Conceded the Jesuits in simple router in 1626 by Henri de Levy, Duke of Ventadour and
Viceroy of New France, the fief of Notre-Dame-des-Anges extends from the Saint-Charles
River to the river Beauport, on four leagues of depth. During the creation of the Companies
des Cent-Associés, sanctioned by Louis XIII in May 1628, the land of the Jesuits, as all other
concessions, becomes the property of this new company. In the capitulation of Québec in
1629, the Jesuits are forced to abandon their property. They are back in New-France in 1632.
The Companies des Cent-Associés confirmed as owners of the stronghold on 16 January
1637. It will be erected in Lordship on January 17, 1652.
