The father of Angélique Gibaut dit Pointevin was Gabriel Gibaut dit Poitevin, born 1641 at the parish of Notre Dame, Lugignan, Pointiers, France, the son of Pierre Gibault (1615-?) and Renee Lorliere (1619-?). Gabriel came to Quebec as a soldier with the Saurel Company of the Carignan Regiment of the French Army, which was sent to Canada to fight the Iroquois. He stayed in Canada when his military commitment was over and worked as a miller. He married 1667 in Quebec, Canada, Suzanne Durand. She was born 1653 in Montivilliers , a small town near Rouen, Normandie, France, daughter of Etienne Durand and Genevieve de la Mar of the same place. About 1667 she came to France as one of the “Les Filles du Roi” or “The King’s Daughters.” These were women sponsored by the King of France to come and marry settlers in order to promote growth in the colony. She would have been about 16. Gabriel Gibault dit Poitevin died 13 October 1700 at the hospital and was buried the next day at Montréal. Suzanne Durand died at Lavaltrie after January 7, 1710. They had at least 7 children. One of them, Angelique’s sister, Marie-Madeleine Gibault dit Pointevin was found guilty of hiding a pregnancy and abandoning her newborn, leaving the child to die in a basket. On October 7, 1697, she was hanged from a scaffold erected in the marketplace of Québec City.
