In 1728 he married a young Canadian girl from the nobility, Marie-Claire, daughter of Joseph de Fleury de La Gorgendière. They returned briefly to France and then back to Canada in 1732. It was then that his most important contribution to the Taschereau family's future took place, mainly establishing their Seigneury of Sainte-Marie . At his death, Taschereau's seigneury was well established. His wife was able to raise and educate their remaining 8 children. The youngest, Gabriel-Elzéar Taschereau , carried on the name and became the second seigneur of Sainte-Marie. One of Gabriel-Elzéar's sisters, Marie-Anne-Louise Taschereau , joined the Ursuline order in Quebec and became Superior of the convent. EXTERNAL LINKS
