About Claude Blandina LeRoy
Birth: 1651 in Notre Dame Cathedral ,Fontenay, Maillezais, Vendee, France.
Death: FEB 1708 in Kingston, Ulster Co., New York area, Quebec Colony, New France.
According to researcher, Richard Smith, Claudette was a "Fille du Roi" ("Daughter of the King"). The "Filles du Roi" were single young women who were sent from France to New France (Quebec) as suitable brides for the soldier/settlers. The earliest French settlers in New France were soldiers who were encouraged to stay. However there was a shortage of women for them to marry and have children with. Thus the French King Louis XIV established the "Filles du Roi" program.
---------------------------
Beginning with departures from the port of La Rochelle, France on 19 Apr 1665, five troop ships and one supply ship left the French coast. A sixth troop ship, Le Breze, began the journey from the Antilles island in the West Indies. All of the seven ships arrived at Quebec City during the three-month period between 19 Jun 1665 and 14 Sep 1665. They carried approximately 1,200 men of the regiment. Additionally, it was from this port city that many of the estimated 768 women known as the Filles du Roi (Daughters of the King), set sail for Quebec during the period of 1663 to 1673.
