Creuzbourg's Jäger Corps From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Creuzbourg's Jäger Corps (Jäger-Corps von Creuzbourg) was an independent Jäger battalion raised by thecounty of Hesse-Hanau and put to the disposition of the British Crown, as part of the German Allied contingent during the American Revolutionary War. The corps fought at the Battle of Oriskany, although mostly serving as garrison of different Canadian posts.

After the Treaty of Paris 1783 the Hesse-Hanau contingent was repatriated. Nevertheless, almost

half of Creuzbourg's Jäger Corps chose to resign and settle in Canada. Their combat experience

had been limited, but during long marches they had learned the way of the wilderness with hunting,

fishing and snowshoeing, and enjoyed life much more than in Germany.

The Churches of the Europeans in Québec 1621 to 1749 - Germanic Immigrants - Hundreds of immigrants from Germanic regions of Europe would settle into Nouvelle France (New France) - Soldiers, mariners, fishermen, farmers from Germany, Fleming (Flemish), the Netherlands (Dutch), Austria, Switzerland, Alsace, Lorraine and Luxembourg. Please note: Some of the early settlers from the various Germanic regions indicated above would marry into Catholic Churches whenever they united their lives with French Canadian family members. Many of these European immigrants were actually Protestants in their Old Country but in order to marry French Canadian girls, they had to join the Catholic Church. Furthermore, during the French Regime, the Catholic Church Registers does not reflect the true spelling of their original European family names, but instead a great number of family names were changed into French sounding family names. Under British Rule from 1759 onwards, Anglican, Lutheran, Presbyterian, Baptist, Episcopalian, Dutch Reformed ministers and pastors were much more respectful of the spelling of Continental European family names or at least, they made an effort in the recording aspect of said church registers. 1759 - Germanic Catholics - Parish of Notre Dame - Montréal - First known Germanic marriage with a member of a French Canadian family took place in 1759 or at least appears to be so, it is possible that earlier marriages or baptisms involving German individuals, might have occurred, but I did not find any prior to 1759 - BAnQ films #1100 (1642-1694) #1101 (1695-1728) #1173 (1728-1764) #1174 (1764-1790) #1175 (1790-1810) plus many more microfilms and books of marriages up to the year of 1942 - Ancestry.ca (1642-1942) - http://www.leseglisesdemonquartier.com/504.html 1761 - Germanic Catholics - Parish of Saint-Charles-de-Bellechasse - County of Bellechasse - From about 1761, Germanic settlers marrying into French Canadian families. - BAnQ films #3119 #1024 #1025 #1026 #1027 #M-319.12 (1749-1940) - Ancestry.ca (1749-1940) - http://leseglisesdemonquartier.com/967.html 1773 - Dutch Loyalists - Early Dutch Settlements in the Richelieu Valley and Missisquoi County - Noyan - St. Georges Parish of Clarenceville, Philipsburg (St. Armand) - Prior to the immigration of the Dutch Families to Québec, many of these
