Certains chercheurs présument que la mère de Marie Olivier portait le nom de Ouchistaouichkoue, un nom typiquement algonquin, car celui-ci aurait servi à identifier Marie Olivier dans un registre de 1642, où elle serait marraine. Le registre en question n’a pas été repéré pour le moment. Tout porte à croire que Marie Olivier Sylvestre Manit8abe8ich serait donc Algonquine et qu’on l’associe à tort à la nation huronne, possiblement en raison de l’établissement de son père parmi les Hurons.^[1]

Biography

From the Relations des Jésuites: On the 14th of the same month, we baptized in our Chapel at Kebec, with the holy ceremonies of the Church, a little child a few months old; its parents had named it Ouasibiskounesout, and Monsieur Gand called it François. This poor little one was very sick, but God soon afterwards restored it to health. It's father's name was Mantoueabeouichit, and its mother's, Outchibahabanoukoueou. They have given [page 91] one of their children, a little girl, to sieur Olivier (Letardif), who cherishes her tenderly; he provides for her, and is having her brought up in the French way. If this child occasionally goes back to the Cabins of the Savages, her father, very happy to see his daughter well clothed and in very good condition, does not allow her to remain there long, sending her back to the house where she belongs. But to return to our little François. When his parents came back from the woods in the early Spring, Monsieur Gand, who is as charitable as possible to these poor barbarians, recognized his little godson; calling him by name, this poor little fellow answered him falteringly, but in so pretty a way,—he is indeed a very beautiful child,—that Monsieur Gand straightway had a [35] little dress made for him in the French fashion. As soon as he shall be in a condition to be taught, I hope we shall get him for instruction; his father and mother promised this when he was baptized. ^[2]

“Oueou”: It is said she was, born in about 1602, to an *Abenaki band living along the Bécancour River, Quebec. Oral histories, Jesuit Relations, historians, and others indicate that she is claimed as an ancestor by many Abenaki tribal members. Not much is known about her early life, but it is in Sillery, Quebec, where Outchibahanouk Oueou meets her future husband, Roch Manitoueabeouich. [*Abenaki peoples: As the white people encroached upon them, the Abenaki gradually withdrew from the coast of Maine, USA to New France (today Canada) and chiefly settled at Bécancour and Sillery, the latter being afterward abandoned by them for St. Francis, near Pierreville, Quebec. The Abenaki formed an early attachment for the French, chiefly through the influence of the missionaries, and carried on an almost constant war with the English until the fall of French power in America.212
