Of particular interest to me are three persons on this tree. The first is of course Louis dit Le Sabotier Guertin but also two that were patriotes during the rebellions of 1837-38, François-Xavier Guertin and Étienne Guertin.
François-Xavier along with 57 others was deported to Australia.
Étienne, who was from Beloeil, died at the battle of Saint-Charles sur Richelieu in Quebec, Canada in 1837.
Also in this tree there are a few women that were "Filles du Roy". The Filles du Roy, or King's Daughters, were some 770 women who arrived in the colony of New France between 1663 and 1673, under the financial sponsorship of King Louis XIV of France. Their role was to marry and populate the colony.
