Marguerite Couillard

(10 Aug 1626 - 20 Apr 1705)

Marguerite Couillard, also recorded as Marguerite Couillart, was born about 10 August 1626 in Québec, the principal settlement of New France. She was the daughter of Guillaume Couillard (1588–1663) and Marie Guillemette Hébert (1608–1684), members of one of the earliest French families established in Canada. The Couillard and Hébert families were directly connected to Louis Hébert, recognized as the first permanent settler and farmer of Québec, situating Marguerite within the founding generation of colonial society.
