5221 Occupation: Baker In Quebec In 1666;farmer @ Riviere Ouelle In 1681

Pierre Hudon (son of Jean Hudon and Francoise Durand) was born in
1648 or 1649 at Notre Dame de Chemille in Anjou, France. (Today the
department of Maine-Loire).
Arrived in Canada 17 Aug 1665 as a soldier in the Compagnie de
Grandfontaine of the Regiment de Carignan.
According to the census of 1666, Pierre Hudon was at Quebec. He was
a baker. He married Marie Gobeil, July 13, 1676 at Quebec. She was
born in 1658 at Poitiers,
France (daughter of Jean Gobeil and Jeanne Guiet). Pierre Hudon then
went to Riviere Ouelle, P. Q. Canada and bought a farm. It is there
that he lived all his life. We note
that at the census of 1681 that he had two guns, 2 head of cattle
and 10 acres of land under cultivation. He died April 25, 1710 at
Riviere Ouelle, P. Q. Canada. His wife
died in 1736.

He was from Notre-Dame de Chemillem eveche d'Angers, in France.

Grandfontaine au regiment de Carignan (RC).

Pierre Hudon dit Beaulieu

Exactly a century ago in Quebec, the Abbot Henri-Raymond Casgrain
published a history of Riviere-Ouelle.(1) Entitled "Une paroisse
canadienne du XVIIe siecle " this
small volume, from the first chapter, launches the reader on the
track of those whom the genealogist Drouin calls the "heros of the
Riviere-Ouelle." Among the legendary
people who forced the fleet of Admiral Phips to retreat in October
of 1690 was, first and foremost, the curate, Pierre de Francheville.
He was a native Canadian, born at
Trois-Rivieres on 14 July 1649, the son of Marin Terrier de
Repentigny, Sieur de Francheville and of Jeanne Jallaut.(2)
Messengers from Ouebec had warned this young
priest that a large fleet of British and American warships was
coming up the river with the obvious intention of taking Quebec.
Since the Seigneur of la Bouteillerie was
absent, the parishioners begged their pastor to lead them in an
attempt to prevent the landing of enemy troops.(3)

THE "HEROS OF RIVIERE-OUELLE"

Abbot Casgrain wrote the following appraisal of this unique
religious leader:

"Ardent and impetuous of character, soldierly of bearing with looks
that pierced one's soul just as all the missionaries of former times:
such was the curate of
Riviere-Ouelle, who was also a pious and zealous priest."
On this October morning our "pious and zealous priest" would have
gladly exchanged his rough homespun robe for a coat of mail from the
crusades of the middle ages, so
much did he feel like the soul of a warrior. Said he to his
parishioners:(4)

"I would not acknowledge you if you show yourselves cowardly enough
to let here debark the miscreants from Boston without striking a
blow. You know what waits for
you if you let them come near: They will burn your houses, your
church, profane the holy vessels like they have done elsewhere and
carry you away into captivity; you,
your wives and your children. Remember that these men are the
enemies of God as well as ours. Take up your arms, and hold your
selves ready at the first signal!"

He needed say no more to convince this handful of peace loving
colonists: It was no sooner said than done! Each ran home to take the
family gun down off the mantle and
fill their powderhorns and leather sacks of leaden shot. They took
cover behind the brush which lined the river-bank and waited in
silence for the fleet which had already
appeared over the horizon. As planned, the enemy dropped anchor
across from their village and small boats filled with soldiers began
leaving the ships. As soon as the
invader came near to shore, a shower of shot greeted them. Surprised
by this not so cordial reception, and with the dead and wounded
filling the boats, the oarsmen put
about and headed for open water. The news of this feat of arms
spread like wildfire to Quebec and undoubtedly prompted Frontenac,
when face to face with the emissary of
Phips, to make that famous retort which we so well know.

Continuing his account of this event, Abbot Casgrain tells USA that
Monsieur de Francheville had driven back the assault force with but
thirty-nine combatants. The names
of some of them were: Francois and Joseph Deschamps, the sons of the
absent Seigneur; Robert Levesque, Galeran Boucher, Charles Miville,
Michel Bouchard, Pierre
Dancosse, Joseph Renault, Guillaume Lizot, Rene Ouellet, Jean
Pelletier, Jean Lebel, Pierre Emond, Mathurin Dube, Jean Mignot dit
Labrie, Noel Pelletier, Jean Gauvin,
Pierre de Saint-Pierre, Nicolas Durand, Francois Autin, Sebastien
Boivin and Pierre Hudon dit Beaulieu.

