The following was found at the source listed above. In 1647, Jacques rented a farm in Quebec. Between 1651 and 1653 his family seems to have alternated between Montreal and Quebec. The family was in Montreal during the terrible summer of 1651. Jacques barely escaped the massacre. Their son Denis was killed that summer by the cannon which he was getting ready for the third blow against the Iriquois. With his son-in-law Urban Tessier, Jacques Archambault was chosen among those to defend the s tronghold known as "l'Enfant Jesus" in Montreal. This small fort was situated at the extremit y of Tessier's grant. Its defenders, who were also its propietors, were responsible for its being guarded 24 hours a day. In 1678, when Jacques was 74 years old, his three sons-in-law and his son Laurant granted a l ife pension to him "a septuagenarian and quite unable to workand to earn his living and clothing, for the natural friendship they bear him, as they always have." He died 10 years later. Children: Marie Archambault Marie Louise Archambault Denis Archambault Jacquette Archambault m. Paul Chalifou Children of Jacquette & Paul: Françoise Chalifou m.
