The Treaty of Breda restored Acadia to France.  Paris largely ignored Acadia, and Quebec's war with the Iroquois left little time for Acadia concerns.  The colonists of Port Royal expanded to establish colonies at Grand Pre, Piziquid (Windsor, Acadia ( Nova Scotia), Cobequid (Truro, Acadia ( Nova Scotia)) and Beaubassin (New Brunswick-Acadia ( Nova Scotia) border).  They are living like true republicans, not acknowledging royal or judicial authority.  They became a new culture of people called the Acadians.  Their natural abundance freed them from daily drudgery, and outsiders considered them lazy, obstinate, ignorant (few could read or write), yet say they have great hospitality are content and practical.  The Acadians would suffer for the actions of the Quebec French against the English.

Rene Robert Cavelier de La Salle (1643-1687) arrived in New France and is granted a signatory at Lachine by the Sulpicians.

The Jesuits believe the upper town of Kebek (Quebec) is of importance only on account of the churches and religious houses.

April:   The Iroquois Nation sued for a peace that was to last for approximately twenty years.  Four hundred soldiers elected to stay in New France, most settled along the Richelieu and St. Lawrence Rivers as a buffer to the Iroquois.  Charlesbourg, seven kilometers north of Fort Quebec, was created by (I)-Jean Talon (1625-1694), the Intendant at the time, to reduce the population pressure on Fort Quebec.  Three separate communities called Bour Royal, Bourg La Reine and Bourg Talon have erected forty houses.  A shrewd plan to make these new villages easy of defense, the tracts of land for individual use cut in triangle shapes.  The houses built at the narrow angle where the tips of all the tracts came together for security against attack.  Shipbuilding was introduced by (I)-Jean Talon (1625-1694), and by 1667, the building of six ships employed three hundred and fifty men.  The Viceroy de Alexandre de Prouville de Tracy, d-1670, is returned to France.

October 24:  Quebec, marriage Barthelemy Tesson to Jeanne Levasseur, a Kings Daughter, making her the 5th of his 6th wives 4 of whom are still in France.

October 27:   One hundred and nine (109) young ladies (Filles du Roi) arrived in Quebec from Dieppe and La Rochelle; 84 from Dieppe, 25 from La Rochelle.  Only 15-20 were from good families, several are real young ladies and well brought, up according to (I)-Jean Talon (1625-1694).  He had requested 50 from good families.  The term young ladies could include girls from 12 to 30 years of age.  Real young ladies must suggest less than 12 years of age?  This shipment of girls arrived in poor condition, being badly fed and robbed of half their clothing.  (I)-Jean Talon (1625-1694) tried to charm them out of their sadness and helped them regain their vigor and plumpness.  He did this to ensure early marriage and to prevent this becoming an obstacle to sending young ladies next year.

Quebec birth of illegitmate Jacques Boucault, mother Jeanne Marguerite Boucault, (Tanguay puts her birth as 1661 but this must be an error), Fille du Roi. father not know, Jeanne married Louis Colombe

The king of France Louis XIV offered 150 livres to Indian girls to marry Frenchmen.

(II)-Marie Francoise Froget, Metis daughter (I)-Nicolas Froget dit Despatis, b-1620 and (II)-Madeleine Martin, Metis; married Maurice Pasquier. 

Les Filles du Roi, most listed their place of birth as Paris but this was not necessarily true.   Charitable institutions, where they received and housed orphans and poor girls who were the primary target sources.  They were mostly orphans and came from Normandie, Aunis, Poitou, Champagn, Picardy, Orleans and Beauce.  The following Alsale, Dauphine, Provence, Lauguedoc, Rousillon, Bearu, Gascory and county of Foix would not participate, however some claimed to be from some of these locations.  We assume they were French but Moor, Portuguese, German and Hollandaise to name a few, were included.  There was an Indian nation of Brazil or Moorish nation, born in Brazil listed as Fille du Roi.   Most are orphans, some were not and some had already given birth to a child.  It is likely some savages, were included who were sent to France for education and eventual marriage to Quebec Frenchmen.  They argue these girls were sent to Paris, Bordeaux, Tours and La Rochelle.  However deception was not uncommon.  All Fille du Roi arrived Quebec but some went on to Trois-Rivieres and Montreal.  City raised girls were not desired as they were considered lightheaded and lazy.  Some girls were as young as 13 years.  Good virtue was a perquisite but easy virtue and boisterous, rebellious nature did make it into their numbers.  Only 11% of Fillies du Roi had lost both parents.

