CLAUDE BOUCHARD DIT "LE PETIT CLAUDE"

Tailor, like his father, Claude Bouchard is certainly born near the Auberge du Cheval Blanc in Notre-Dame-de-Vair, as his companion and friend, Julien Fortin. Upon his arrival in New France in 1650, he obtained a land Beaupré. On 25 May 1654, still in Beaupré, at Louis Gagné and Marie Michel held the wedding ceremony of Claude Bouchard and Louise Gagné, called Ige January 21, 1642, she is 12 years old. First established in Beaupré between Caron and Pierre Gagne, Claude Bouchard alienated his land in favor of Louis Guimont and Jean Crenel on l October 1657 before Mr. Aubert and went to settle on a concession of 40 acres received from Sieur Le Tardif. Active enterprising as we said the Archangel Father, "the little Claude" was in 1658, a farmer of the Lords of Beaupré in St. Charles Cape Tourmente. Alas, like Julien Fortin, this is the time when the Mohawks sacked Tadoussac and its surroundings. Claude Bouchard takes refuge in Château-Richer with his. There, Charles Aubert of Chesnaye representative of the Lords of Beaupré, concedes April 11, 1652, on 3 acres a mile deep where he will have to build a house in the year. A year later, September 8, 1663, he bought the land from its neighbor, Nicolas Way to 255 pounds.

That of 1681 located in Baie Saint-Paul Dupré between Pierre and Ignace Gagné; it has 10 cattle and 6 acres under cultivation. A final concession should be given to Claude Bouchard August 2, 1694 by Monseigneur de Laval, Bishop of New France.
