About Jean Morisset
Among the five "Morisset "ancestors coming from France at the beginning of the colony, Jean Moricet is the first to arrive. In the winter of 1661, Jean Moricet left his parents, Paul and Mathurine (Guillois) and his home in the parish of St. Giles, borough of Surgeres, near La Rochelle, France, to start a new life in what is now known as Quebec, Canada. He likely arrived at the Côte de Beaupré, just outside of Quebec City, which was then the heart of New France.
The son of Pol Moricet and Mathurine Guillois, Jean Moricet is born on August 18, 1641 in the parish from St-GiIles-of-Surgères, évêché of the Rochelle in Aunis. At 19 years of age, he leaves his native land for New-France, probably on one of the following four ships: le Taureau, la Maria, le St-Père, or la Marguerite which arrive in Quebec in the summer of 1661.
Jean Moricet receives the sacrament of confirmation with 16 others from the hands of Msgr. De Laval at Beauport on April 11, 1662. He spends the next three years some shares to New France, and tries to accumulate a little money to be able to be established there. On July 16, 1666 (Vachon Clerk’s Office) he buys from Pierre Loignon on the Island of Orleans a plot of land of 2 arpents(with fontage) with a house and a barn for the sum of 400 livres tournois. This land is located on batches 38 and 39 of the parish of Ste-Famile on the Island of Orleans, and is occupied today by "the Marquis and Morency families at approximately 4429 Royal Path, almost opposite the Basilica of Ste-Anne De Beaupr‚. Harldy two years after the acquistion of his land, it is surely in the launch or racket that Jean visits his future bride who lives in Beauport. On July 10, 1690 (Clerk’s Office N. Catrin) Jean Moricet buys from Spirit Carbonneau and Marguerite Landry on 2nd ground of 1 ½ arpent of frontage located at 9 arpents in the western south of its principal ground. Less than four years later, February 13, 1694, Jean obtains a receipt on the balance for his new acquisition. The majority of the inhabitants of the Island of Orleans also practice fishing; it is learned that on June 7, 1694, Jean Moricet (53 years old) accompanied by three other men go in the St-Laurent gulf to fish cod on a boat of approximately 16 tonneaux, pertaining to associated Francois Frechette, Gilles Couturier, says Labonte, Claude Guyon, Antoine Bilodeau and Gervais Beaudoin. Jean Moricet, used to the hard life of clearer and fisherman, dies on August 15, 1699, three days before reaching his 58 years. He was buried the following day in the parish cementary. The business goes well for Jean Morisset who will obtain on February 17, 1671 receipt from Pierre Loignon on the balance of his land of 2 arpets with frontage. With the death of her husband, in spite of several children having died at a young age (only 8 children out of 14 will reach adulthood) Jeanne Choret must provide for the needs of 4 children: Amie 13 years, Gencien 12 years, Nicolas 7 years, Elisabeth 4 years. Fortunately for Jeanne, her daughter, Marie-Jeanne, married only three weeks to L‚onard Clement "will occupy herself with her husband to put forward the ground to nourish all this world." Each child inherited part of the land, and it is Gencien later who purchases the paternal ground. Jeanne Choret dies on Sept 26, 1718 at Ste-Famille on the Island of Orleans, at the age of 65 years and 9 months, and is buried the following day. Any gate to believe that it lived in her Gencien son. As of year 1666 for Jean Moricet (24 years old) and since his marriage for Jeanne Choret (17 years old) we note that these tow aVeux always lived on their land in the Island of Orleans where it is believed that they probably lived happy in spite of the hard trade of clearer, which inspires in us a large respect and much of pride. Biblography: Dictionary Tanguay, Droiun and J‚tte. Please note the different spellings of Morisset.
