I have an ancestor who was with Champlain on his 2nd voyage to Quebec, Canada in 1606.

Louis Hebert set sail for "New France" Quebec in 1606 on the "Jonas". After less than a year, Louis Hebert and the crew headed back to Paris.

Louis and his wife, Marie Rollet married in Paris in June 1602. They had 3 children. Louis always remembered the rugged beauty of Quebec wilderness. In 1617, Louis, Marie and their three kids sailed back to "New France" to live. They became a premier family and major landowners in Quebec. Up to 1632, the Hebert House on the brow of the cliff was the only private dwelling in Quebec. Farther up the edge was Champlain's Little Wooden Fort, and below it on the shore was the small Recollet Chapel. The only other buildings in the settlement were the Convent of Recollet and Jesuit Orders on the St. Charles River a mile away byond dense woods. That was 3 years before the Mayflower (1620) sailed.
