Marriage notes:
"It was necessary to rebuild all that the waters had carried away: a future. Widower Nicolas Lebel turned to the west and crossed the Riviere du Sault Montmorency. He stopped at Beauport. There he discovered the honorable family of Jean Mignault dit Chatillon, and of Louise Cloutier. Eight living children enlivened this happy home at that time. The eldest of the daughters, 14 years old, was noticed by Nicolas. Therese had been baptized at Quebec on 15 September 1651, by the Jesuit Jerome Poncet. She had even attended the convent of the Ursulines of Quebec for a while."
"Gradually the fabric of their love grew. On Sunday, 29 March 1665, the solemn drafting of their marriage contract took place at the home of Uncle Jean Cloutier, a resident of Chateau-Richer. A large gathering of the Mignault family and friends had been summoned. The notary Claude Auber presided. Pierre Gagnon and Jean Cauchon stood up for the groom... At the bottom of the contract, Nicolas made his mark: an X in the middle of a circle; Therese drew a heart or an apple with its stem."
"Nicolas the laborer, and young Therese had their three marriage banns published. The nuptial blessing at Chateau-Richer was celebrated on 2 April 1665, in the presence of the family, friends and Father Morel..."
