The two marriages of Anne Archambault
Michel Chauvin and Jean Gervaise

Very soon after her arrival in New France, July 27, 1647 or July 29, 1647, according to sources consulted, Anne Archambault, then aged 16, married her first husband Michel Chauvin, son of Gabriel Chauvin and Marie Drouard, the church of Notre-Dame, Quebec, .
Both bride and groom had been married before the notary Bancheron, July 22, 1647. Unfortunately for Anne, some time later, in Montreal, her marriage to Michel Chauvin is declared invalid since he is found guilty of bigamy.
He had left a first wife alive and well in France, Louise Delisle. The marriage of Michael and Louise was celebrated in 1636 in the province of Maine France.

After the cancellation of her first marriage and after the birth of her first child, a girl named Charlotte Chauvin, April 5, 1651, Anne Archambault married her second husband, Jean Gervaise, son of Urbain Gervais and Jeanne Pebise. The ceremony of Anne's second marriage took place in Montreal, February 3, 1654. The couple were married three weeks after the religious ceremony, March 25, 1654, before the notary Lambert Closse.
