  Notes	Occupation: Ursuline Nun (Oct 7, 1691, Domestic Nun) (Aug 5, 1694, Vows) 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.
