Biography
Hélène was the daughter of Thomas Nicolas and Angélique Thomas. She was born on May 1, 1860 and was baptised the following day in L'Isle-Verte.[1] The baptism record indicates that they were members of the Township Viger First Nation. The Viger Maliseet community is the only Maliseet community in Quebec. It has access to a territory located in the Whitworth Township, close to Rivière-du-Loup, and to a tiny lot in Cacouna, making it the smallest aboriginal reserve in all of Canada.
The 1861 Canada Census shows "Helene" at one year of age.[2]
