Death
'It appears that Marguerite Benoist spent her last years at Yamachiche at the home of her eldest son, Jean-Charles. On 19 August 1728, we learn that the widow was indebted to Joseph Leclerc dit Fleurant of Becancour for the sum of 151 livres. She must have died at the end of this same year, since on 4 January 1729, Jean-Charles, guardian of his four minor brothers, requested an inventory of the property of his dead father and mother.'
