Biography

Jean Baptiste was born around 1726. The baptismal record has never been found, so the exact date and place of birth are not known. The date of 1726 is calculated from his age at death, which was given as 82 at the time of his burial in 1808 [1] [2]. He was the son of Jean-Baptiste Côté and Geneviève Bernier. His father was the second Seigneur of L'Isle-Verte from the Coté family, and he became the third Seigneur in the "Coté dynasty".

His first marriage was to Isabelle Elisabeth Lepage de St Barnabé. The marriage contract was dated October 17, 1754 and was recorded at Rimouski by notary Dionne on 25 Aug 1756 [3]. Their son, Jean Baptiste, was the only known child of the couple and he was to became the fourth Seigneur of L'Isle-Verte from the Coté family. Isabelle is presumed to have died before 1784 when Jean Baptiste remarried.

His second marriage was to Marie Scholastique Levasseur on August 16, 1784 at L'Isle-Verte, Province de Quebec [4] [5]. The couple had at least 4 children together :

  • Benoit (b. 1786)
  • Athanase (b. ~1788)
  • Zacharie (b. 1788)
  • Gabriel (b. 1792)

He passed away on December 21, 1808, at the age of 82 and was buried on December 22, 1808 at L'Isle-Verte, Lower Canada [1].
