Hello list! I'm assuming my last message will show up before this one, but
just in case here's the news. Libby was so very kind as to send me the
ascendency of M-Louise Giroux (m. to Francois Boucher), and lo and behold I
find the first person in my lines that is positively I.D'd as Native, Huron
to be specific - Marie Oliver m. to Martin Prevost-Provost. (As I said in my
reply to Libby, that is conditional on my Grandmother being the biological
child of the parents who raised her.) So I was very happy, and that also
rang a bell, because I've heard of this Marie before, mostly because she
also used the name Sylvestre (which of course is my surname), having been in
the care of one of the early New France members of that family. So I went
back to make sure this is the same person. Now, most of you already know
this but for those that don't, this marriage between Marie Manitouabewich
and Martin Prevost is generally said to be the first marriage between a
French man and a native woman in New France. And to think she was my 8th
great-grandmother!
For anyone interested, this is from the Quebec list, posted last month.
Marie Olivie Sylvestre Manitouabewich born about 1624 died September 10 1665
in Quebec, QC
daughter of
Roch Manitouabewich and Koeou (Sauvagesse) Outchibahabanou
married
Martin Prevost (son of Pierre and Charlotte Vien) November 3, 1644 in
Quebec, QC
Roch Manitouabewich, born abt 1600 died unknown
married Koeou (Sauvagesse) Outchibahabanou about 1620
Koeou (Sauvagesse) born about 1602, died unknown
Yes, Manitouabewich and Manitouabich are among the different ways you will
find the name spelled.

Hi everyone - thanks for sharing my happiness about this ancestor. The
following, as you can see is a message I received from Gary Boivin in July.
It has quite a bit of info about this family group, and even shows sources.
Large, nicely wrapped thank-yous to Gary, and good wishes, of course.

by giving him birth (1821). his Father was Pierre binette sr. (17921-).

I have every name and almost every date about Binette family from
Mathurin, father of the first Binette in America, but I know nothing
else about them. I you know what they did for living or anything from
Pierre and Sholastique to René Binette (1636-1699) and Catherine Le
Bourgeaois (1639-1702), I would really appreciate a such informations.

There is nothing secret about La Société St-Jean-Baptiste and no rituals. La
Société exists to promote french language and rights. Nowadays it's much
less important as the governments have adopted linguistic laws.
