I am seeking information on the ancestors of Joseph Boucher. Here is what I know.
Joseph Boucher, Sr. was born in 1775. He married Marguerite Nostekeux (Nostekew?) in 1790. She was born in 1778 at Lac Ste. Anne (Alberta, Canada). Joseph was a freeman and survived on his trapping, trading and fishing. The term "freeman" means that he worked for himself. He was not under a contract with a company (Hudson's Bay, Northwest, etc.) and was therefore free to work where he wanted. Six children were recorded.
Children:
1. Joseph, Jr. born 1792; married Marguerite Dupuis in 1811;
died 1851.
2. Marguerite born 1794; married Pierre Lemay
3. Jean Baptiste born 1816.
4. Angele born 1819.
5. Cecile born 1827; married Antoine Cardinal in 1850.
6. Louise born 1830; married Antoine Auger.
I am willing to share all the Boucher family information I have.
