Immigration: 1657, File a Marier. (a mark above the "a", that I don't know how to do)


Catherine was a Filles à Marier, arriving in Canada in 1657.

The Filles à Marier or 'marriageable girls," were 262 brave and adventurous women who were the first single women to set foot in the French colony since its return from the English in 1632. Sent by relatives and religious organizations or enlisting on their own account, these women did benefit from a paid passage and dowry drawn from the King's treasury (as did the Filles du Roi). They were true pioneers and heroines. They left their homes in France, never to return again, and found new lives in the New World.
