About Antoine Cassé dit Lacasse (Français)

Antoine Cassé - Jane Goodrich, derived from “Our French Canadian Ancestors” by Thomas Laforest Vol 1.
Antoine Casse dit Lacasse, was originally from Anjou, a French province serving as the gateway to Brittany, located between Maine and Poitou. He was baptized about 1641 at the Church of St Pierre in Doue, now Doue-la-Fontaine, Maine-et-Loire, District of Saumur. This church, with a very plain exterior, is remarkable for its three naves built during diverse epochs.
On Wednesday, October 14, 1665 at Chateau-Richer, the notary Claude Aubert prepared a contract of marriage between Antoine and his bride to be, Francoise Pitye. She was the daughter of Francois Pitye and Claudine Poullet from the parish of St Nicholas des Champs in Paris. Present at the signing were Romain Trepagner, Surgeon Francois Fortin, and his wife Marie Jolliet, Charles Lefrancois and others. Because of an oversight the contract was not entered into the records until the following March 28th. Nevertheless, the marriage took place the same day the contract was signed, Father Thomas Morel gave the nuptial benediction after having dispensed with the reading of the two banns.
On June 16 1666, Antoine bought some property from Jean Baron, an associate of Mathurin Tessier. This land was three arpents of river frontage located at Saint-Pierre, Ile d’Orleans between Robert Jeanne and Mathurin Chabot. It was formerly the land of ancestor Savard, and the price was 295 livres. Barthelemy Verreau was witness to this transaction. However, on July 13, 1667, Antoine signed it over to the two brothers, Adrien and Michel Isabel, before witnesses.
On December 4, 1666, Antoine broke a lease on a farm, a lease he had made with Antoine Berson, now dead. Berson’s widow, Marguerite Belanger, accepted the cancellation and rreposeded her property in the fief of Lothainville, today’s L’Ange-Gardien. She had to give him 215 livres in compensation and “a grey cloak that the said Casse vowed to have had and received from the master” She allowed him to keep the house and kitchen until next May; also a place in the shed to put ” his part and portion of the grain”. Such compensation leads us to conclude that Antoine must have lived there for several years. The grey cloak- did it belong to the late Berson? Our man seemed to think so, no doubt it was made in France.
David Letourneau, another ancestor, miller of the seigneurie of Beauport, but resident on the Ile d’Orleans, decided to sell his land to Lacasse. According to the deal, concluded on August 15, 1667, David vacated a property located on the south coast of the island, next to that of Jean Letourneau and Jean Grignon, for the sum of 200 livres payable in two installments. The seller kept for himself ” only those parts which are necessary for the grain milling process of said habitation” because they could be useful to his son, Jean. After one year to the day, Jeanne Barilo, his wife, ratified the sale.
On Wednesday, November 2, 1667, Antoine would consent to assign “Jean Prevost of the city of Rouen come this present year to this country” to Jacques Ratte, resident of the island. It seems that Antoine had agreed to take this immigrant for four years. And another matter, on December 5, Roamin Trepagner admitted to owing Antoine 19 livres and 10 sols.
Antoine on March 22, 1669, still lived on the Beaupre coast. In order to pay the sum of 144 livres for merchandise received and delivered, Antoine agreed to pay back his creditor, Bertrand Chesnay, Seigneur of Lothainville, by Saint Michel’s Day. He was to satisfy this debt “in money or in pelts.” Was Antoine a part-time fur trader? The witness to this notorial act was named Jean Casse. Could this have been a relative? Jean Casse was 35 years old in 1667 and a former domestic of Charles Bazire. A Poitevin, he married Magdeleine Plouard, a Breton, on November 22, 1667 at Chateau-Richer. This couple returned to France after which we lose trace of them.
The 24th of the same month, Antoine asked Letourneau to accept 100 planks valued at 45 livres as a deduction from his debt. Robert Anest made these planks from pine wood and they were good and saleable. He had traded them to Lacasse for a fat pig.
Antoine and Francoise settled down on the island toward the end of 1669. It is certain that Lacasse lived on the island on February 14, 1670, because from there he promised to deliver on the wharf at Quebec, with Pierre Dufresne 500 planks to Jean B. Patoullet, for a price of forty livres.
The following April, Claude Charron, wealthy merchant of Quebec, sold a five year old brown cow to Lacasse. The latter had to remit eighteen livres worth of salted butter in good condition for each of three years. If perchance, the poor beast had to give up her life because of the negligence of her adopted father, the latter was to pay half her value. He had to be poor to accept such conditions!
The follow several years of silence. On January 18, 1677, Lacasse sold his land on the south shore of the Island with all that was on it, to Pierre Bissonnet, for 500 livres. Up until the sale, Jean Letourneau and Francois Dumas were his neighbors. For the first time, we discover the well-lettered signature of our ancestor next to that of Nicolas Gauvreau. The contract was made at Quebec by notary Pierre Duquet.
Our ancestor was always attracted to the south shore. From the Beaupre coast he moved to the Island, then into today’s parish of St-Laurent, then on to Beaumont. It was there on July 1, 1678, where Father Thomas Morel baptized his daughter, Charlotte.
In 1672, Charles Couillard had obtained the seigneurie of Beaumont from Talon. According to the census of 1681, Antoine was one of fourteen colonists established on this territory . He owned a gun, three head of cattle, and eight arpents of cleared land. On the Beaupre coast in 1667, he had three beasts, fourteen arpents of worthwhile land and a hired hand: obviously he had not improved his position. Did Antoine get this new bit of land on credit? Perhaps, because we note that he obtained the property of four arpents in Frontage on June 14, 1682, but it was not until 1699 that it was officially conceded to him.
In those times one went to Mass at Point Levy. For special occasions, the manor house of the seigneur served as a chapel. It was there on August 9, 1681, that Monsiegneur de Laval confirmed several people, among whom were the fifteen year old Marie Casse and her twelve year old brother Joseph.
Lacasse owned, in company with Michel Mailloux-de-la-Durantaye, a beautiful boat complete with sails and ground tackle. Francois Frichet bought it on July 18, 1683 for the sum of 129 livres. He acted in the name of Pierre Lereau and Pierre Ducharme.
In 1687 Pierre Bissonett, now a farmer of Durantaye, left the land he had bought from Lacasse, with the half arpent of frontage he had added to it. Two years later on March 13, 1689, Jean Jouanne bought it for 340 livres.
On March 28, 1686 John Adam, in the name of his Seigneur conceded “three arpents of land in width and forty in depth” in order to enlarge the property of Antoine. The latter was not able to clear it, moreover he had to pay the seigneurial rents. Therefore, On June 1, 1699, he decided to abandon his concession.
Antoine and Francoise on August 26, 1702 had come to the end of their rope. “Desiring especially to spend the rest of their days in peace and tranquility, in order to better care for their health”, they made a donation to their son, Charles. This heir became owner of two steers, two cows, one fourteen year old mare with her four month old colt, and half of the coastal land to the northeast. In return the son was expected to feed, clothe, house, and to care for his parents until their deaths and afterward, to have thirty Requiem Masses said for the repose of their souls. At Quebec, the baliff Etienne Maranda signed this donation as witness with notary Chamberlain.
