivieres in 1650
beforesettling permanently in the region of Quebec. He may have made
acommitment to assist Michel Leneuf du Herisson, a seigneur who
neededmanual laborers to work his lands on the outskirtd of
Trois-Rivieres. Etienne soon abandoned that village founded by Laviolette
for Sillerywhere several early pioneers had established themselves. Among
them w ereNicolas Pinel, Thomas Hayot, Nicolas Goupil, Jean Jobin, Gilles
Esnard,Claude Charland dit Francoeur, Pierre Masse, Jean Noel, Jean
Routhier,Jean Pelletier and Mathurin Trut. (Noel and Pelletier are sons
of ourother ancestors) On 1 Oct 1 652 his marriage contract was signed
before notary Godet,followed on the 28th of Oct with the church wedding
in Sillery: "EtienneTennever ( is this his real name ?) and Anne Hayaut."
The witnesses wereRene Mesere, Jacques Archambault and Ch arles Gautier.
He was from the region of La Champagne." Wars made living there
mostdifficult, the distruction of harvests, the burning of Villages,
theepidemics, the shortages of everything, made the rural people flee to
thecities. These we re the reasons which convinced the most intrepid to
go tosee what might be happening elsewhere. This period of general
instabilityin the mother country indirectly helped New France to produce
strong menwhom it needed to populate an empty la nd." So like most of our
ancestors,Etienne took advantage of this situation to cross the Atlantic.
The Iroquois became an ever increasing menace in 1653. The Jesuitshelped
organize the inhabitants of the Saint-Francois-Xavier coast ofSiller y to form a village for better protection against them. "Theydetached 5 pieces of land and promised an area of 50 arpents to bedivided into 18 parcels of two and a half each. Among those receiving aparcel were Etienne and
his brother-in-law Thomas Hayot." They couldlater dispose of their land
if they desired, so the next year Etienneacquired another piece of land
but this time with river frontage. Thisnew lot was in what was commonly
called "the land of the Savages" atSillery . In 1667 he sold this lot,
today-" a goodly number of the presentparishoners from
Saint-Louis-de-France to Sainte-Foye are crowded ontothis lot which lost its rural aspects hardly more than 25 years ago." After more moves in the vacinity , Etienne like many others from thearea, (including ancestors
Boudet, De Nevers and Gauthier) became an eelfisherman. In 1677 he leased a piece of land for 5 years in theSainte-Croix area with fishing rights
on the St Lawrence river from the Ursulines. He probably died during the summer of 1678. Anne married again in Dec toLeonard Dubord.

Joanne Noonan

Joanne Noonan, the widow of East Dover's Charlie Noonan, adopted the village as her home. Born in 1924 in Arlington, Massachusetts, her parents were Edmond Joseph Fitzmyris and Helen O'Connor. She met Charlie in Boston. She was fifty-one when they married, and he was sixty-two.

She told us that Charlie Noonan's family bartered fish and eggs in Lunenburg, for flour, apples. They grew their own vegetables and had domestic animals like pigs and chickens, they also fished. His parents were James Brenton Noonan from East Dover and Loretta Redmond from Shad Bay. His grandparents were James Henry Noonan and Margaret Coolen. A great grandfather was George Noonan who married Liza Morash.

As a youth Charlie played many different sports and also enjoyed entertaining with his father, playing the fiddle together. He attended Ocean Glen School, a one-room schoolhouse. Charlie, an only child, was about ten years old when his family moved to Boston. Joanne notes the strong ties between Nova Scotia and Boston. Lots of people couldn't get jobs in Nova Scotia and went to Boston for work, she recalled.

When asked about changes over the years to the village, she said, "People are not going to let this village change if they can help it.......There's a very strong community spirit here....What happens to one, happens to all."

Charlie was just three years old at the time of the Halifax Explosion and was living for the winter in Halifax where his father and grandfather were working at the sugar refinery. She said he told her that when the explosion hit he had just stooped down to tie his shoe, getting just a little cut on his head, but his grandmother lost the sight in one eye.

Joanne is keenly interested in local history and family trees. She has albums filled with pictures and a great collection of documents relating to the area's history. She says East Dover started in the early 1800s. The oldest house is the Burke house, still standing. She has researched and found out that Charlie's ancestors came in the 1700s from Ireland to St. John's, Newfoundland at a time when the English and French were at war. The men had been conscripted into military service and desertion was a common occurrence. They were known as the Irish Brigade. She continues to research the family's history.