HE ARRIVED WHEN ABOUT TWELVE YEARS OLD

The last man named above is the ancestor of all the Hudons and the
majority of the Beaulieu families in America. Even though, at the
time of the battle he was only in his
early forties, he had already worked in Canada for thirty years. In
1661, he was no more than twelve years old when his presence was
noted for the first time, on the Ile
d'Orleans. His signature "Pierre Hudon" appeared then in a document.
(6) Several ships had arrived from Normandy that year and during the
course of the preceding
summer.

On 3 April 1664, the official reports of the Sovereign Council of
New France, reveal that Pierre, then a domestic servant for Sieur
Nicolas Marsolet dit Saint Agnan, had
lodged a complaint against the domestic servant of Abraham Martin
because this person had abused him. The young man petitioned that a
provision of food and medicine be
awarded to him and he won his case after testimony given in his
favor by Sieur de Tilly and master surgeon Jean Madry. To this value
of about twenty silver livres,
Saint-Martin was ordered to pay court costs and make the payment at
once or suffer imprisonment.(7)

Pierre Hudon was listed in the census of 1666 among those living in
Quebec who were unmarried.(8) He was said to be eighteen years old
and working at the trade of
baker. The following year Pierre was among those missing from the
census. Where was he? Had he temporarily returned to France? Had he
gone into the fur trade? No one
knows. Not only was he missing that year but it was necessary to
wait nearly ten more years before hearing from him again.

A NATIVE OF ANJOU

The fact of his renewed presence was noted in his marriage agreement
made at Quebec on 13 July 1676. The hale and handsome groom must have
been about twenty-seven
years old. The registry tells USA that Pierre was already living at
Riviere-Ouelle and that he was the son of Jean Hudon and of Francoise
Durand, both deceased, from the
parish of Notre-Dame de Chemille, diocese of Angers in Anjou. (9) As
for the bride, Marie Gobeil, she lived in the lower town of Quebec,
the daughter of Jean Gobeil and
of Jeanne Guiet, originally from Saint-Didier de Poitiers, and
presently living in the parish of Saint-Pierre on the Ile d'Orleans.
The Gobeils were married in France and
immigrated to Canada with their first children. The marriage was
blessed by Abbot Henri de Bernieres, in the presence of the father of
the bride Robert Vaillancourt,
Monsieur Gachet and Antoine Bernard. The day before the ceremony,
notary Pierre Duquet drew up the marriage contract between the future
husband and wife.

It is necessary to wait until the census of 1681 for more news about
the Hudon family, if we make an exception, of course, for the arrival
of the first three children:
Marie-Gertrude and Pierre were baptized at Riviere-Ouelle, and
Catherine-Marguerite at L'Islet. Therefore in 1681, the Hudons had
not moved; they were still at
Riviere-Ouelle, in the seigneurie of la Bouteillerie.(10) Pierre was
32 years old, Marie was 23, and their children were four, two and one
year old, respectively. Their
property consisted of two guns (perhaps the same ones which were
used nine years later to drive away the Bostonians), two head of
cattle and ten arpents of cleared land
under cultivation. These were rather meager holdings for a colonist
who had been settled on his farm for at least five or six years. To
augment the agricultural produce, they
had to hunt and fish.

FARMING, HUNTING AND FISHING

The Abbot Casgrain tells USA that: (11)

"To the resources which our ancestors drew from agriculture, were
added those of hunt ing and fishing, the abundance of which was for a
long time incredible. They were
the providential manna which prevented the population from dying of
starvation during disastrous times when war continually held the men
under arms and forced them to
let the countryside go without cultivation. The neighboring forests
were stocked with native animals,such as deer, moose, caribou, bear,
lynx, beaver, otter, martin, mink,
fox, hare, squirrel, etc. Each spring and autumn large flocks of
Canadian geese, ducks, wild geese, turkey, teal, wood cock, pheasant,
plover, lark, dove, partridge, etc.,
came to rest on our shores and in the fields.

