Marie Pomponnelle & Nicolas Petit dit Laprée
Marie Pomponnelle
Marie Pomponnelle or Pouponnelle, recorded as Fauconnelle in the 1681 census; she is named Françoise Depersac at her daughter Françoise’s marriage, an obvious clerical error.
Marie was born around 1630 (36 years old in 1666, 28 in 1667, 50 in 1681 according to censuses), daughter of Jean Pomponnelle and Michelle Boulet, in the village of Longèves in Aunis (Charente-Maritime), diocese of La Rochelle.[1]
It is not known under what circumstances Marie came to New France or on which ship. Her first recorded presence in the registers is her marriage contract in July 1656. At her marriage contract, she was assisted by Pierre Boucher sieur de Grosbois and his wife Jeanne Crevier, among others. It is reasonable to believe that she was hired by Pierre Boucher, as others were, including Marie’s future husband, but no documents have been found to confirm this. She is counted among the Filles à marier (Marriageable Girls).

Nicolas Petit dit Laprée and Marie Pomponnelle signed a marriage contract before the notary Séverin Ameau on July 24, 1656.[2][3][4]
On August 17, 1656, in Trois-Rivières, Father Jacques de Laplace of the Society of Jesus celebrated the marriage between Nicolas Petit dit Laprée, son of Nicolas Petit and Catherine Anceline, from the parish of Gay-d’Aleray in Aulnis, and Marie Pomponnelle, daughter of Jean Pomponnelle and Michelle Boulet, from the village of Longèves in Aulnis. The witnesses were sieur Boucher, sieur de Saint-Quentin, and Séverin Ameau.[5]
