French Military Service
Jean Beaugrand dit Champagne was a soldier in the Carignan-Salières Regiment, Saurel company. The Carignan-Salières was formed from two existing regiments: the Balthasar Regiment, formed during the Thirty Years' War and becoming the Salières when Balthasar died in 1665, and the Carignan Regiment, formed in 1644 in Piedmont. Following the Treaty of the Pyrenees in 1659, both regiments avoided disbandment by merging to form the Carignan-Salières Regiment.
In 1664, following the request of the Sovereign Council, the French finance minister Jean Baptiste Colbert ordered the Carignan-Salières to reinforce the existing 100 man force in New France. This reinforcement was as much, if not more, motivated by mercantile ambitions than actual cries for help from New France. By now the regiment had been reduced to eight companies of about 400 troops; this was insufficient to meet King Louis XIV's demand for a large military force. The regiment's strength was increased to 20 companies and 1000 troops by absorbing 12 other French companies, including those from the Lallier, Chambellé, Poitou, and Broglio regiments.
The pleas of the colonists of New France for assistance in their struggle with the Iroquois Indians were answered in 1665 with the arrival of the first French regular troops in Canada, the Carignan-Salières Regiment. Between June and September 1665, some 1200 soldiers and their officers arrived in Quebec, under the leadership of Lt. General Alexander de Prouville, Sieur de Tracy.
The regiment's service in New France began when a third of them were ordered to build new forts along the Richelieu River, the principal route of the Iroquois marauders. Fort Chambly formerly known as Fort St. Louis at Chambly, Fort Sainte Thérèse, and Fort Saint-Jean at Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, were along the Richelieu River and were constructed as ways to limit Iroquois nation attacks on citizens of New France. Fort Sainte Anne in Lake Champlain was near the river's source. All of the forts were used as supply stations for the troops as they were deployed on their two campaigns into Iroquois nation land in 1666.
The series of forts established by the Regiment along the Richelieu River, along with the success of its second campaign into the land of the Mohawk Indians, led to a long period of peace for the colony, which permitted it to prosper. However, King Louis XIV's plan included the permanent settlement of many of the soldiers and officers in Canada. Over 450 of these troops remained in the colony, many of whom married the newly arrived filles du roi.

Surnames: Beaugrand-Champagne Beaugrand dit Champagne
Announcing that at the French Heritage DNA project (http://frenchdna.org) and at the Beaugrand surname project (http://beaugrand.ca), using the signature of five descendants of Jean Beaugrand-dit-Champagne who had fully documented their descent, we were able, through triangulation, to identify the signature of ancestor Jean. Jean Beaugrand, whose war name as a soldier was “Champagne”, came to New France in 1665 with the Regiment of Carignan. After his service, he stayed in the colony and married Marguerite Samson, a “Fille du Roi”. Their son Jean-Baptiste was the only one of their children to assure their descent. Jean-Baptiste married Françoise Guignard d’Olonne and the couple had two sons, Antoine and Pierre-Simon, from who descend all Beaugrand dit Champagne of French Canadian root.
Note this dob and location are unsourced, no document has been found to support it. Where he settled has no relevance to his origin. bpt. 21 Nov. 1641 Ploudalmezeau, Finistere, Bretagne m. MARGUERITE SAMSON (bur. 24 July 1721 L'Ile-Dupas or Sorel) bur. 5 Dec. 1699 St-Pierre de Sorel
A Jean Beaugrand was baptised in St-Germain in 1641 the son of Barthelemy Beaugrand and Perrette Bongare. However, other than having the same name, no other link between this Jean and our Jean in Quebec is found. The same issue occurs with the Jean Bougaran from Finistère baptised also in 1641, although, our Jean often gave his name as "Gean Bougeren" or "Gean Bougueren" which would more closely match Jean from Finistère. Also, our Jean settled on L'Ile-Dupas, a wind swept land of reeds where every move must be made by boat and where the daily fare consisted of stewed fish, frog legs, cattail tubers and the eggs of the local waterfowl... this sounds like an area where an accomplished sailor from Finistère would settle and not somebody from Paris.
Jean was one of the first settlers in Berthier and was involved in the contruction of Fort Richelieu. He first lived on the north shore of the St-Lawrence in the Seigneurie of Villemur/d'Autray where the church stands today. He then purchased land on L'Ile-Dupas.
