Donelda Dupont Family Tree Home Page
The ancestry report uses 'Ahnentafel' numbering. This means that the numbers for a person's parents will be twice as large as that person's number. For example, if a woman's number is 15, her father will be number 30, and her mother will be 31. Her child will be number 7.Fille du Roi ( King's Daughters) is written behind some of the womens names. Between 1663- 1673 the French King sent 1000 young women to New France to become wives of the men living in New France (Canada). The men had to marry or they were not permitted fishing or hunting rights, which of course meant they would not survive. The King was concerned that New France was not growing as rapidly as he would like to see the population increase.
