This is an ancestor of my brother-in-law...

Additionally, I claim Metis descent through the Lejeune and Lambert families.

Could someone please contact me directly about affiliating with the rest of our families?

This is true. Now was Marguerite Nicolet married to Guillaume Adam related to Jean Nicolet? From my research it would appear that she came from the same area of France. Who were her parents ?

Could someone explain to me how Jean Nicolet could be the parent of Marguerite Nicolet who was born in 1642 in France married 1660 to Guillaume Adam (Laramee) in France and had Guillium b. 1662 in France. Every place lists Marguerite's parents as Jean and a Nippising Indian women. How did Marguerite get to France if she was born in Canada?

Re: Nicolet de Belleborne‘s marriage (county) to Sauvagesse Nipissirinienne, Marie-Madeleine Euphrosine Nicolet, Métis 1626-1698.

JanetBelson — 2010-07-25 21:37:49Z

As far as I know Euphronsine was the only enfant of the affair. She herself married twice. Metis was less of a registered "condition" than it was a cultural and social term that allowed halfbloods the ability to function in the Fur Trade up until the mid 1800s with the decline of the Fur Trade. In fact, Metis itself was a culture, as Metis would form their own towns and prosper in their knowledge of both Indian and French customs and languages. Metis could be a term used to record color on the census, but at the time of Euphronsine's birth in 1628, it was too early, with no government large enough, or powerful enough, to follow, record, and monitor every metis that was born between the natives and the traders. Hope this helps. For more information on the union refer to http://www.marieheleneparant.com/genealogy03.html or http://www.famille-prevot.fr/JeanNicolet/DocumentsNicoletBio....

Hello Cousin -- Euphrosine (Madeleine) was Jeans' daughter by Jeanne Nipissing (Bahmahmaadjimowin Giisis)b. abt.1625 she married Jean Leblanc then Elie Dussault Lafleur. Marguerite b. 1642 was Euphrosines' 1/2 sister by Jean and Marguerite Couillard. She married Jean Baptiste Legardeur Derepentigny. Our Marguerite I believe was born in France abt.1635. Jean was born 1n 1598. I know Jean had 2 brothers but I have found no proof of a sister, although some poeple believe that our Marguerite is his sister. Another mystery.Jean had a grandaughter Elisabeth Manitoukoue born 1642 by Euphrosine. We have Marie Manitoukoue b. abt. 1737 in our line. Are they somehow related? What paper work would you like?

I have a Euphrosine Madeleine Nicolet as Jean Nicolet`s daughter of him and a Nipissirian native woman in my family tree. She lived in Quebec city and stayed there and as a result I am her descendant.
I have the French genealogy paperwork that proves it.
I hope that helps. - Are we cousins?

This is driving me nuts. Did Marguerite Nicolet daughter of Jean Nicolet and a Nipissing Indian Woman (not the Marguerite that was born to Jean Nicolet and Marguerite Coullard) b. 1630 - 1640 go to France with Jean's brother, the priest, as a child, and marry Guillaume Adam (Laramee) in 1661?

This is a call out to all descendents of Jean Nicolet de Belleborne‘s marriage (county) to Sauvagesse Nipissirinienne, Marie-Madeleine Euphrosine Nicolet, Métis 1626-1698.

Times are changing in Canada. Under the Constitution Of Canada 1982, Metis are recognized as one of the three aboriginal peoples in Canada. We now have our aboriginal rights. Under the Constitution to be metis you have to have an aboriginal ancestor, self profess to be metis and to belong to a metis community.

As chief of my community, I am putting out this request for my relatives who are descendant of this grand mother or any other aboriginal grandmother to join our aboriginal community. The Metis of Canada are coming together we know who we are but we now have communal rights if you join a community.

This is not a fund raiser!!! This is a joining of families back together.

If you are interested in learning more please contact me at the e-mail address located in the print message screen.

I would be happy to send you a copy if you are interested.

LakeReflection — 2002-09-20 03:17:45Z

Charles is a fourth kid. He came to America with Jules. He married Alvina Sandoz in McLean County, IL in 1893. Bertha traveled over from Switzerland with Alvina as a companion/friend? They were going to be sister in laws. Bertha married my great grandfather, Charles Matthey in 1895. Charles Matthey had hooked up with the Nicolet brothers on their voyage over to America. My understanding from my aunt is that Jules went back to Switzerland and brought his bride back to America. I don't know when.

When my grandfather, Edmond Portner, arrived in this country from Switzerland the ship's manifest indicates he was joining his uncle, Jules Nicolet, in Cleghorn (Cherokee, Iowa). After reading the messages on this board, I see that Jules was married to Emma Portner so I'm assuming that Emma was the actual relative. I'm trying to trace the Portner line back into Switzerland and also trying to gather more info on Edmond. I know he farmed in the midwest most of his life. Knowing more about Jules might give me additional clues. Any info would be appreciated.

The story of the gun is correct, except that Jules pulled it on Ulysses. Please let me know if you have some information that shows my information is incorrect.

By the way, I am desended from Paul Nicolet, a son of Jules.

It seems that all of the Nicolets in the US are descended from Ulysses Elizabeth. What an amazing thing in such a huge country!
My grandmother remembers "Aunt Bertha" and "Aunt Lena" from her childhood. Her grandfather was Jules they were his sisters. (3 out of 12 kids altogether.)

2000-04-07 14:58:59Z

Jules Nicolet was my Grandmother's Grandfather. He was one of 12 kids. The story goes that Ulysses wasn't exactly a kind dad, and actually pulled a shotgun on one of his sons. The other kids pulled him away saved the life of young Jules! Just think - if he'd succeeded I wouldn't be writing this!

My grandmother actually knew "(great) Aunt Bertha" and "(great) Aunt Lena". Lena moved to Colorado after marrying a missionary. She has a book detailing all of them. I'd be glad to pass along info once I get it. (She Grandpa are going on vacation this week.)
Her line is as follows:
My grandmother: Phyllis Adele (Ernst) Pierce
Her father: Hans Ernst
Her mother: Emily Adele (Nicolet) Ernst
Her mother's father: Jules Nicolet
Her grandfather's father: Ulysses Nicolet

That's all I have so far.
