He was sent to Quebec as a member of the Carignan-Salières Regiment in 1665 (age 17 and assumed the "war name" of "Bosleduc"), and remained behind to settle in Charlesbourg, when the regiment left. Louis married Elizabeth Hubert (1651–1701?) on August 20, 1668 in Quebec, Canada.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“I taught school in the early days of my manhood and I think I know something about mothers. There is a thread of aspiration that runs strong in them. It is the fiber that has formed the most unselfish creatures who inhabit this earth. They want three things only; for their children to be fed, to be healthy, and to make the most of themselves.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“The Constitution of the United States is not a mere lawyers’ document. It is a vehicle of life, and its spirit is always the spirit of the age. Its prescriptions are clear and we know what they are ... but life is always your last and most authoritative critic.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
