Jean BEAUDOIN — (ca 1638 - 1713)
Pioneer Jean-Baptiste ('Jean') Beaudoin passed away on September 25th, 1713, at Montréal.
Jean and wife Charlotte Chauvin had twelve children. Their many notable descendants include Angelia Jolie, Shemar Moore, and the late Alex Trebek.
The marriage of Charlotte's parents, Michel Chauvin and Anne Archambault, was marked by scandal: Michel was exposed as a bigamist. In those days he could have expected harsh treatment by the courts, but he fled New France before being brought to trial.