READ: Thomas Laforest's series, Our French-Canadian Ancestors, Vol V. pg227.
Jean-Baptiste SICARD de Carufel, son of Pierre and Marie de FORGUES (FARGUES), descende d from a noble family originating in Haut Languedoc.
By October 1685, Louis XIV, who had been hounding the Huguenots for five years, revoked t he Edict of Nantes and huge waves of Huguenot refugees fled France. Many of the Protestants w ho remained in France converted to Catholicism. Although we know Jean was not Catholic---he r enounced the 'religion pretendue reformee" in 1686---we have not yet determined whether the y oung man -- and his family -- were Protestant, Huguenots or Albigeois Cathares.
At the age of 19, Jean-Baptiste joined the Marine Troops under the command of Capitan [ Écuyer ] Francois-Marie-Renaud d'Avesne des Meloizes. The Company, recruited by the new gover nor, Jacques-René Brisay de Denonville, was integrated into the 500-man detachment that lef t the port of LaRochelle in 1685 aboard "La Diligente". During the Atlantic crossing scurvy a nd typhoid claimed 60 victims. Eighty more soldiers were hospitalised at the Hotel-Dieu -- al ready overcrowed with 300 fever patients -- upon their arrival in Quebec on August 1, 1685. [ In 1685 The population of New France was 10,725 French and 1,538 settled savages.]
After only a few weeks rest, Denonville and his men left for Fort Frontenac (Kingston) . The Governor found the colony in terrible disarray, hundreds of colonists had abandoned the ir land to become coureurs de bois. In addition to the challenge of social reform, the Englis h surrounding the French possessions and Iroquois were ever-present dangers.
The first mention of Jean's presence in New France is the act in the Notre-Dame de Queb ec church register dated 20 January 1686 in which the young nobleman renounced his faith. Acc ording to the "Acte d'Abjuration", Jean SICARD, native of the parish of St. Jacques in the c ity of Castres-d'Albigeois in Haut-Languedoc, a sergent in the regiment of Renaud d'Avesne s des Meloizes recanted from the pretended reformed religion [a fait abjuration de la religio n pretendue reformee] before Jean Baptiste De LaCroix de St-Vallier, Bishop of Quebec. Witne sses were: Jacques deBRISAY de Denonville, Governor, Lieutenant General of the Army, Quebec a nd his wife Catherine Courtin.
On June 13, 1687, at the head of 832 marine troops, more than 900 militiamen and 400 ind igenious allies, Denonville headed up-river resolved to crush the Tsonnontouans who, with arm s furnished by the New York English, were harassing the colony in the southern Lake Ontario/N iagara region. (Fort Denonville was built "on the same side as Fort Conti, which is today th e site of Fort Niagara, USA, opposite Niagara -on-the-Lake.") Before returning to Montreal, G overnor Denonville, left about 100 men under the command of Raymond Blaise des Bergeres d e Rigauville. Scurvy and the Iroquois wiped out all but Blaise and twelve men. [Although no t documented, it is probable that the young Sicard de Carufel took part in the manoeuvres a s Capitan Raymond Blaise was his commanding officer and among the twelve who survived the win ter of 1687-88.] From 1690 to 1720 the fort was abandoned.
Towards the end of 1688, shortly after returning to Montreal, Raymond Blaise des Bergere s replaced Captain Francois Lefebvre-Duplessis-Faber as the head of the troops stationed at F ort Louis in Chambly. A duel between the two men on July 15, 1689 landed both in prison. The y were tried the next day in Montreal. On November 16, the Souvereign Council absolved them a nd ordered Lefebvre to pay Blaise 600 pounds in damages. According to the transcript, Jean S ICARD de Carufel, first sergeant in the Company was called to care for Blaise des Bergeres' w ound. On August 4 of that year, August 4, one thousand five hundred Iroquois attacked Lachin e down river from the mission of Mont Royal [Montreal] killing 400.
A marriage contract prepared by the notary, Etienne Jacob and signed 25 November 1694 , states that, at the time, the Jean was a sergeant in the Company of Michel Leneuf de la Va lliere. Two days later, Sergeant Jean SICARD de Carufel, married Genevieve, daughter of Jacq ues RATTE and Anne MARTIN (grand-daughter of Abraham Martin dit l'Ecossais, a royal pilot. Th e land of Martin, called the Plains of Abraham, adjoined the famous plateau where Wolfe and M ontcalm battled.) The ceremony in the parish of Saint Pierre de l'Ile d'Orleans was officiate d by the Abby Dauric and witnessed by the widow of Genevieve Ratte & groom's father - Pierr e Sicard; Jacques Ratte and his wife, Anne Martin (the bride's parents), Jacques Gosselin, (J acques Ratte's brother-in-law or step-brother) andPierre Roberge. In addition to the dispens ation of two bans, due to Sicard's military career he had to seek permission from the Governo r-general to wed.
Jean returned to France in 1696 and, on May 22, in a ceremony held before a notary in Ca stres, the noble Jean SICARD, lord of Farguettes, officer in the Marine Troops in Canada, dec lared his loyalty and respect for his father, Pierre Sicard, and, in addition to words of aff ection and courtesy by Pierre, was emancipated and declared free to make his own decisions.
