The influence of kinship on seventeenth-century immigration to Canada

Abstract: Im 17. Jahrhundert kamen etwa 15.000 französische Einwanderer nach Kanada, von denen ein Drittel für immer in der Kolonie blieb. Wie so häufig, handelte es sich in der Mehrzahl um unverheiratete junge Männer, zwischen denen jedoch gleichzeitig feste Verwandtschaftsbeziehungen bestanden, von einfachen Geschwistergruppenbis hin zu Gruppen, die mehrere Familien umfaßten. Fast 25 Prozent der Männer und 40 Prozent der Frauen waren mit wenigstens einem weiteren Einwanderer verwandt.Die Untersuchung zeigt, daß die An… Show more

“…Following the British Conquest, immigration diversified and had a variable impact on the regional populations (Bergeron et al, 2008; Tremblay et al, 2009). Moreover, French immigrants came from all regions of France (Vézina et al, 2005) and principally landed as single member of their family (Charbonneau et al, 1993; Guillemette and Légaré, 1989). Contemporary regions of France have been shown to be genetically heterogeneous (Dubut et al, 2004; Richard et al, 2007).…”

“…Such units apparently served as a device for poor persons in different generations to share risks and pool resources, helping them to survive in a precarious world. NOTES 1 For other recent historical studies of family relations in migration, see especially Moch and Tilly's (1985) comparative study of three French cities and Guillemette and Legare's (1989) study of the migration from France to Canada in the seventeenth century. 2 Further details on the population register system and on methods employed in using this source in the Casalecchio study may be found in Kertzer and Hogan 1989.…”

“…Finalement, il faut spécifier que l'on ne sait à quel point l'échantillon des fondateurs était diversifié sur le plan de l'apparentement. Guillemette et Légaré ont démontré que 30% des immigrants était apparentés et De Braekeleer souligne le fait que les emigrants provenaient de 38 provinces françaises et qu'ils migraient le plus souvent en solitaire (Charbonneau et al, 1987;Guillemette et Légaré, 1989;De Braekeleer, 1990).
