Biography

Marguerite was born about 1751, likely in Chepoudy. ^[1] Her parents were François Savoie & Marguerite Thibodeau. ^[2]

Marguerite and her family suffered many hardships during the Grand Dérangement. In 1755 her father François Savoie was deported without his family to Georgia aboard the "Prince Frederick". Unfortunately, he died in New York and was never reunited with his family. ^[3]

Meanwhile, her mother Marguerite Thibodeau and her children fled to Île Saint-Jean (now Prince Edward Island) like many women who were separated from their husbands. However living conditions were difficult there and food was scarce. From where they sought refuge in Canada, Nouvelle-France (now Quebec). They left the island by boat in July 1756, possibly the Dondonnais, with 215 passengers, and disembarked at the port of Québec on 13 August 1756. Travelling with Marguerite were her children Simon, Joseph, Marguerite, Marie, François and Louise. A few years later, they settled in Rivière-du-Loup (now Louiseville). ^[4]

She married Guillaume Aubuchon Desalliers Dulac on 26 January 1767 in Berthierville (Ste-Geneviève-de-Berthier). ^[1][5]
