About Georgette Richer Richer

Georgette was a "filles du roi" or daughter of the King.

These women, known in French as the "fille du roi", agreed to travel to the new settlements in North America and marry a settler there in exchange for a 50 pound dowry from the French King. Of the nearly 1000 women who undertook the journey, about 800 made it to Canada.

They made contracts of marriage with the men who had originally settled the New World and usually married within a few days or weeks of the contract signing. Often the women broke the contracts, only to remake them or make new contracts with other men.

."Georgette RICHER of ST. Ursin de Chailly-sur-Armancon, Diocese of Autun, Burgundy, daughter of Jean RICHER and the deceased Leonarde BORNAY, married Francois DUPUIS 6 October 1670 at Quebec. Her dowry of 350 pounds included 50 from the king. She died 24 January 1700 at Laprairie at the age of 50." Source: THE KINGS DAUGHTERS, J. REISINGER, E.
