Other Ancestors:
Pierre Dufour said Latour
Alfred Dufour from Calais
André-Léon Dufour from Havre
Hilaire Dufour from Havre
Jean-Baptiste Dufour from Le Havre, France
Jean-Baptiste Dufour said Montpellier
Jean Dufour Violles said Gascogne
This second Pierre Dufour, came from Arras in Artois, he took the Latour
nickname.
He got married to Geneviève Guignard said Brillant said Saintour (St-Ours
village on the Richelieu valley inspired probably his nickname) in 1722 in
Montreal, he then settled at Terrebonne and his progeny proliferated there.
This lineage also seems to have changed its name of Dufour, since it is
difficult to list representatives of it beyond the end of the 19th century.
Son of Jean-Baptist-Eusèbe and of Florine Leclerc, Alfred married Béatrice
Carpentier at Notre-Dame, Montreal. His son Armand also get married at
Notre-Dame and Georges his grandson gets married to Germaine Fournier at St-Hyacinthe.
Nothing more on this lineage.
Originally from the Havre, he gets married at Charlottown, PEI. Nothing else on this Dufour.
From Guernsay, his son Peter-Pierre emigrated to Missouri, USA, and then in California.
Jean-Baptiste Dufour from Le Havre, France
Jean-Baptiste, son of Pierre and Étiennette Michel married Jeanne Paquet-Bacquet, Notre-Dame of Quebec, 1738.
The
couple had 4 children.
Jean-Baptiste
is a trader-merchant.
Two of his
daughters get married, one at St-Michel of Bellechasse in 1761, the other at
Quebec in 1769.
Then we found nothing else! Therefore presumably the family returned to France
after the 1760 conquest . Perharps, his descents have changed their name. We
don't know!
Jean-Baptiste Dufour said Montpellier
Originally from Nîmes in Languedoc, diocese of Montpellier (from where his nickname), Antoine-Jean-Baptite Dufour, son of Antoine and Jeanne Meunier gets married twice at Lavaltrie: first with Thérèse Laniel in 1760, then with Louise Harnois in 1763. And then we found nothing else. Surely his descents changed their name &.
Jean Dufour Violles said Gascogne
Copied in the ''Recueil de la Bourgeoisie Ancienne'', this lineage, where we
find a lot of honourable personalities, of physicians or lawyers, didn't
emigrate in America.
We didn't go deeper into our researches..
