Marriage notes:
PRDH has records of the baptisms of several of their children, the first one in Trois-Rivieres in 1650
"On 24 November 1647, Notary Flour Boujonnier (who died five years later in the disastrous expedition of Duplessis-Keebodot against the Iroquois) drew up a "contract of marriage which, God willing, will be made in the presence of our Holy Mother, the most Catholic, Roman and Apostolic Church, between Antoine Desrosiers, native of Bourg de Ranaison, in the vicinity of Lyon in France, and Anne du Herisson, a native of Bourg de Thierry in Normandy."
"Antoine actually married Anne Leneuf in 1649. Her father, in addition to being one of the largest landowners in New France, was also a commercial brewer."