Marie de I'lncarnation, mother superior of the Ursuline convent at Quebec wrote: "From now on, we only want to ask for village girls who are as fit for work as men, experience having shown that those who are not raised [in the country] are not fit for the country."   She also wrote this year "We have Francized several young savage woman, both Huron and Algonquin, who we then married to Frenchmen and they are getting along very well together.  There is one in particular who knows how to read and write perfectly, both in her native Huron and in French.  No-one can tell her apart or be convinced that she was born a savage".  "For this purpose, Mgr our Prelate, has taken a great number of them, all dressed like French people and are taught to read and write as in France". 

(II)-Nicolas Volant de St. Claude, b-1668, Metis, died January 26, 1703, Quebec, son (I)-Claude Volant de St. Claude, b-1636 and (II)-Francoise Radisson, Metis. b-1636: married Marguerite Godfroy: married July 30, 1696, Quebec, Genevieve Niel  

Marie Sauvagesse b-1668 a Micmac, died August 19, 1738 Ste Anne de la Pocatiere married to Francois Valo.

The King of France wants the Savages children brought up in the French manner of life, in order to civilize them.  It was noted the French have as many as 15-16 children whereas the Savages have 2-3 children.

As a result of a suggestion from the Jesuit, (I)-Jean Talon (1625-1694) saw to the building of the first brewery in St. Charles, a section of Fort Quebec, that could produce four thousand hogs-heads of beer annually.  Father Francois Le Mercier wrote that this would force a decrease in the use of intoxicating drinks. Moreover, it will keep in the country, the money now sent to buy much liquor in France.  It will use the super-abundance of grain.  The population of New France is 6,282 persons.

Father Gabriel Sagard urged the Wendat toward the virtues of chastity.  The Wendat asked that if chastity is such a fine thing, why did not all the French Christians practice it?  Father Gabriel Sagard commenced pressure on the Intendant.  This is the same priest who said Etienne Brule (1592-1632) was much addicted to women.  The Intendant (I)-Jean Talon (1625-1694) responded to the clerical pressure and forbade bachelors to hunt, fish or trade with the Natives.  The Jesuit, to this time had been focusing their missionary attention on the Wendat (Huron) without much success.  They began their campaign against the Algonkin for the first time this year.

This year, 78 girls arrived in New France from France that included a Moor, Portuguese, German and Dutch.  Many of these girls are town girls little or not at all prepared to work on the land.  Some girls are drawn from the General Hospital in Paris and have a considerable inheritance.  It is noteworthy that only 41% or 250 of 606 Filles du Roi marriages received a dowry granted by the King.  Only 5 received 100 livres as promised, and 2 received 200 livres.

New France no longer wish to ask for only Country Girls (Filles du Roi), as capable of working as men are.  Experience has shown that those who have not been raised to it are not suitable here.  Therefore, Anne Gasnier (1611-1698) was chosen to go to France to screen future young ladies.

Sault Saint Louis, later called Caughnanaga, is established when Father Pierre Raffeix (1633-1724) a Jesuit, invited Ieven Oneida and Mohawk to settle on Jesuit lands across the river from the Island of Montreal.  Other Indian settlements include Sillery, Cap de la Madeleine, Lorette and Saint Francois near Lac St. Pierre.  The rules are strict.  Drunkenness is punishable by imprisonment, forfeit of any lands held and expulsion.  Daily prayers are required.  The priests scrutinize every aspect of daily life.  Self-flagellation, sleeping on a bed of thorns and other masochistic practices are endorsed.  Frontanac claimed that the Jesuits sought to isolate and control the Indians rather than follow the Royal Policy of assimilation.

Marie de I'Incarnation, foundress of the Ursuline Order in New France (1639), wrote:  "We have observed that of a hundred that have passed through our hands we have scarcely civilized one.  We find docility and intelligence in these girls but, when we are least expecting it, they clamber over our walls and go off to run with their kinsmen in the woods, finding more to please them there than in all the amenities of our French house."  It is amazing that the Recollects, Jesuits and now the Ursuline have all failed in their attempts to Christianize and civilize the Savages.  It is hard to believe the the French religious had not rationalized that maybe the French were neither civilized nor Christianized.  The Jesuit introduced physical punishment of children, intolerance of other religious beliefs, intolerance of other cultures and were very poor in personal hygiene; only bathing once a year.  They offered the French/Catholic yoke vs. freedom, they offered eternal fire and damnation vs. love and understanding.  The Jesuits believed that a nomadic life was contrary to the laws of the Roman Catholic Church and incompatible with Christian life.  The early Jesuits were called wa-mit-ig-oshe or men who wave a piece of wood over their heads.

Although Jean Talon, Intendant boasted that New France had produced a surplus of wheat.  The poor peasants would toss manure into the St. Lawrence River than use it to fertilize their fields.  They exhausted the soil by failing to practice crop rotation.  The did not feed their cattle properly and instead of raising cows and sheep, they preferred to keep horses for joyriding.  The potato didn't become a staple food in Quebec until the 1800's.
