PELLETIER Nicolas Pelletier - Find A Grave: 121803523 In memory of Nicolas Peltier and Jeanne de Vousy who formed the first Pelletier family to settle in New France. Originally from the parish of Saint-Pierre and Saint-Paul of Gallardon in Beaucé (France), they arrived in the country on 11 Jun 1636, with their sons Jean and François. Remaining first at the Habitation de Quebec, they settled on the Saint-François-Xavier coast of Sillery around 1645. Governor Charles Husult of Montmagny grants to the master carpenter Nicolas Peltier 50 tracts of land on 12 Sep 1645. Father Jean de Quen, superior of the Company of Jesus in New France, grants him 50 more in May 1659. This monument relies on a portion of concessions attributed to the Peltier family. — The Pelletier Family Association Inc. — 12 Sep 2005 [Image originally posted 24 Aug 2013 courtesy of Ancestry member wendelina0866.] |
