Notes - Marie Le Barbier, born on May 20, 1619, in St. Cande le Viel, Rouen, Normandy, France, was the daughter of Henry Le Barbier and Marie Le Villain. Her life took a significant turn when she married Nicolas Marsolet on March 19, 1637, in the parish of Saint-Sauveur, Rouen. Shortly after their marriage, the young couple crossed the Atlantic to New France, becoming one of the first French families to arrive after Quebec was returned to French control by the British.
At just 18 years old when she married the 36-year-old Marsolet, Marie adapted quickly to life in the New World. She gave birth to their first child on February 22, 1638, less than a year after their marriage. Over the years, Marie and Nicolas had a total of ten children, though only six survived to adulthood. Throughout their nearly 40-year marriage, Marie managed their household and raised their family while Nicolas pursued his various business and interpreting activities.
After Marsolet's death in 1677, Marie, then 58, remarried four years later to Denis Le Maistre (or Lemaitre) on May 8, 1681. This second marriage produced no children. Marie Le Barbier died on February 20, 1688, in Quebec, having spent almost five decades in the colony she had come to call home.
