Jean Benèche, the first ancestor in the country
of the families Benèche said Lavictoire, emigrated to
Canada as a soldier circa 1758. At the time, all the soldiers as they enter Army regiment receive the baptism of
by which they are given a nickname. That is how our ancestor received Lavictoire. Born in St-Jean, diocese of Agen, France, Jean-Baptiste, son of Jean-Baptiste Benèche
and Aline Evabut, was married in Ste-Genevieve,
Pierrefonds on May 4, 1761, to Mary Magdalene
Lariviere, daughter of Jacques Rivière and
Charlotte Alary. This couple had six boys.
From the union of Pierre and Felicite Pilon, born
Jean-Baptiste, who was the first Benèche to settle in Clarence Creek. Around 1855, the family Benèche-Lavictoire
settled on Lot 3, Conc. 5, now Landry Road. Across Lot 3 Conc. 6, Eloi is established. Jean-Baptiste acquires four batches of 70 acres in Concession 7, where he established
his four sons, Honore, Athanasius, and Fabien Jean-Baptiste. Their offspring is very numerous. Clarence Creek is the place where there are as many descendants
Lavictoire.
The chart on the right is the descendancy of the immigrant ancestor, with the number off to the side being the generation. It appears, at the 5th generation, that they've added siblings in the middle and right columns
