Between the years of 1634 and 1663, a total of 262 girls and young women left behind their homeland in France, and arrived the unknown and often hostile land of New France with the hope of finding a husband, and starting a new family and a new life. They became known as the “Filles à Marier,” which translates as the “Marriageable Girls.”

The majority did indeed marry and establish families. Together with the Filles du Roi who arrived after them, they populated the struggling colony and became the foremothers of virtually everyone who has French-Canadian ancestry.

This is the first of two volumes of Filles à Marier genealogies. It includes each of the girls, their husbands, children, and grandchildren, covering surnames A-H. The remainder are in the following volume.

Shari Grenier is a wife, mother and forever-young grandmother.

As the daughter of an RCAF Corporal, Shari has lived in many of the most beautiful cities in Canada, including Halifax, Montreal, Vancouver, Ottawa, and Toronto. She is a graduate of the New York School of Interior Design and the University Waterloo (Religious Studies). In 1996, she opened Sandcastles Weddings and soon became a widely sought-after wedding planner. Since then, the business has evolved to training, certifying, and coaching wedding planners, and to the officiating of weddings.

Shari is the ministry director of Proverbs 31 Lifestyles, empowering women by creating the serenity they need to reach their full potential through their faith in Jesus Christ, and contribute in their unique way, both in and out of the home. She also serves as the Archdeacon of the Community Catholic Church of Canada.

Married to her high-school sweetheart, Rev Dave Grenier, Shari is equally at home in Paris, New York, or Toronto. The Greniers make their home just east of Toronto.