There are indications that Jean bore arms with "de geules, au paon rouant d'or, au che f cousu d'azur charge de trois etoiles d'argent." -- registered to Jean's great-grandmother' s family---St. Maurice de Coudols. Correspondence with the Armouries of France, Jean-Jacque s Lartigue 18 Jun 2000 stated that "There is only one family in France that possesses 'the re d shield with a gold peacock with an azur band bearing three silver stars', it is the famil y SAINT-MAURICE, sieur de Montpaon, de Coudols." A member of the family registered his armoir ies in the armorial general de France following the edict of Charles d'Hozier in 1696. Ther e is no indication that, following the SICARDs being declared nobles at the Montpellier tribu nal of 1669, the family registered their own coat of arms.
Jean returned to Nouvelle France and, on March 18 1704 after living ten years in Saint-P ierre d'Orleans, had the sale of property to his brother-in-law, Pierre Ratte notarised by Et ienne Jacob. At the time of the birth of their fifth child, Louis, in March 1705, Jean and Ge nevieve were living in Maskinonge in the seigneurie des Legardeur de Repentigny. The Governor , Marquis Philippe de Rigaud de Vaudreuil (1703-1726) and the intendant Francois de Beauharno is officially granted Jean Sicard the fief de Carufel on April 21, 1705 in an "Acte de conce sson".
The domain, two leagues [a "lieue" is an old unit of measure about 4 km] across by the s ame depth was in the area now known as Saint Justin. "de l'espace de terre qui reste dans l a riviere Maskinonge, dans le lac St. Pierre, depuis celle qui a este cy-devant concedee au s ieur Le Gardeur jusqu'au premier sault de la dite riviere, ce qui contient deux lieues ou env iron de front sur pareille profondeur En titre de Fief et seigneurie, haute, moyenne et bass e justice." In return, that same day (21 April 1705) Jean, an officer in the troops of the ma rine detachment, made an act of faith and hommage for the fief and seigneurie to Marquis d e Vaudreuil and Francois de Beauharnois.
Under the French seigneurial regime, seigneurs were duty-bound to promote colonization b y providing "immigrants with favourable conditions for the settlement and agricultural develo pment ..." [Translated] "From the time he took possession of his fief," wrote l'abbe Herman n Plante, "the lord of Carufel attempted to establish himself; but the timing was not good. I n 1705, it was difficult to move away from the Saint Lawrence River. The clearing of the seig neurie in Maskinonge wasn't advanced enough to provide for colonisation... fear of the Iroqu ois still existed. The peace treaty signed four years earlier in Montreal between the Frenc h and the savages buried the hatchet but the Indians hypocritical temperment made attractin g settlers difficult. The 1701 treaty, still unproven and providing no guarantees, did littl e to aid the lord of Carufel in attracting settlers to move far from the river... But the lo rd was aging," adds l'abbe Plante, "he didn't want to die before realising the profits from h is land." After vain attempts to attract his companions to follow him, around 1720 Jean (wh o would have been about 54 years old) travelled up the Maskinonge River, the only route at t he time, and, with his sons, began working on the south-west side about a quarter of a leagu e from the Maskinonge fief.
In a statement/ennumeration of 19 February 1723, Jean declared a sixteen foot square hou se enclosed by a pallisade and three acres of workable land. Few seigneurs could afford to li ve off their annual rents and, unless a seigneurie has 25-50 settled families, maintenance co sts generally surpassed revenues. That same year, Jean, who continued his military career whi le clearing the land, was promoted to the rank of Ensign of the Troops of the colony. It is b elieved that he continued to work his land for another nine years -- at least until 1732. The re are also several transactions recorded in the minutes of Pierre Petit including an agreeme nt August 16, 1728 with the Ursulines of Trois-Rivieres ending a land boundary dispute.
The 27 January 1737, the land-clearing septuagenarian made his testament in favour of hi s children. Four years later, in 1741, Jean SICARD de Carufel witnessed the sale of portion s of his land as his children sold their share to their brother-in-law, Jean-Francois Baril-D uchesny, spouse of Genevieve. The old officer-colonist-lord descended from the French aristo cracy did not survive long afterwards. He died in August 1743 at the age of 77.
It is interesting to note that although Jean-Baptiste and Genevieve would not have benef ited from Louis XIV's King's gift for males who married before age twenty and females befor e sixteen, they would have likely received the three hundred livres to those with ten childre n. [Fathers of twelve children received four hundred livres.]
Eight of Jean's ten children married before their father's death; the others married i n 1745 and 1751.

