Etienne Vien, his wife Marie Denot, and their daughter Marie Vien are believed to have arrived in New France as a family in the 1640s. No marriage record, neither a parish act nor a contract, for Marie Vien and Jean Languetot, aka Jean Lanctot and Jean Languedoc, has been found. I have been able to trim the time frame down to before June 6, 1651.
In addition, nobody has found a record of death for Etienne Vien, though it was probably after June 6, 1651.
I've been attempting to transcribe the June 6, 1651 document in full, but am having difficulties. I was hoping someone on these forums might be able to help.
