François-Noel VANASSE married

Jeanne FOURRIER-- Date: 2 August 1671 Place: Cap-de-la-Madeleine, Canada, New France
PRDH indicates that Francois Vanasse and Jeanne Fourier signed a contract of marriage in an undetermined place in Quebec, Canada in 1671.

"This document, dated 2 August 1671, mentions that Francois was the son of Paul Vanasse and of Barbe Montel, from the parish of Saint-Maclou in Rouen. The future bride, Jeanne Fourier, was only nineteen years old, but she was already a widow. The daughter of Pierre Fournier and of Jeanne Busson had married Jean Baillon about 1669, and there were not children from her first union. The nuptial ceremony must have taken place a few days or weeks later in the humble chapel given by Pierre Boucher to the parish of Cap-de-la-Madeleine."