The best way for me to describe the relationship, is for
example if you have 6,000 people in your data base
that are connected via interlocking marriges, and
you find that you have a marriage that is interlocked into
one of my people in my data base, then they are related
via interlocking marriages, does not matter how distant.
The difference here is that the interlocking into my data
base would link to over 724,091 people via interlocking
marriages.

My hobby is working on interlocking marriages,to any
family surname that is in my data,and I exchange with
people to find them,and to assist them in finding lineage
that link into their families.

88 1653 Left France for New France
"Michel Lemay left his country for Canada in 1653."

"MICHEL LEMAY NO LONGER SUFFERED FROM WANDER-LUST. NOW HE STAYED HOME TO ENGAGE IN HIS FAVORITE PASTIME--EEL FISHING. THIS SPORT STARTED IN 1666 AS A MEANS OF EARNING SOME EXTRA MONEY. AT FIRST HE FISHED WITH NETS OFF THE POINTE-SAINT-CROIX. LATER, WHEN THE SPORT BECAME A BUSINESS, HE WOULD BUILD WEIRS, TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE TIDAL EBB AND FLOOD, IN ORDER TO TRAP THE WRIGLEY CREATURES. IT WAS NOT BY CHANCE THAT, WHEN SEIGNEUR CHARTIER OFFERED MICHEL A CONCESSION IN LOTBINIERE, HE INCLUDED FISHING RIGHTS IN THE RIVER IN EXCHANGE FOR "SIXTEENTH PART OF HIS CATCH, SALTED AND CONDITIONED." IN 1722, BACQUEVILLE DE LA POTHERIE WROTE THAT ON A SINGLE TIDE ONE COULD LAND AS MANY AS 3000 EELS. NOW THAT IS GOOD FISHING INDEED! LEMAY WOULD PUT THE FISH IN HOLDING TANKS, THEN SALT THEM DOWN IN BARRELS OF 500 EELS EACH. IN A GOOD SEASON, THE CATCH WOULD AMOUNT TO 60-70,000 EELS. THIS "FRUIT OF THE SEA" WAS SOLD FOR 25 TO 30 LIVRES A BARREL. IN 1679, JEAN LEMOYNE DELIVERED TO THE LEMAY FAMILY, "A WINDMILL WITH ALL THE PARTS, READY TO GRIND WHEAT INTO FLOUR." PRICE: 80 LIVRES, OR 3 LIVRES PER HUNDRED EELS."

Larry Desaire has the following note about his death:

Michel is the ancestor of the Lemay families in North America. Michel, among other occupation, was a fisherman. Sometime in December 1684 or January, he failed to come home. He probably drowned in the St. Laurence River while fishing. On 10 February 1685, Michelle Quinville signed a document at Quebec declaring herself a widow.

DURING THE NEXT SUMMER, MADAME FRECHETTE AND THE CHILDREN WENT TO SAINT-NICOLAS TO THE COUTARD HOME WHERE SUZANNE JAROUSSEL WAS GETTING ALONG IN YEARS. WE KNOW FROM THE RECORDS OF THE SOVEREIGN COUNCIL THAT THIS MOTHER OF ANNE LEREAU DIED BEFORE JULY 1700... AS FOR FRANCOIS, HE COULD HAVE CONTINUED TO LIVE AT QUEBEC IN ORDER TO EARN A LIVING FOR HIS FAMILY...FINALLY, THE FRECHETTE FAMILY IS FOUND REUNITED AT SAINT-NICOLAS IN THE SEIGNEURIE OF LAUZON, ACCORDING TO AN ACT NOTARIZED ON 6 OCTOBER 1703"

base would link to over 724,091 people via interlocking
marriages.

My hobby is working on interlocking marriages,to any
family surname that is in my data,and I exchange with
people to find them,and to assist them in finding lineage
that link into their families.

The best way for me to describe the relationship, is for
example if you have 6,000 people in your data base
that are connected via interlocking marriges, and
you find that you have a marriage that is interlocked into
one of my people in my data base, then they are related
via interlocking marriages, does not matter how distant.

92 Eli was my great-grandmother's (Elmire Cadotte's) first husband. He is the man (we spoke of earlier in this column who was kicked in the stomach by his horse). He died 20 Jul 1900: only 5 weeks after their marriage (13 Jun 1900 in Massey). One year later my grandmother (Elmire Cadotte) married my great-grandfather (Edmond Clairmont of Marmora & Gravenhurst). Elmire is the daughter of Auguste Cadotte (2nd Mayor of Massey).
