1926. Pierre II dit Descouteaux LEFEBVRE-CH35-6
. BERNIER
Pierre II came to New France, c. 1640. His presence was first noted at Trois-Rivieres on ll Apr 1643 in a legal case. He lst settled near the mouth of the Gentilly River. At time time of his arrival, it was related that he was already married in France to Jeanne Aunois, but it is more likely that they were married at Trois-Rivieres about 1646. No records have been found of this event.
The Journal of Jesuits recorded that on 4 July 1648, Pierre II was captured by the Iroquois, where several Frenchmen were killed and at least two taken
as prisoners. After 3 months, Pierre escaped and returned to his home.
Pierre was the founder of the oldest Lefebvre family in America and was counted as a notable of Trois-Rivieres. He was a land clearer, builder, mayor, surveyor, church warden and arbiter. He was also a pioneer citizen of Cap-de-la-Madeleine.Father Archange Godbout concludes: "This worth citizen made his last testament at his home on 16 July 1668. The loss of the registries of Cap-de-la-Madeleine prevent us from fixing the date of his death, but we do know that Jeanne Aunois was a widow on 12 Oct. 1670". It isprobable that he died later in 1668.