Proportionately, as the woods were cleared away, hunting was
curtailed: but fishing, although quite diminished, is still today an
important branch of industry and
commerce. Until the beginning of this century, salmon, shad, bass,
sturgeon, eel, herring, rockfish and capelin were caught in a
quantity sufficient to make the fortune of
each inhabitant if a convenient market was available nearby; but the
majority of these fish were all but worthless, lacking modern means
of preservation and distribution...
But one fish otherwise quite interesting and lucrative was the
porpoise. This superb cetacean, which grows to twenty-five feet, and
which is particular to our climate, makes
his appearance among the ice floes. They may be seen swimming in
large schools, sometimes but a stone's throw from shore, appearing
from time to time in order to
breathe just as whales do, and because of the whiteness of their
skin, seem to look like balls of snow floating on the water."

In spite of these abundant wild life resources within his reach,
Pierre Hudon knew that the future of his children would remain in
agriculture. On 26 February 1692, he
accepted a certain stretch of unallocated land from Seigneur
Deschamps. (12) It was bounded by the land of Jean-Galerin Boucher,
by that of the late Jacques Thiboutot and
the River Ouelle. Our ancestor lived for several more years after
this transaction but finally died and was buried in his adopted land
on 25 April 1710, at the age of sixty
years.

MARIE GOBEIL LOOKS AFTER HER FAMILY

As for mother Marie Gobeil, she continued to take care of her family
for more than a quarter century. On 27 August 1720, ten years after
the death of her husband, she had
an inventory taken of his property. (13) On 27 July 1722, she made a
donation to her son Louis. (14) Then on 15 April 1723, she gathered
her heirs together for a final
division of their inheritance. (15) Marie was able to attend the
marriages of almost all of her children, who settled not far from the
paternal hearth: at Riviere Ouelle,
Kamouraska and Saint-Anne-de-la-Pocatiere. On 26 November 1736, she
was laid to rest in this land which she had learned to love as much
as the waters of the rivers and
the streams, as much as the friendly people of her magnificent
parish.

Marie Gobeil belonged to this race of women of whom historian
Raymond Douville has said: "To them belongs the perpetuity owed by
the generations which followed."
(16)

A RATHER SEDENTARY FAMILY

The family of our ancestor Pierre Hudon dit Beaulieu barely moved
from their adopted land, that of Riviere-Ouelle. Some of the children
settled in neighbor ing parishes
such as L'Islet, Kamouraska and Sainte Anne-De-La-Pocataire. The
circle of families was so limited that most of the marriages were
contracted with the Paradis and
Gagnon families, undoubtedly friendly neighbors.

Here is some information on the eleven Hudon children from whom the
greatest number of Beaulieu families in America descend:

1. Marie-Gertrude, baptized at Quebec on 8 July 1677; married at
Riviere-Ouelle on 4 July 1697 (contract by private agreement the day

4. Joseph, baptized at Riviere-Ouelle on 1 June 1685 and buried on
12 December 1711. Married on 28 July 1711 at L'Islet to Genevieve

Loignon, they never left Riviere Ouelle where they had five sons and
four daughters.

6. Francois, baptized at Riviere-Ouelle on 8 April 1689 and died
after 1740. First marriage to Genevieve Paradis, daughter of

Madeleine Meunier. Nicolas was a Lieutenant in the militia of his
native parish where he and Madeleine
had eleven sons and five daughters.

8. Jean-Bernard, baptized at Riviere-Ouelle on 2 February 1694 and
buried on 19 November 1759. Married on 13 June 1718 in this place
(contract Janneau, 11 June) to
Marie-Charlotte Gagnon, daughter of Jean and of Jeanne Loignon. They
lived at Riviere-Ouelle and had six sons and four daughters.

9. Marie-Francoise, baptized at Riviere Ouelle on 27 March 1696 and

Master joiner, pioneer and caption of the Lauson shore. Swiss by
birth, Miville came Canada via La Rochelle at a date that has not
been established with certainty but that was previous to 28 Oct 1649,
on which date he, along with his son Francois, received from the
governor, LOUIS D'AILLEBOUT, a grant of land in the seigneury of
Lauson, which was later raised to the status of arriere-fief. Miville
apparently tried to entice some of his compatriots to Canada. In
fact, on 16 July 1665, M. de PRO UVILLE de Tracy granted him, along
with his sons and four other persons, a concession measuring 21
arpents by 40 at Grande Anse (La Pocatiere), naming the locality "the
Canton of Fribourg Swiss." This undertaking was unsuccessful. Pierre
Miville stayed at Lauson until his death, 14 Oct 1669. In France he
had married Charlotte Maugis, who bore him six children, at least;
one of them, Jacques, was the founder of the Miville-Deschenes
families of North America.

