Anne Cloutier died on 16 February 1647/48 at age 22.1,2
She emigrated on 4 June 1634 from France with her parents to New France (Canada.)8
The following biographical information appeared at the Ray Drouin Home Pages (now preserved on the Geocities Archive), circa 2000:
He in turn acknowledges "Dave Clutchey who has a web page on the Cloutier" at a now obsolete web address (2018).
Anne was born in Mortagne, France on Jan 26, 1626. She was only 8 years old when she came to Canada with her parents Zacharie and Xainte Dupont on 4 June 1634. In 1634 and later in 1635 Seigneur Robert Giffard had recruited several family from Perche for an unknown life in Canada. Among these families in 1635 was Robert Drouin. A year previously Seigneur Giffard and Zacharie Cloutier had established the conditions of employment for these families. Robert Drouin lived at the home of Zacharie Cloutier on his arrival in Canada, where he was making bricks.
It was there that he met Anne Cloutier his first wife. Anne was ten years old at the time. A marriage contract was first drawn up on July 27th. with the intention that the sacrament would not be consummated until a year later. The religious ceremony took place when Anne was eleven but Robert had to content himself with non -conjugal visits for two more years. Robert was thirty years old.
Roger Cloutier in his book "The Story of the Cloutiers" noted that young eligible women were so scarce in New France at this time that Robert Drouin did not wish to risk not having a wife so he accepted the conditions of the contract. Cloutier goes on to say that the contract also stipulated that the first three years of the marriage had to be spent "under the roof of Zacharie and Xainte".
She had her first child when she was but 15 years. She had six children over all. Three of whom died at birth. Of the remaining children only two names are known, Genevieve and Jeanne. Genevieve was also married at the age of 13, and her descendants are numerous as her story below will show.
Anne Cloutier Drouin died the 4th of February 1648 at the age of 22 after eleven and a half years of marriage. Her body was transported from Chateau-Richer to Hotel Dieux in Quebec City on 4 Feb 1648. Her daughters Genevieve and Jeanne were brought up by Zacharie and Zainte, their grandfather and grandmother, until their marriages; marriages, whose descendants have played and important part in the settlement of two great cities, Detroit and New Orleans.
Robert Drouin, husband of Anne found himself a widower a the age of 41, but not for long. he married the widow Marie Chapelier on the 29th of November 1649 and fathered eight additional children.
Much of the information on Anne Cloutier was provided by Dave Clutchey who has a web page on the Cloutier.8

He was born on 6 August 1607 at Mortagne-au-Perche, Orne, Normandy, France.4 Alternatively, he may have been born on 6 August 1607 at Saint-Barthélemi du, Pin-la-Garenne, Perche, France.11,3 Robert married Anne Cloutier on 12 July 1636 at Québec, New France (Canada), this is the date of their marirage contract, followed a year later by their marriage.12,13 Robert married Anne Cloutier on 12 July 1637 at Québec, New France (Canada).14,3 Robert married Marie Chapelier on 29 November 1649.15,3
Robert Drouin died on 1 June 1685 at Château Richer, Québec, New France (Canada), at age 77.16,9,3
Note regarding Robert Drouin: Note from Norm Léveillée's web pages where he quotes from "Ancestors of Jean-Guy Coté" Database:
Robert Drouin [328]
He was in Canada in 1636 and in 1641, he already had a farm near the Rivière aux Chiens (river of dogs). His marriage contract of July 27 1636, (one year after the religious ceremony) which was concluded in the house of Robert Giffard and executed by Jean Guyon du Buisson in the absence of a notary, is the oldest marriage document preserved in the original in Canada. It seems that he is the ancestor of all Drouin in the country.
http://www.leveillee.net/ancestry/histnotes.htm#drouin
Per Norm Léveillée - 1600. Robert DROUIN was born on 6 Aug 1607 in Pin-la-Garenne, Perche, France. He arrived in Québec around 1633, as a brick-maker and worker for the Jesuits. He found the earth suitable for bricks on the Jesuits fief near the Beauport River. This place was called Pointe de l'Essai because its soil had been tested. At the end of his contract, he married Marie Anne CLOUTIER, daughter of Zacharie CLOUTIER, a settler on the Beauport fief, on 12 Jul 1637 in Québec. According to the marriage contract of 27 Jul 1636, the couple had a lodging reserved in the father-in-law's house for three years. On 25 Mar 1640, Robert promised 7,000 bricks to the Hospitalers who were building the Hôtel-Dieu. In 1640, he acquired a piece of land awarded by the Company of Beaupré and built his house there. His first wife died on 2 Feb 1648. He left his land at Beaupré to retire to Beauport. He then married Marie CHAPPELIER on 29 Nov 1649 in Québec. That same year, the Jesuits opened the Cap-de-La-Madeleine and he left there for a while. He probably worked at Trois-Rivières because the town was being built at that time and his skill as a brick-maker was in demand. He returned to Québec in 1651. The Jesuits entrusted him with their estate of Notre-Dame-de-Bonsecours near the Beauport River. On 24 Mar 1653, they granted him a piece of land close to the river. He sold it to René CHEVALIER on 12 Aug 1655 and returned to Château-Richer. He died 31 Aug 1685 and was buried on 1 Jun 1685 in Château-Richer. (1)(2)(3)(4)

- [S838] Norrm's Page - LÉVEILLÉE - BÉLANGER, online http://www.leveillee.net/ancestry/d453.htm, 1600. Robert DROUIN was born on 6 Aug 1607 in Pin-la-Garenne, Perche, France. He arrived in Québec around 1633, as a brick-maker and worker for the Jesuits. He found the earth suitable for bricks on the Jesuits fief near the Beauport River. This place was called Pointe de l'Essai because its soil had been tested. At the end of his contract, he married Marie Anne CLOUTIER, daughter of Zacharie CLOUTIER, a settler on the Beauport fief, on 12 Jul 1637 in Québec. According to the marriage contract of 27 Jul 1636, the couple had a lodging reserved in the father-in-law's house for three years. On 25 Mar 1640, Robert promised 7,000 bricks to the Hospitalers who were building the Hôtel-Dieu. In 1640, he acquired a piece of land awarded by the Company of Beaupré and built his house there. His first wife died on 2 Feb 1648. He left his land at Beaupré to retire to Beauport. He then married Marie CHAPPELIER on 29 Nov 1649 in Québec. That same year, the Jesuits opened the Cap-de-La-Madeleine and he left there for a while. He probably worked at Trois-Rivières because the town was being built at that time and his skill as a brick-maker was in demand. He returned to Québec in 1651. The Jesuits entrusted him with their estate of Notre-Dame-de-Bonsecours near the Beauport River. On 24 Mar 1653, they granted him a piece of land close to the river. He sold it to René CHEVALIER on 12 Aug 1655 and returned to Château-Richer. He died 31 Aug 1685 and was buried on 1 Jun 1685 in Château-Richer. (1)(2)(3)(4)
