Notes for Francoise Garnier:
Francois Garnier was born on March 16, 1604 in Coutran, Laferte-Gauche, Champagne, France; the daughter of Guillaume Garnier and Michelle Marille. She arrived in the small French colony on June 25, 1634; possiby as the intended of Noel Langlois; who had been recruited by Robert Giffard as a ship's pilot (navigator). They were married on July 25, 1634, in the church Our-Lady of Recouvrance, in Quebec; just the fourth Christian marriage celebrated in New France, and the first since it's restitution. The Jesuit priest Father Charles Lallemant, performed the ceremony, and the couple settled down in Beauport.
Noel was born on June 04, 1606, in St. Leonard des Parcs, Normandy, France; one of four children, to Guillaume Langlois and Jeanne Millette. His sisters, Francoise, Marguerite and Marie had gone to Quebec in 1620, but returned to France during British occupation of the colony. Marguerite and her husband Abraham Martin, were also returning with their niece, Helene Desportes.
On June 29, 1637, after honouring their agreement, Robert Giffard, conceded to Francoise and Noel, 300 arpents of land in Beauport, just west of the Montmorency Falls, where Noel was also employed as a carpenter, engaged in farming and the lumber business, and still acted as navigator when the need arose. They would have ten children.
Francoise died on November 1, 1665; from an accidental wound. There was a bit of mystery surrounding her death, taking place a day after she donated a parcel of land to the church, and made arrangements to distribute her property to her children. There were several legal transactions later; with regards to her estate; and it would be several years before the matter was settled.
In the meantime, Noel married Marie Crevet, the widow of Robert Caron at Chateau Richer on July 27, 1666; several months after Francoise's death.
In June of 1683, he gathered his children together to distribute his land amoungst them. He died in Beauport on July 14, 1684. According to the register: "Noël Langlois of approximately 80 years, deceased this day; in a state of Christian piety, after having received the sacraments of the Church and having carried out an exemplary life with the approval of all the parish."
