  • 1634—1662: Before the King’s Daughters: Filles a Marier
    The Filles à Marier refer to the marriageable girls who immigrated to New France between 1634 and September 1663 seeking a better life.  Unlike the Filles du roi, their passage wasn't paid for by the French crown, nor did they receive the “king’s gift” when they married. Although less well known than the Filles du Roi, most people with French-Canadian ancestry have at least one of these brave women as their ancestors.

  • 1636—1638: Pequot War
    The Pequot War was an armed conflict that took place in 1636 and ended in 1638 in New England, between the Pequot tribe and an alliance of the colonists from the Massachusetts Bay, Plymouth, and Saybrook colonies and their allies from the Narragansett and Mohegan tribes. The war concluded with the decisive defeat of the Pequot. At the end, about 700 Pequots had been killed or taken into captivity. Hundreds of prisoners were sold into slavery to colonists in Bermuda or the West Indies; other survivors were dispersed as captives to the victorious tribes. The result was the elimination of the Pequot tribe as a viable polity in southern New England, and the colonial authorities classified them as extinct. Survivors who remained in the area were absorbed into other local tribes.

As a result of this conflict, the Iroquois destroyed several confederacies and tribes through warfare: the Hurons or Wendat, Erie, Neutral, Wenro, Petun, Susquehannock, Mohican and northern Algonquins whom they defeated and dispersed, some fleeing to neighbouring peoples and others assimilated, routed, or killed.