In 1880 he is still listed there with a different wife, Jane, and one more son, Melvin, born 1880. Also living with her brother and his family is Lovina. On this census she is call Vina.

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. 		BOURGET Elisabeth (I1361)

years, and built the Chondonnet Lumber Yard in Waubun.

"Onesimus Chandonnet was born in the district of Three Rivers,
Canada, on the 18th of May, 1855. When 16 years of age, he came to
Michigan, working on the Saginaw
river. Then, removing to Massachusetts, he was employed on the
Hoosac Tunnel until 1878, when he came to this county, and has since
resided on a farm. Mr.
Chandonnet was married to Miss Julia Branchard on the 4th of July,
1879. They have one son." [History of the Upper Mississippi Valley,

5276 Occupation: Managed (W/ Paul) Fur Trading Post @ Lac-Du-Flambeau, WI

3/16 Ojibwe

Basile H. Beauleu (son of Nicolas Basile Hudon Beauleu and Josette
Miville) came from Montreal, P. Q. Canada with his brother Paul to
Lac-du-Flambeau, Wisconsin about 1804. Voyageur with the North West
Fur Company, 1804-1805, Flambeau, Minnesota. Basile and his brother
Paul managed the Fur Trading Post at Lac-du-Flambeau, WI. In 1818
Basile is listed among the "Roster of Employees" of the American Fur
Company. Basile (Bazile) was listed by the North West Fur Company in
1805 in the Lac du Flambeau department with one year to serve on his
contract and a crdit of 16 livre on his account. He was hired by the
Michilimackinac Company on 9 July 1810 to winter at Lac du Flambeau
for 700 livre.(p. 33)19 The town of Beauleu, Mahnomen County,
Minnesota was named after the descendants of Basile and his Ojiway
wife. Basile H. Beauleu married in 1810 in Wisconsin an Indian Maiden
named O-Ge-mau-gee-shi-go-qua, which means Queen of the Skies, but
was called Marguerite Beauleu. (She was the daughter of the Indian
Chief, White Raven.) It is believed that Basile H. Beauleu died in
1838 and is buried in the Beauleu burial grounds at La Pointe,
Madeleine Island, Wisconsin.

Resided at Lac du Flambeau, Wisconsin Territory with the Northwest
Fur Co. in 1804. Emigrated from canada at that time.
His family came to America from France in 1764, being royalists in
the old country, and for meritourious services rendered to their
sovereign, "De Beaulieu" was added to their family name of "Hudon".

Bazil H. Beaulieu

Posted by Dick Campbell on Fri, 18 Jun 1999

The following is a quote from Alvin H. Wilcox's 1907 book "A Pioneer
History of Becker County Minnesota" Chapter XVIII, pages 260-261:

Among Mrs. West's papers I came across the following clipping from
the Detroit Record of January 27th, 1893:

Mr. Basil H. Beaulieu, an old and respected pioneer of Wisconsin and
Minnesota, has been commissioned by the Commissioner of Indian
Affairs a judge of the court of Indian offenses at this agency. Mr.
Beaulieu was tendered his commission and officially notified of his
appointment by Agent C. A. Ruffee on Monday. He is the proud
possessor of a document sear and yellow with age, it being one of the
three justice of peace commissions issued by the first territorial
governor of Wisconsin, Mr. Beaulieu being one of the three persons
appointed to execute the duties of that then honorable position, his
field being Brown County, in 1836.

As the name, Bazil H. Beaulieu, was identical with that of the Bazil
H. Beaulieu who came from Montreal in 1804, and believing that in
1836 he would be too young a man for the Bazil H. Beaulieu of 1804, I
wrote to Theodore H. Beaulieu of White Earth for information, and
received the following reply:

White Earth, Minn., Oct. 23, 1905.

