He arrived in New France on September 12, 1665 as part of the Regiment de Carignan, sent to counter the Iroquois threat. He belonged to Maximy Company. Most of the soldiers of the Maximy Company later returned to France. Julien stayed, and in 1667 he received a land grant from Monsignor de Laval, Master of Île d'Orléans. He established his home at St. Jean on Île d'Orléans in the upper village, where today the quay of St. Jean is situated. Julien received his nickname (dit name), Lafleur, as an army recruit, at the time of hazing. A soldier's nickname was the only name used officially while in the army. He was the son of Jacques Dumont & Marie Maubert, from France.

Between 1702 and 1704, Julien & Marie Madeleine moved to La Durantaye, where they lived the rest of their days. Julien died on May 17, 1715.
