16 iv. Joseph LÉVEILLÉE was born 19 and baptized 20 March 1813 in St-Michel d'Yamaska, Québec. Godparents were Jean-Baptiste BROUILLARD and Geneviève DANIS. (9) He first married Marie BROUILLARD (Félix BROUILLARD & Marie Louise ALEXANDRE) on 18 Oct 1831 in St-Michel d'Yamaska, Québec. Joseph married twice more: his second marriage to Émilie AUTOT (AUTOTTE) on 13 April 1874; his third marriage to Luce CARTIER on 12 April 1866. (1) He died in 1902 in St-Aimé, Massueville, Richelieu County, Québec.(1)
i. Antoine FOURQUIN-LÉVEILLÉE was born 6 October and baptized 7 October 1798 in Yamaska.(6) He married Angélique DEGUIRE-DESROSIERS (Jean-Baptiste & Thérèse FORCIER) 7 Aug 1820, in St-Michel d'Yamaska, Québec. (1)(3)(4). Antoine was one of the original 139 residents of St-Michel Parish who requested, in a document dated 24 January 1834, that a new parish be established in the Massue seigniory or domain. On 3 June 1834 the first members of the Conseil de la Corporation de St-Aimé were elected. Antoine Léveillée was one of these first members.(10) Thus began the construction of the church and the organization of the village of St-Aimé, now known as Massueville, named after its first Lord, Aimé Massue. Antoine Fourquin-Léveillé was one of the first church wardens, serving in that capacity in 1838. (5) It is probably that Antoine died before 1886 since his wife wrote her will on 25 Sept 1886, leaving all her possessions to charitable causes.. It is probable that he died on 3 November since one of the provisions of Angélique's will stipulated that a low Mass be celebrated every 3 November each year, forever.