HON. A. H. WILCOX
FRAZEE, MINN.,
My Dear Sir:
Replying to yours of the 16th inst., concerning the identity of Bazil
H. Beaulieu, who came from Montreal, Canada, and settled at Lac du
Flambeau, Wis., the then territory of Michigan, in 1804, etc., you
are respectfully informed that this person was my father's uncle and
a granduncle of mine. There were two brothers, Paul and Bazil Hudon
de Beaulieu. Paul was my father's father and my grandfather; Bazil
Hudon de Beaulieu was the father of the late Col. Clement H., Paul
H., Henry H. Beaulieu, and was also the father of Mrs. Catherine
Beaulieu Fairbanks (Mrs. Robert Fairbanks), Mrs. Margaret Beaulieu
Bisson (Mrs. Martin Bisson), Mrs. Gustave Borup, deceased, and Mrs.
Julia Beaulieu Oakes; the latter being the only surviving child of
the said Bazil Hudon de Beaulieu. She is at present at this agency
and is now 94 years of age, and still hale and hearty. My father, the
late Bazil H. Beaulieu, the second, was the only son of Paul Hudon de
Beaulieu, and is the person referred to in the clipping. My grand
uncle Bazil was stationed at Lac du Flambeau as an Indian trader, and
my grandfather Paul was at Vermillion Lake and also Red Cedar (now
Cass Lake), some time between 1830 or 1840 (I am not clear as to
date.) My grandfather removed to Navareno (now Green Bay, Wis.), and
settled there. Later on he purchased large tracts of land, as also
the old Stockbridge agency sawmill and grist-mill from the Government
on the south side of the Fox River and where is now built the
flourishing city of Kaukauna, Wis. Sometime about 1848 my father also
removed to Green Bay, and on the death of my grandfather he fell heir
to all of the property, he being the only child. Our family removed
from Kaukauna, Wis., about 26 years ago and settled at White Earth,
Minn. Both my grandfather and grandmother are buried at the old
French or mission cemetery at Green Bay, Wis. My mother and father
sleep in St. Benedict's mission cemetery, White Earth, Minn.

Appreciating the interest you manifest in the history of the sturdy
pioneers, who braved the wild and woolly days of your, and helped to
carve the crude paths of this grand commonwealth, I have the honor,
dear sir, to remain,

Very respectfully,
Theo H. Beaulieu

__________

The name "Beaulieu" was a nickname give to Pierre which would be Bazile's Grandfather. When in France - Pierre lived by a forest and the nickname had something to do with reference to that. I found some paperwork in French and had it translated by a man in Canada who was fluent in French.

The cemetery that Bazile is buried in - is in Madeline Island and it isn't the "Beaulieu Burial Ground" there are other catholics buried there. Bazile died 9/9/1938.

When Bazile, Paul and Roman came to the US - they went to Madeline Island. There are miles between Lac du Flambeau and Madeline Island. After Bazile and O Gii Maa Gee Zhi Go Ikwe were married - they went to Sault St Marie and Lac du Flambeau. I even had the chance to hold and open his "Money Box" - it is in good condition and I was trilled to hold it. I don't know where the name Racine name came from. When I went to Wisconsin - others out there didn't know where it came from either. She did have an Aunt who changed her name to "Marguerite"

The Bazile Beaulieu that was in Brown County, Wis - was Bazile's nephew. His dad is Bazile's brother Paul Orde Hudon Beaulieu.

The cemetery St Benedicts is also called Calvary - it is a Catholic cemetery in White Earth. Paul H Beaulieu - son of Bazile and O Gii Maa Gee Zhi Go Ikwe is buried there. There is a black fense are it and nephew and nieces are buried in that fenced area. Maria - Paul's wife is said to be buried in there without a head stone but I haven't spoken to a Sector yet to see what the records state.

O Gii Maa Gee Zhi Go Ikwe is buried in a hillside with no marker and the area is not taken care of. There is a well kept cemetery by where she is suppose to be buried by. It is believed that Hole in the Day is also buried in that hill side. Hole in the Day shot and killed O Gii Maa Gee Zhi Go Ikwe's daughter in law's Maria Margaret Fairbanks Beaulieu's brother. It is also rumored that O Gii Maa Gee Zhi Go Ikwe's grandson Colonel Clement Hudon Beaulieu killed Hole in the Day as retaliation but stories are that Hole in the Day's band members killed him. It will never be known who really killed Hole in the Day.

Growing up on the Rez - we never knew about how relocation happened. We heard about the Cherokees and Sioux. In Red Lake we had a relocation program and we thought it was Indians in the 1950s going to cities to find jobs through the Aid of the BIA. I never thought that the Beaulieu's were on 3 removal orders almost 4.

1st with Madeline Island - because of the copper find.

