Did You Know? Québec Généalogie - What is a 'dit/dite' name?  When the first settlers came to Québec from France it was a custom to add a 'dit' nickname to the surname. The English translation of 'dit' is 'said'. The Colonists of Nouvelle France added 'dit' names as distinguishers. A settler might have wanted to differentiate their family from their siblings by taking a 'dit' name that described the locale to which they had relocated. The acquiring of a 'dit' name might also be the result of a casual adoption, whereby the person wanted to honor the family who had raised them. Another reason was also to distinguish themselves by taking as a 'dit' name the town or village in France from which they originated. This custom ended around 1900 when people began using only one name, either the 'dit' nickname or their original surname.

Jacques was a Orfevre et horloger.
An orfèvre, or silversmith, is normally a manufacturer of jewelry, religious objects, and gold and silver tableware. In New France, however, the silversmith manufactured mainly sacred vessels made of precious metals for churches and monasteries . More specifically, he made chalices and ciborias, monstrances, burettes and trays, censers and shuttles, processional crosses, solid silver candlesticks, holy water sprinklers, sanctuary lamps, vases for oils, collection plates or plates intended to carry wedding ceremony rings. Domestic silverware during this period was rare.
