Joseph-Robert Marie Lévèsque

Joseph Lévesque was born December 11, 1684, and baptized on January 6, 1685, at Rivière-Ouelle. His baptism is the second act recorded in the Rivière-Ouelle church register. His godfather was Joseph Renaud, from whom his father purchased the lands in 1692, and his godmother, Marie Gobeil, wife of Pierre Hudon, a neighbor from the other side of the river. Joseph married Marie-Angélique Meneux, daughter of the late Jacques Meneux and Marguerite LePreuvier, on November 16, 1704, at Rivière-Ouelle. He inherited the southwest eight acres of the paternal land and consequently had his brother, Pierre-Joachim, as a neighbor. The couple had 10 children; five sons and five daughters. Joseph died at the age of 70 on February 12, 1755, a few years before his wife Angélique who died March 9, 1759, year of war.
