L'as de Nimes

The coat of arms for the city of Nimes appears on a medal that was awarded to French citizens for bravery(?), military service(?) throughout the 18th and perhaps even the 17th centuries. An habitant of New France was likely awarded this medal at some time and earned the nickname "La Palme" because of the palm tree on one side of the medal (also seen in the coat of arms for the city of Nimes). The nickname of the medal was therefore likely "La Palme" and receipients of the medal gave themselves the nickname of La Palme.

Jean Gaboriau dit Lapalme

J G dit Lapalme apparently got this nickname when he saved some people from drowning in a river and was awarded a medal. The name of the medal was "La Palme".
He was the descendant of Marie-Madeleine Couc.

Worst Week Ever

This has been by far the worst week since January 2008 when I was in a fight with a co-worker and had to go to court on an assault charge.

What's been happening over the past week:
Some punks from across the street threw a party the other night. Some of their drunken guests thought it would be fun(ny) to smash up some sideview mirrors of the cars parked across the street. My girlfriend's was one of them.

I was sick with a bad flu from Friday the 13th (i'm not superstitious so don't read more into that date than you need to) until Thursday the 19th. Since then I've been left with a bacterial lung infection.

My blood sugars have been going haywire since the 13th when I was struck by what my doctor is quite sure was swine flu. I can't exercise when I'm sick. With my lungs short of breath as they are I can't go play soccer or go to the gym. I just need to sit this one out and hope that it gets better.

I've missed a lot of school. I missed class Friday through Friday and again this morning. I will likely miss the rest of this week. I had 2 midterms put on hold and I have to write those soon. I have a big paper due on December 2.

A local gym owes me three months worth of payments that they took from my account while I was no longer a member. I'm having a heck of a time getting my money back.

How was your week?

Nicolas Couc who married Elisabeth Templair. Hailed from Cognac, St. Onge, France near Toulouse. (Ottomans in c. 1560?)
Their son, Pierre Couc Lafleur came to Canada and settled at Trois-Rivieres where he married an Algonquin woman named Marie M________. One of their descendants was Gaboriau(lt) dit Lapalme who settled in the Farnham/St. Dominique region.

Looks like Lapalme was originally Gaboriault

Pierre Leduc et "le soleil d'afrique"

Pierre Leduc est venu au Canada en 1691 a bord "Le Soleil d'Afrique", un fregate navale de l'armee Francaise. It departed from La Rochelle on April 27, 1688 with fifty soldiers and 25 recruits. (Pierre Leduc was one of these? I've read that he was a <> - a cauldron maker, metal worker with the French army. We know that he was born in the little parish of St. Laurent(?), just outside Rouen, Haute-Normandie in 1645, to Pierre Leduc Sr. and Anne Martin. In 1688 when the soleil d'afrique set sail, he would have been 43. They reached Quebec on June 3, 1688. The commanding officer was one, Denonville. Bonaventure fits in there somewhere. He was another senior officer or the captain. I have also read somewhere that these soldiers were in the <>. I'm assuming this was the name of their regiment. I had read elsewhere that Pierre arrived in 1691, and that the soleil d'afrique first stopped at Louisbourg. So I'm not sure how this all fits together. But here you have the facts. Pierre Leduc married Catherine Fortin, daughter of Louis Fortin from Evreux (also in Haute Normandie), and they settled on a small farm on Ile-Perot (near Montreal). The freeway there apparently runs through where there farm used to be. Seven or eight generations later my great grandfather, Godfrey Leduc was born (c. 1901) at St. Timothee, near Salaberry de Valleyfield, in the Beauharnois region. He moved to Alberta in 1920 and became a farmer. His wife, Antoinette LaPalme, was from St. Dominique, Quebec (near St. Hyacinthe), and they married in c. 1929. They met while Antoinette was out visiting her LaPalme relatives in Wainwright, Alberta. Her parents were Josephe Lapalme and Euphemie Sinotte Loiselle of St. Dominique, Bagot, Quebec. I would like to find out more about the LaPalme and Sinotte family lines one day. How did they come to New France? Which part of France were they from? Etc.
I've recorded this so that I don't forget it. Hopefully you find some of it useful.
