- GAMACHE LINE
Zacharie Cloutier is the oldest generation found on the Gamache line. Zacharie was born in 1590 and brought up in Mortagne au Perch France. He married Zainte Dupont there on the July 18 1616. They came to Canada with five children on August 8 1634.
There were 296 immigrants to Québec between 1608 and 1640. In 1629 only twenty men and six married women lived in Québec. Another 40 men arrived in Québec on June 4 1634, they stayed at Beauport. The Cloutier's arrival two months later may make them within the first hundred French settlers in Canada.
The Cloutiers settled on the manor of Robert Giffard at Beauport in 1644. They later moved to Château-Richer where Zacharie lived until his death on September 17 1677 at the age of eighty seven. Their five children were Zacharie, Jean, Charles, Anne and Louise.
Zacharie Cloutier's son Charles married Louise Morin. All that is known about them is that they had a daughter Elizabeth-Ursule Cloutier born on July 29 1660. She married Nicholas Gamache on November 9 1676 at Château-Richer Québec.
Nicholas was the son of Nicholas Gamache and Jaqueline Cadotte of St. Illiers-la-Ville, Diocese de Chartres, in Beauce, Departement d'Eure and Loir in France. The eldest Nicholas Gamache is the oldest Gamache found. Besides Nicholas, it is known that Nicholas Gamache and Jaqueline Cadotte also had a daughter Geneviève Gamache who married Julien Fortin on November 11 1652.
The younger Nicholas Gamache, Seigneur d'Islet, was buried on October 30 1699 at Cap St. Ignace. Nicholas and Elizabeth-Ursele were the benefactors and proprietors of the plot of ground where the Church of Cap St. Ignace was located. Their bodies were exhumed and reburied in the crypt of the new church on October 29 1728.
Nicholas Gamache and Elizabeth-Ursule Cloutier had a son Pierre Gamache who married Geneviève Bélanger on April 11 1734 in Cap St. Ignace. Geneviève's parents were Jean-François Bélanger and Geneviève Thibeault.
Pierre Gamache and Geneviève Bélanger had a son Augustine Georges Gamache who married on October 10 1780 in Baie St. Paul to Marie-Josèphte Bouchard, daughter of Michel Bouchard and Marie-Louise Tremblay. Marie-Josèphte and her father Michel Bouchard do not appear to be direct line ancestors of Ephrem Bouchard. Further research needs to be completed to see if there is any indirect relationship.
Augustine Georges Gamache and Marie-Josèphte Bouchard had a son Georges Gamache who married Marie Belere on February 17 1817 in l'Acadie Québec.
They had a son Moise Gamache who married on May 19 1840 in St. Cyprien Québec to Maxine Gagné.