2 from Sandy Lake/Lake Vermillion because of the massacre.

3 from Crow Wing because James Hill wanted the land for the railroad - since you are so close - it may be a nice ride to Crow Wing State Park - that was the Rez until James Hill took it. There are signs that will tell you where certain buildings were and Colonel Clement Beaulieu's house was re-eracted there. I knew about where O Gii Maa Gee Zhi Go Ikew was buried and when I seen it - it broke my heart. To think that this woman was responsible for populating northern Minnesota with Beaulieu's and their descendants and she's resting in overgrowth of weeds while the cemetery she is by - is well cared for.

4 when some of the Beaulieu's started to revolt against the Govt and the way they treated Natives and now they were educated to fight the fight - they received removal orders from White Earth until they proved through documentation where they had to choose what Rez they wanted to be recognized by - since Madeline Island was no more - they had no choice but to pick White Earth since everyone they ever knew was there. The Warrens, Caddotes and Beaulieu's were all shoved to White Earth even thought they were close by Lac du Flambeau, Red Cliff, Fond du Lac, etc.

Religion: Catholic
Alias: Caludine; Sister of the Visitation

Marie-Claude, born on 3 March 1672 and baptized 17 days later at
Quebec, entered the Ursuline Convent at the age of 19 as a domestic
nun on 7 October
1691. She took the name of "Sister of the Visitation", when she made
her vows on 5 August 1694. She was sent to Trois-Rivieres in August
1699 where
"she was at one and the same time, nurse, cook, laundry woman,
gardener, and keeper of the chicken coop." When she became blind
toward the end of
her days, she still found the means to render service to the
community while not missing a single day without making her devotions
to the Virgin in the
Chapel of the Saints. She died in 1745 at the age of 73.

When daughter Marie-Claude, called "Claudine" by Notary Chambalon,
entered the Ursuline Convent, her father was supposed to pay the nuns
a dowry
which he neglected to do. Somewhat embarrassed, the sisters asked
the notary to look into this delicate matter, which he did. Papa paid
up by 4 August
1694. 		LEVASSEUR Marie-Claude (I5132)

5388 On the eastern edge of the Allegheny Plateau, near the Appalachian
Highlands in the State of Pennsylvania is the County of Cambria.
Fifteen miles due north of the County seat, Ebensburg, is the village
of Carrolltown, center of a farming community. On a farm, about a
mile and a half from town lived Charles and Regina Abt Poss. Here, on
September 30, 1864, was born a son, Anthony. There were other
children in the family, four girls and a boy. From what we can
gather, they were all older than Anthony. His brother's name was
Charles, and his sisters were, Lizzie (Mrs. Fred Hufnagel), Mary
(Mrs. Len Farnbaugh), Catherine (Mrs. Fred Farnbaugh) and Lena, who
never married. Charles and Regina, Anthony's parents, were
Pennsylvania Dutch and they lived on the farm with their children
until 1870, when they moved into Carrolltown, where Charles plied his
trade as a stonecutter. Some two years after leaving the farm, when
Anthony was eight years old, his father died. The year before, 1871,
Lizzie and Mary had left the family home and moved to Beaver Falls,
Minnesota. Not long after Charles' death, Anthony's mother, Regina,
married a man by the name of Hiller. In 1873, the other two girls,
Catherine and Lena, followed Lizzie and Mary to Beaver Falls. Anthony
and Charles continued to live with their mother and stepfather until
1874, when they and their parents left Carolltown to join the girls
in Beaver Falls.
As Anthony was nearly ten years old when the family left
Pennsylvania, he had already started to school. He continued his
education in Beaver Falls and also attended school in Bird Island for
two years. After leaving school, Anthony began working in the
hardware store of Conklin and Clark in Bird Island, remaining there
until he was twenty years old. He then moved on to Long Prairie to
work for Richard Handy in his hardware and tin shop. After four
years, when he was twenty-four, he decided to go to St. Paul to take
a short business course and work in the manufacture of tin. He
remained in St. Paul for almost a year, and in 1888 moved to Morton
and began working for Keefe, Heing and McClure. Anthony was an
ambitious young man who had saved his money, and so in September of
the following year, 1889, he bought out the hardware store of J. M.
Johnson in Franklin, and changed the store's name to Poss Hardware.
In 1895 he took his brother-in-law, Charles Freeman in as a partner,
and this parnership lasted until 1915 when it was dissolved by mutual
consent. Poss Hardware is now owned and operated by Anthony's oldest
son, Harold, and it is one of the oldest active businesses in
Franklin.
While Anthony, or as he was affectionately known to his many friends,
Tony, worked in Morton during the year 1888, he met a young lady,
Mary Ann Brown, who was waiting table at the Railroad Hotel. Mary Ann
wanted to open a millinery Store, and no doubt it was Anthony, who
persuaded her to come to Franklin and open a store in the rear room
of Poss Hardware. Just when Mary Ann came to Franklin is not know,
but it is a fact that Anthony and Mary Ann were married in 1894.
Mary Ann Brown was born on July 5, 1865 in Tinwich (or as it is also
spelled, Tingwick) Province of Quebec, Canada. Tingwick is about
seventy-five miles south and west of the city of Quebec and eighty
miles north and east of Montreal. Arthabaska County in which Tingwick
is situated was the center of an area devoted almost exclusively to
farming. From the Prologue, we know that Mary Ann was the eldest
daughter and the second child of James Brown and Mary Anne Goggin,
and that the family migrated from Canada and finally settled on a
farm near Birch Cooley in Norfolk Township, Minnesota.
Anthony and mary Ann spent their entire lives in Franklin and the
following children were born to them; Irene, Harold, Edward,
Genevieve, Mary, John and Dorothy. All the children are still living
except Edward who was called to his reward on September 15, 1958.
After a long and happy life, Anthony died on november 12, 1951 at the
age of eighty-seven, and eight years later at the age of ninety-four,
his wife, Mary Ann joined him.

