Who is Louis Tetreau ?
Louis Tétreau immigrated to New France in the middle of the 17th century. Soon after his arrival, he married Noëlle Landeau, the widow of Jean Beaudoin. Louis and Noëlle are the ancestors of all those named Tétreau/Tétreault/ Tétrault/Tetro/Tatro in North America as well as many named Ducharme descended from their son Joseph-Marie.
Louis Tetreau's origins
Our ancestor Louis hails from Tessonnière, a small village in the Department of Deux-Sèvres in the Poitou-Charente region of France. In 2013, thanks to the generosity of its members, the Association was able to affix a commemorative plaque in the heart of the village of Tessonnière.
