GAGNE

Louis Gagne and Louis Guimond, whose families both lived in Sainte-Anne du Petit-Cap, both mysteriously disappeared in 1661 as there is no record of their deaths. However, a document preserved at the Seminary of Quebec says that, "on the 18th of this month (June 1661) at 8:00 in the morning began the massacre of several people at Beaupre...which is found to be true."

It's believed that they were both captured in the attack and that Louis Guimond was beaten close to death. It's also believed that Louis Gagne received mortal wounds and he received aid from the Nursing Sisters of the Hotel-Dieu in Quebec, but there is no proof of what happened to either man.