married a man by the name of Hiller. In 1873, the other two girls,
Catherine and Lena, followed Lizzie and Mary to Beaver Falls. Anthony
and Charles continued to live with their mother and stepfather until
1874, when they and their parents left Carolltown to join the girls
in Beaver Falls.
As Anthony was nearly ten years old when the family left
Pennsylvania, he had already started to school. He continued his
education in Beaver Falls and also attended school in Bird Island for
two years. After leaving school, Anthony began working in the
hardware store of Conklin and Clark in Bird Island, remaining there
until he was twenty years old. He then moved on to Long Prairie to
work for Richard Handy in his hardware and tin shop. After four
years, when he was twenty-four, he decided to go to St. Paul to take
a short business course and work in the manufacture of tin. He
remained in St. Paul for almost a year, and in 1888 moved to Morton
and began working for Keefe, Heing and McClure. Anthony was an
ambitious young man who had saved his money, and so in September of
the following year, 1889, he bought out the hardware store of J. M.
Johnson in Franklin, and changed the store's name to Poss Hardware.
In 1895 he took his brother-in-law, Charles Freeman in as a partner,
and this parnership lasted until 1915 when it was dissolved by mutual
consent. Poss Hardware is now owned and operated by Anthony's oldest
son, Harold, and it is one of the oldest active businesses in
Franklin.
While Anthony, or as he was affectionately known to his many friends,
Tony, worked in Morton during the year 1888, he met a young lady,
Mary Ann Brown, who was waiting table at the Railroad Hotel. Mary Ann
wanted to open a millinery Store, and no doubt it was Anthony, who
persuaded her to come to Franklin and open a store in the rear room
of Poss Hardware. Just when Mary Ann came to Franklin is not know,
but it is a fact that Anthony and Mary Ann were married in 1894.
Mary Ann Brown was born on July 5, 1865 in Tinwich (or as it is also
spelled, Tingwick) Province of Quebec, Canada. Tingwick is about
seventy-five miles south and west of the city of Quebec and eighty
miles north and east of Montreal. Arthabaska County in which Tingwick
is situated was the center of an area devoted almost exclusively to
farming. From the Prologue, we know that Mary Ann was the eldest
daughter and the second child of James Brown and Mary Anne Goggin,
and that the family migrated from Canada and finally settled on a
farm near Birch Cooley in Norfolk Township, Minnesota.
Anthony and mary Ann spent their entire lives in Franklin and the
following children were born to them; Irene, Harold, Edward,
Genevieve, Mary, John and Dorothy. All the children are still living
except Edward who was called to his reward on September 15, 1958.
After a long and happy life, Anthony died on november 12, 1951 at the
age of eighty-seven, and eight years later at the age of ninety-four,
his wife, Mary Ann joined him.

