LE PERCHE

FOREWORD

The Perche region, located 100 miles West of Paris, France, is the origin of a large number of 17th Century settlers in Quebec. I have had the good fortune to visit the region several times. Both my wife have numerous French-Canadian ancestors who originated in Perche.


THE REGION



Perche, located 100 miles west of Paris, has always been a Region. It has never been an official Province or a Departement of France. It was created in 1115 when the comte of Mortagne was combined with the seigneuries of Nogent and Belleme. The main city is Mortagne. Before the Revolution it was part of the Province of Normandie. In 1799 when the 34 provinces of France were changed to 96 departements, Perche was included mostly within the Department of Orne but small parts of Perche lie within the current departements of Eure-et-Loir, Eure, Sarthe and Loir-et-Cher The parishes of St. Jean in Mortagne and St. Aubin in nearby Tourouvre accounted for a disproportionately large number of emigrants to Quebec. Fifty-three came from Mortagne and 45 came from Tourouvre.



Perche is a pastoral area consisting mainly of gently rolling farmland but, unlike much of France, it is blessed with some beautiful forests. It also benefits from a number of rivers and streams. It is not a particular popular tourist destination today because most visitors to France are looking for things that Perche does not offer.



It has been difficult for me to find the population and geographical size of Perche because it is not an "official" political subdivision of France. I would guess that the total population of Perche today is less than 200,000. Several of the larger cities today are: Nogent-le-Rotrou with 11,524 people; Mortagne-au-Perche 4,943; St-Cosmes-de-Vair 3,263; Belleme 1997; Tourouvre 1,662; and Logny-au-Perche. 1,625. I estimate the land area to be about 1,200 square miles, or about the size of Rhode Island.


WHY THE EMIGRATION TO QUEBEC

M. and Mme. Pierre MONTAGNE of Perche, both deceased, have researched the emigration which occurred primarily in the 1640's and 1650's. She reminds us that the King of France was offering incentives for his people to settle in New France. One incentive was the establishment of a group called La Compagnie des Cent Associes" (The Company of One Hundred Associates" who were to create seigneuries in Quebec that could be subdivided and conceded to qualified immigrants. The apothecary and surgeon, Robert GIFFARD of Autheil in Perche, was the first to acquire a Quebec seigneury. His seigneurie was in the area presently called Montmorency County, east of the city of Quebec, with Chateau-Richer and L'Ange-Gardien, as two of the main communities. GIFFARD enlisted the aid of the brothers Jean and Noel JUCHEREAU of Tourouvre to recruit people in the area for migration to Quebec. One historian has said that Noel was one of the hundred associates. In any case Noel spent much of his time in Perche doing the actual recruiting and contracting of emigrants. Jean spent most of the time in the Province of Quebec on the receiving end of the migration. Apparently another JUCHEREAU, Pierre, was active in France in readying the emigrants. The emigrants were often hired for a period of three years. Thus they were called "Les 36 Mois". Most of the recruits were bachelors. They were to be paid from 40 to 120 livres per year. In addition they were provided transportation to Nouvelle France and were to receive some land. Most were unskilled and illiterate.
Madame MONTAGNE tells us that Perche was not a poor area. People had the resources in Perche to acquire food and shelter. She suggests that it was the desire to try the unknown or to make a new start in another world that attracted some of the residents to sign the contract. Most of the immigrants stayed in Quebec although their contract provided for them to be returned to France after the terms of their employment in Quebec were fullfilled. On the other hand, I have reviewed the Quebec stay of thirty-nine Percheron men and two women who executed contracts before the Tourouvrain notary CHOISEAU in the years 1646 through 1651. Jette tells us only fourteen of these forty-one people permanently settled in Quebec. Incidentally the salaries of the two women were at the very low end of the scale.

THE IMMIGRANTS



The typical emigrant was a 37-1/2 year old illiterate bachelor from the Seigneury or Canton of Tourouvre who was a laborer or carpenter and who signed a 36 month engagement to work in New France.

