Book excerpt: François Davignon dit Beauregard (b.ca1685) was born in France, perhaps in the southwestern region of France (a number of acquaintances and sons-in-law of Francois were emigrants from the southwestern French provinces of Auverge, Guyenne and Gascony). He emigrated to Canada and settled in the Chambly basin, where he was one of the area's earliest pioneers. (Chambly is about 14 miles east of Montreal and situated in the Richelieu River valley). He farmed in this area the rest of his life. In 1719, at Chambly, his marriage to Madeleine Mailhot, the daughter of Jean Mailhot and Marie Courault, was formalized. Their first child, Catherine was nine months old. They were the parents of at least ten more children. Most of Francoiś descendants surnamed Davignon, trace their ancestry through only two of his sons, Jean-Baptiste and Clement-Amable. The descendants of Alexis, another son, go by the surname Beauregard, except for a few lines. The other two sons, Françcois and André, had no surviving male issue. Both François and Madeleine died in 1761. Five generations of descendants are given.