In 1909 the firm of Poss and Freeman rented out their vacuum cleaner
by the day - the easy way to clean the house without taking up the
carpets.

The firm of Poss and Freeman, one of the oldest firms in Franklin,
dissolved partnership in January 1915. Poss took over the hardware
and farm implement business and Freeman took the furniture and lumber
part of the business. The men were in partnership for 19 years.

In 1916 Anthony Poss installed a gas pump in front of his store.

In March 1917, A.J. Olin, Anthony Poss and A.S. Erickson went to
Washington D.C. to witness the inauguration of President Woodrow
Wilson.

Poss Hardware celebrated forty years of business in Franklin in 1931.
They held gigantic sales of merchandise, and the entire town joined
in the celebration held in the village hall. 		POSS Anthony (I6627)

5395 One of the most interesting stories revealed in the old Ipswich court
records involves the conviction of Benedict Jr. in 1682 for burglary
aboard a sloop. This incident was a profound embarrassment to his
father. Benedict Sr. submitted a lengthy written petition to the
quarterly session of the court seeking to defend his son against
conviction in May 1682. Benedict Sr. was ahead of his time, in a way,
in his use of defense which, with some embellishments, has become
popular in the latter half of the 20th century, known as the
"diminished capacity" defense. The profile presented, quite a
lengthy, and written in the first person, is of a father persistently
concerned about the value of education for his son, despite the son's
apparent dull-wittiness. This account shows that Benedict Sr. was
quite literate in an age when education among Englishman was rare.
Benedict Sr. painted a picture of his son as a dull-witted lad
hopelessly unable to learn to read despite the extraordinarily
painstaking efforts of his father and who was innocently led into
mischief by a Negro slave who was more cunning. His pleas for mercy
was in convincing to the court. Benedict Jr. was convicted of
" being with Stephen Crose's Negro aboard Crose's sloop, stealing
wine, sugar, and biscuit to the value of 36s". The court ordered
Benedict to pay half the treble damages to Crose and also to be
whipped.
In the summer of that same year, Benedict Jr. again got himself into
trouble with the law. In August 1682, Benedict Jr. was convicted in
Salem court, along with two other youths of stealing 37s in silver
which they took from a box from the house of Nathaniel Treadwell to
finance their plan to runaway from home. In July of 1682, 19 year old
Benedict Jr. along with John Yell and James Dunaway made a secret
agreement to abandon their Failes and leave town. They also took a
boat from Thomas Clerk and "a sayle and oare from Robert Cross". The
youths left the boat at York and went by land to Black Point, where
they were apprehended by Andrew Birdsley and brought back to the
great island in Pascataquay, and from there returned to Ipswich.
Benedict avoided a public whipping by paying a fine and his share.
His restlessness continued, and in September of 1688, he had wandered
north to the banks of the Royal river in what is now the town of
Yarmouth, Maine, but then called Westcustogo. He became involved in
the first bloodshed in the state of Maine in what came to be called,
"King Williams War". This involved a number of bloody outbreaks
between white man and Indians. The abundance of fish and game and
large stands of timber attracted the white man to this region. Yet
the Indians resented the encroachment into their homeland and
considered it a violation of treaties. Benedict was among those
involved in building a stockade against the Indians on the west side
of the river. On one fateful morning in Sept 1688, Benedict and a man
named Larabee and a few others were sent over from the block house
before the rest of the workmen to make preparations for the days
work. The Indians were lurking in ambush. With their faces smeared
with war paint, the Indians sprung from the bushes to attack. One of
the Indians gave Larabee a violent push. Larabee immediately lifted
his gun and shot the Indian dead. While he fired, a second Indian
seized Larabee and Benedict struck the Indian squarely on his
shoulder with the edge of his broard axe and the Indian fell to the
ground. The fight now broke into general chaos. The Indians
ultimately retreated with two captive men who they put to death by
torture back in their camp. The settlers fled the region, and it was
not repopulated with white people until 1713.
Benedict continued his travels and in 1690 Benedict Jr. enlisted in
Sir William Phip's expedition to Quebec as a member of Captain
Abraham Tilton's company. It is quite possible he was killed or taken
prisoner in the unsuccessful attempt to take the Canadian stronghold.
No further records on benedict Jr. are available. He apparently died
unmarried and childless. 		PULSIFER Benedict (Jr.) (I6864)
