“Barbe Perrin had married René Huguet in Lachine in mid-October 1680. The couple had three children. The youngest child died in January 1689, before he was four months old. Twenty-two-year-old Barbe was abducted that ill-fated morning in August, along with five-year-old André and three-year-old Anne-Françoise, her two remaining children, and taken to an Iroquois village in upper New York.[ 687] Barbe Perrin spent some five years in captivity in Iroquois country. When she was released in 1694, she was pregnant and had a two-year-old daughter with her. Thierry-Pierre Laurin, another French captive, had fathered both children.[ 688] Marie-Anne Laurin, born among the Iroquois of northern New York on November 1, 1692, was baptized on July 27, 1694.[ 689] Barbe gave birth to a son named Jean in Montréal on December 13, 1694. However, the infant died the next day. Of the two children taken captive with Barbe, André Huguet died in captivity. Anne-Françoise Huguet, eight years old in the summer of 1694, remained with her Indigenous family.[ 690] Barbe’s husband,
René Huguet, had somehow survived the massacre at Lachine in 1689, but two years later, in the early morning hours of June 26, 1691, Iroquois ambushed and killed him as he worked in his wheat fields at Lachine. René’s brother-in-law, Jean-Baptiste Gourdon, also lost his life that morning. Both had come to New France as Carignan-Salières soldiers and had married and settled at Lachine. Also killed in the attack were Jean Guignard, a laborer, and four soldiers from Fort Rolland who were serving as armed guards for the men in the fields.”