The Perche pioneers were also prolific. L'Institut National d'Etudes Demographiques of the University of Montreal published "Naissance d'une Population" in 1987 which provided a lot of demographics concerning the Quebec pioneers prior to 1730. Among other lists the publication presented the ranking of the pioneers by the number of descendants they had prior to 1730, roughly three generations after their arrival in Quebec. In the top ten in Quebec there were: first Jean GUYON & Mathurine ROBIN with 2,150 descendants; second Zacharie CLOUTIER & Sainte DUPONT 2,090; fourth Marin BOUCHER with Julienne BARIL & Perrine MALLET 1,454; fifth Noel LANGLOIS & Francoise GRENIER with 1,388 and tenth Nicolas PELLETIER & Jeanne de VOUZY with 939.
Most of the following list of Percheron/Percherones came from an unpublished document by Jean-Francois HUBERT-ROULEAU. Although written in Perche, it is evident that some of the author's material came from Jette. For instance, the occupation and titles such as Seigneur of a person may have been the person's status in New France.



I don't pretend that the following is a complete list of immigrants from Perche as well as areas of Orne that are not within Perche. In abbreviated format I've provided when known: Name of emigrant; Occupation; accompanying family members; origin (usually the place where born); place and year of departure from France; Contract Length; Annual Salary in pounds; Whether could sign name or couldn't sign name; Marital status; and name, place and year of marriage of single women; and page of Jette where the person can be found. If an immigrant the person is shown as "Not in Jette", there is a high probability that the person returned to France after his or her 36- or 60-month contract was completed. I've indicated when death was in France if that information was available.

THE FOUNDING OF QUÉBEC CITY AND OF NEW FRANCE (http://pages.infinit.net/cloutijr/Arrivee_des_Cloutier.a.pdf)
The settlement established by Samuel de Champlain in Québec had a slow and difficult
beginning. The first family among settlers was that of Louis Hébert, a Parisian apothecary, in
1617. This Hébert has previously spent some time in Acadia with Champlain and knew him
well. This time Hébert had his wife Marie Rollet, his son Guillaume and his daughters
Guillemette and Anne with him. Champlain granted him land in 1623 in the upper town of
Québec city. However, he did not enjoy it very long as he died at the beginning of January
1627 from an accident. His only son, Guillaume, married Hélène Desportes in 1634 and they
had two daughters and one son, Joseph who married Marie-Charlotte de Poitiers in 1660.
Iroquois killed Joseph the next year leaving just one son who died early. So, our first settler did
not pass on his surname to descendants. However, his daughter Guillemette married in
Québec city in 1621 to Guillaume Couillard and has had numerous descendants. Her sister
Anne died giving birth to her first child whom did not survive.
In 1627, the colony comprised of about sixty men, five women and six young girls.
During this time, Champlain, a cartographer, explored the country as much as he could,
going as far west as Lake Huron and Lake Ontario and to Lake Champlain to the south. Only
the already hostile Iroquois prevented him from going further.
In 1629, the three Kirke brothers captured Québec city that was without decent protection, in
the name of the British3. Most of the settlers then returned to France except Guillaume
Couillard, his family, his mother-in-law Marie Rollet, in all, about twenty people. In 1632, the
Saint-Germain-en-Laye Treaty ended the British occupation. When Champlain returned in
1633, he had to start from scratch as the British had killed all the livestock, brought away all
supplies and destroyed all the structures.
Another Frenchman Robert Giffard, master surgeon and apothecary had already visited in
Québec city for the Compagnie des Cent-Associés. He had spent the 1625-26 winter there
and had taken a liking to the country. He was back again in 1629 but was caught by the
British4. Back in his native Perche, he planned and organized a project. He became associate
with Pierre Le Bouyer, Sieur de Saint-Gervais, an advisor to the king, in order to set up trade
and a settlement in New France. In 1634, he arrived in Québec city with about forty people
coming from the Perche region. The “Percherons” do not have the reputation of being
adventurers, but they seem to have the qualities sought by Giffard5. The group had six
families with many children in each. Of these people was Jeanne Mercier. She married Claude Poulin, a carpenter, in Québec city in
1639. This couple had nine children: Marie, Pascal, Madeleine, Martin, René, Ignace,
Marguerite, Marie (a second one) and Pierre.

Jeanne is also noted as being on of the 262 "Filles a Marier" - "Marriageble Gilrs" that emigrated to New France between 1634 and 1663. These women represented one quarter of all the single girls arriving in New France through 1673. They were recruited and chaperoned by religious groups or individuals who had to assure and account for their good conduct. In general, they were poor, although there were some members of the petty nobility among their ranks.
