A Marriageable Young Girl | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Jeanne Cerisier (1641-1709) |
||||||||||||||||||||||
Jeanne-Genevieve Cerisier was born about 1641 in Amboise, Tours, Touraine, Indre-et-Loire, France; the daughter of Jacques Cerisier and Marie Lalande. She arrived in the Quebec Colony on June 24, 1663, to serve as a domestic to Louis Rouer de Villerayas, the Secretary of Governor Lauzon. There is a bit of confusion over her founding mother status, since she appears as both a Filles A Marier, and Filles Du Roi, though in fact she was an Indentured Servant. However, she was definitely a founding mother, marrying Francois Duclos on November 26, 1665 at Cap-De-Madeleine, with whom she had eight children. Francois was born on March 12, 1627 at Manerbe, Blangy, Lisieux, Normandy, France; the son of Charles Duclos and Madeleine Bouffard. Jeanne-Genevieve died on September 17, 1709 in Batiscan and her husband followed on December 04, 1711. |
