Name	BOURGET Elisabeth
Birth	28 Jun 1694	Beaumont, QC
Gender	Female
Death	30 Nov 1765	Saint-Pierre-les-Becquets, Province de Québec
Notes	Occupation: Homemaker Religion: Catholic Alias/AKA: Isabelle ELISABETH BOURGET Jacques Turgeon, son of the Percheron Charles and of Pasquiere Lefebvre, was married at Beaumont on 26 November 1704, to Marie Jean, widow of Pierre Bourget dit Lavallee, mother of 4 children: Pierre, Elisabeth, Marie-Francoise and Marie-Madeleine. Elisabeth Bourget was born on 28 June 1694 at Beaumont where she was baptized two days later by the Recollet Joseph Remy and held at the baptismal font by Jean Cecile and Elisabeth Drouet. How to explain the meeting between Charles Chandonnet and Elisabeth Bourget in 1712 at Quebec? The 18-year old orphan was perhaps working as a maid for a family in the capital. At the home of Jean Giron? On 10 June, Elisabeth and Charles required the services of the notary Jean-Etienne Dubreuil to settle the terms of their marriage contract. At the time of this official ceremony, Elisabeth was called Isabelle. And here are the elegant witnesses participating in the celebration on this auspicious Friday: Chevalier Charles Aloigny, soldier from Saint-Louis, dame Genevieve Macard, his wife; Louis Deschamps de Bois Hebert; Nicolas Tramerit, Sieur de Lafosse; Denis Caffier, Sergeant; Jean Giron, bourgeois, and Charlotte de Chavigny, his wife in a second marriage. Charles endowed his bride "with a prefixed dowry of 1,000 livres". The promised and reciprocal dowry would be 600 livres. This was regal. Elisabeth's step-father hurried to give his step-daughter 30 minots of wheat and 10 cords of firewood. Elisabeth's wedding basket was overflowing! The action took place on Rue Couillard, at the house of Jean Giron. All these fine people, even the witness Louis Chalifour, signed before the apprehensive Isabelle. She did not know how to write. On Monday, 13 June 1712, there was the celebration of the wedding at the church of Notre-Dame. In those days a soldier had to obtain permission to marry. Thus, vicar general Des Maizerets had delivered a formal decree permitting this marriage, as had also Governor Philippe de Rigaud de Vaudreuil. Pastor Thomas Thiboult blessed this union in the presence of the witnesses recorded in the registry: Nicolas Framery (Tramerit) dit Lafosse, a Champenois friend of Charles; Denis Caffier dit Laplinterie, a sergeant in the company d'Eagly. In the census of Quebec, in 1716, the Chandonnets lived on Rue Couillard in the Upper Town, between neighbors Jean Badeau and Thomas Lemarier. The census taker recorded the age of Charles Chandonnet dit Leveille at 42 years. Already 2 children were living at their home: Charlotte and Marie- Marthe. Such was the beginning of the Chandonnet family in the heart of the city of Quebec, at the beginning of the eighteenth century. ____________________ Parents:Pierre Bourget and Marie Jean Viens Born 28 Jun 1694, baptized 30 Jun 1694 Married Charles Chandone son of Gatien Chandone and Marguerite Leger 13 Jun 1712 in Québec Died 30 Nov 1765, buried 1 Dec 1765 in St-Pierre-les-Becquets[1] Elizabeth was born June 28th 1694, she was the daughter of Pierre Bourget and his wife Marie Jean.
