Gabriel Lemieux
Recorded facts
- 10 April 1630, Saint-Étienne-de-Rouen, France (baptism reported).: Born (compiled family group) lead
- 2 December 1700, Lauzon, Québec (booklet says burial 3 December).: Died (compiled family group) lead
- Conflicting parental identification: The quoted 1630 baptism points to Anne Le Cornu and Thomas Lemieux. The 1658 marriage contract reportedly calls Louis Lemieux and Marie Luguan his parents; the compilation argues they raised him as aunt and uncle. Preserve both claims and verify the records. lead
- Migration history (compiled): The booklet says Gabriel came to New France as a teenager around 1643, later working as a cooper and settling at Lauzon. lead
- Marriage-date conflict: Marriage to Marguerite Leboeuf appears as 11 August 1658 in the Family Group Sheet, but 3 September 1658 in the prose; verify original parish entry. lead
- 2025 immigrant identification - CONFLICT (research review required): Fichier Origine revised 6 Sep 2025 identifies Gabriel Lemieux (approx. 1621-1700) as son of Pierre Lemieux and Marie Luguen, rather than Thomas Lemieux and Anne Le Cornu. The current tree links Thomas/Anne as parents. DO NOT attach replacement parents until reviewing notarial evidence and removing any incorrect parent links. lead
- 1658 marriage versus contract (research cross-check): Fichier Origine identifies the marriage to Marguerite Leboeuf as 3 September 1658; 11 August 1658 was the marriage contract before notary Guillaume Audouart, explaining both dates in the family booklet. lead

- Historical story headline: A cooper captured at sea—and a 2025 identity correction lead
- Historical story: Gabriel Lemieux, an early cooper and wine merchant near Québec, features in a dramatic historical biography: while trading in France in 1666 his ship was reportedly intercepted by the English, leaving him financially ruined. The account also reports an accusation in approximately 1667, but no conviction was established in the source. Recent 2025 genealogical research identifies him instead as a son of Pierre Lemieux and Marie Luguen, born about 1621—not the child of Thomas Lemieux and Anne Le Cornu currently connected in the family booklet. lead
- Evidence and cautions: The capture and accusation are a secondary biographical narrative, not newly inspected court files. The parentage conflict is active and must be resolved by checking the notarial and parish records before altering parent links. An accusation does not establish guilt. lead
