Marie-Isabelle Giraud

Marie GIRAUD arrived in Canada from Saintes, Saintonge in the summer of 1662 where she would mary Abel Turcotte a miller, who had arrived in Canada earlier in 1658..

According to various censuses, these are the jobs Abel Turcotte held to support his growing family after his marriage: miller (meunier) (1662, 1666, 1669, 1671), farmer of M. Lévesque (fermier de M.Lévesque) (1667), master flour maker and farmer (maître farinier et fermier) (1667, 1670, 1673, 1674, 1685)..

Four years after their marriage, they moved to the parish of Ste-Famille on Île d'Orléans. At that time, Abel Turcotte had four contract employed domestics. He seemed successful..

In 1668, Abel Turcotte acquired a concession of land on the Seigneurie of Argentenay, on the Île d'Orléans. He worked on the farm of Mgr. de Laval as a miller at fief Charny-Lirec. .
