5HEIR T0 CHAMPLAIN
We know almost nothing about the first 4 years of Marin Boucher and his family in New France, except that the pioneer is mentioned in Champlain’s will. According to the historian, E. Mitchell (a member of the Society of Canadian Writers, and the Historical Societies of Montreal and Boucherville), the founder of Québec certainly knew Boucher before his death. She states (6) that “the Commandant of Trois-Rivieres, MarcAntoine Bras-de-fer de Chateaufort, assumed his duties as interim governor immediately after the funeral. He presided at the reading of Champlain’s will-a will whose validity was to be contested (7)—inwhich a man called Marin was mentioned, and it concerns, we believe, Marin, relative of Gaspard: ‘I give to Marin, mason, living near the house of the Récollet Fathers, the last suit that I had made from material which I got at the store,” wrote Champlain.’ (8)
Marin Boucher must have greatly appreciated this legacy from Champlain, because we know how much our ancestors, who were for the most part very poor, attached importance to any clothing, be it also threadbare and worn out.
