1679: Jean Valiquet dit Laverdure of Montreal – The Designated Family Black Sheep
Post #775, 1 Dec. 2016
My eighth great-grandfather Jean Valiquet dit Laverdure (1632-1696) was baptized 14 July 1632 at Saint-Vincent church, Le Lude, Angers, Anjou, France. He was the third of the seven children of Jean Valiquet and Nicole Langevin (1604-1658).
French Solider in New France c. 1650
Jean was a locksmith and gunsmith. He signed an agreement on 16 April 1653 to be a contract worker (Engagé) for the Great Recruitment of 1653. Paul de Chomeday de Maisonneuve, the founder of Montreal (then called Ville-Marie) in 1642, had returned to France to hire 117 contract workers as reinforcements to help protect the settlers from the marauding Iroquois. The group arrived in Ville-Marie and Jean also took on duties as a corporal in the eighteenth regiment protecting the settlement.
Jean married Marie-Renee Lops (1643- ) 23 September 1658 at the small church of Notre-Dame at Ville-Marie, New France. She was born about 1643 at Saint-Jean-de-Monthe parish, Le Mans, Maine, France to Jean Lops (1621-1702) and Marie Despres (1625- ). Marie arrived at Ville-Marie in 1658. Marie-Renee and Jean had eight children from 1660 to 1676. Their third child Marie-Elisabeth (1665-1740) would be my seventh great-grandmother. The 1667 New France census stated the family was living in Montreal and owned eleven “arpents en valeur” – about eight acres of land.
The life of Jean Valiquet changed for the worse on 7 September 1679 when the bailage (the office of the bailiff) arrested him for molestation. The lawsuit charged him with having carnal relations with one daughter and attempting to seduce two others. He was condemned to be hung in a public place until dead.
On the following November 21, Jacques Milot gave testimony and described extenuating circumstances. The court commuted Valiquet’s sentence to perpetual banishment from the island of Montreal. In addition, the Sovereign Council confiscated all his possessions. (I would hope they were given to his wife and children.)
After his departure from Montreal, Jean made a living by working odd jobs around Lauzon and other settlements in New France. Jean’s sad tale ended when he entered the Hotel-Dieu-de-Precieux-Sang (Hospital of the Sacred Blood), Quebec City in early August 1696, where he died destitute and was buried the same day on August 20.
Marie-Reneee was one of the Marriageable Girls who came to New France on her own from 1643 to 1663 to seek a husband and a future. We do not know what happened to her; no further documentation of her life has been found after Jean’s departure from Montreal.
