This series of Early French Canadian Pioneer microposts is dedicated to the earliest settlers of Quebec. If you are new to the genealogy of French-speaking Canadians, please be aware that the earliest French settlers can also descend from the Acadian pioneers who originally settled in what are now Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. In addition, please note that any Native related links refer back to other posts citing census, marriage or other documents with indigenous or Metis individuals of that surname, however those individuals do not necessarily descend from these particular French Canadian settlers. All these posts are intended as Finding Aides – a place to find possible clues and start your own research!

  1. I have a Joseph Levesque b. Dec 11, 1684 in Riviere Ouelle, dying on Feb 10, 1755 in the same place. He married Marie Angelique Meneux who was born Mar 16, 1678 in St Famille, I.O. and died in Riviere Ouelle on Mar 8, 1759. She was the daughter of Jacques Meneux dit Chateneuf and Marguerite Peuvrier. Joseph’s parents were Robert b. France in 1640 and Jeanne Chevalier b. France about 1645.

    Marie Madeleine Levesque was born to Joseph and Angelique Meneux in riviere Ouelle on Sept 29, 1710. She married Augustine Plourde and died on Oct 21, 1777 in Riviere Ouelle.
