Excerpt from Olive Tree Genealogy

Simeon LeRoy dit Audy was born in 1640 in Creance, Normandy, France. Simeon LeRoy was born in Creances which is a village about twelve miles northwest Of Coutances, Manche, Normandy. He died in probably shortly after 1710. The Abridged Compendium Of American Genealogy says Simeon LeRoy died about 1713. The origin of the LeRoy family of Dutchess County,N.Y. is covered in Dictionaire Genealogique Des Familles Canadiennes. A five Page article called The Life And Family Of Simeon Leroy was published about this Simeon LeRoy in the New York Genealogical & Biographical Record, volume 64, pages 41-45. He was a master carpenter or contractor. About 1681 or 1682 Simeon and his wife took some of their family to Kingston, N.Y. Nine of their eleven children were recorded in Canada. The two youngest are thought to have been born at Kingston. Simeon was a Roman Catholic but his children became Protestants and married Protestants.

Simeon settled first in the fief or seigneurie of St-Joseph or L'espinay, Charlesbourg, near the Charles River which belonged to the Hebert- Couillard de L'espinay family in Quebec, Canada in October 1668 (greffe: Notary Jean leconte, Quebec). His neighbors were his brother-in-law, Jean Giron and Andre Barbaut. He was a resident of st. Joseph's from 1668 to 1679. On December 13, 1676 Simeon bought a lot with an untenantable house in Quebec (greffe: Notary Pierre Duquet, Quebec).The purchase price was discharged in part October 25, 1678 out of an advance of 100 livres paid to him on account of carpentry work contracted by him to be done for the sisters of the congregation of Montreal. It is not known what building he was to erect for the sisters. He was in Montreal in July 1679 and bought considerable land there that fronted on the St. Lawrence River in Cote St.-Francois [greffe: Notary maugue, montreal]. The deed which is dated July 2, 1679 calls him a resident of Quebec but as of July 30, 1679 becoming a resident of Montreal.

Simeon also bought land in Montreal on April 10, 1680, December 9, 1680 and January 4, 1681. He entered into building contracts on September 7, 1680 and December 22, 1680. On January 6, 1681 he surveyed some land to estimate the amount of timber on it. On may 15, 1681 Simeon contracted with antoine Guibord and Francois Huart to work for him as sawyers. The census of 1681 shows Simeon LeRoy and his wife Claude and their 8 children as residents of Montreal. Simeon's last appearance in the records of Montreal was at the time of the burial of his daughter Marie on may 21, 1681. The next appearance of Simeon on any public record found so far is in Albany, New York when on November 28, 1682 he apprenticed his son Augustin, age 11 to Adam Winne to learn ropemaking for 6 consecutive years.

Sometime between may 1681 and November 1682 Simeon took or sent his second son, Jean, to St-Joseph village near Charlesbourg to live with his godfather, Jean Giron and took his wife and most (if not all) of their young children to Albany, New York in the United States. In or before 1689 he moved to Kingston, Ulster county, New York. In 1689 he rented a house that belonged to Jochem Hendrickse [(greffe: notary maugue, montreal)] Before 1701 he bought a house and lot from Henry Beekman [(Albany notarial papers in the county Clerk's office, volume 2, page 420)] Simeon fell on hard times in his old age which is proved by the fact that on March 1, 1708 the trustees of Kingston gave him a pair of shoes and a load of wood and paid for the burial of his wife [(Minutes Of The Trustees of Kingston, March 1, 1708)] It is thought that Simeon died soon after his last mention in the Ulster County tax list of 1710.

Simeon's name can be found in the Kingston records for the years 1686 or 1687, 1689, 1691, 1693, 1695, 1697, 1701, 1707, 1708, and 1710. Some have proposed the theory that Simeon was a secret huguenot and only conformed to the Roman catholic religion while in Canada. It is theorized that this is why he Left Canada at the first opportunity. Others dismiss this theory even though Simeon and his wife were the sponsors at their granddaughter's baptism in Staten Island (where they did not live) in the Dutch Reformed Church (non Catholic) there. It is argued that they probably were only represented by a proxy before a Dutch Reformed Dominie who did not know they were Catholic.

To further dismiss the theory that Simeon was a Huguenot a letter written by Claude's brother-in-law, Jean Giron to Marie Anne LeRoy, is cited. In the letter, Jean Giron congratulated Marie Anne on her marriage to Hugo Freer who was a Huguenot. But he also remarks that he would have been more glad to hear of her new state "if it were that you were married in our religion, if it were with the consent of your father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Some believe that this was Jean Giron's way of expressing his disapproval of Marie Anne marrying outside the R. Catholic religion even though it is dated 9 years After the marriage. This letter is preserved in the New Paltz Historical Museum and a full translation is available in Lefevre's History Of New Paltz on pages 356-357. An image of the letter can be seen online.^[16] The fact that Simeon and his eldest son Olivier refused to take the oath of allegiance to King William and Queen Mary is also taken as proof by some of Simeon's faithfulness to the Catholic church since taking the oath would have meant denouncing Catholic doctrines. [Documentary History of New York, volume i, pages 279, 282 Ulster County, 1689]

Simeon was married to Claude"Blandina" Deschalets, a Filles du Roi from France, on 3 Sep 1668 in Quebec, Canada. Simeon LeRoy and Claude "Blandina" Deschalets were married in the parish of Notre Dame in Quebec Canada by h. De bernieres. Their witnesses were Pierre Chamare, Michel Riffaut, and Francois Charlet. The parish register reads "the third day of the month of September, 1668, after betrothal and the publication of one bann of marriage, between Simeon LeRoy, a son of Richard LeRoy and Gilette Jacquet, his father and mother, of the parish of Notre Dame De fontenay le Comte, Bishopric Of Maitzais (Maillezais), of the second part; Monseigneur the bishop having granted them a dispensation of two banns, and there being discovered no legal impediment, I, the undersigned, Cure of this parish, have married them and have given them the nuptial benediction, according to the form prescribed by the Holy Church in the presence of the known witnesses, Pierre Chamare, Michel Riffaut, Francois Charlet. (signed) H. De bernieres."

Excerpt from Becker, Alfred LeRoy, NYB&G RECORD; ; Jan 1933; pp 41-45

"Simeon LeRoy, the common ancestor of the families known in French Canada as Roy-Audy and in the United States as LeRoy and Laraway, was born about 1640 at Cr©ances, a village about twelve miles northwest of Coutances, Manche, Normandy. It is a matter of record that he was a son of Richard LeRoy and Gilette Jacquet, of Créances, but nothing further of his parents or of his ancestry can be ascertained. LeRoy and Jacquet were and still are names common at Créances, and the name LeRoy and its briefer form of Roy are common throughout France in many branches probably unrelated. The only person of the name who acquired note as early as the sixteenth century was Louis LeRoy(latiniezed to Regius), humanist and Professor of Greek at the College de France. Born at Coutances early in the sixteenth cemtury, he died at Paris in 1577. In later years many of the name became distinguished. There has been a fanciful tradition in the American family of descent from Marshal Leroy de Saint Arnaud, general of France in the Crimean War; it is a more than usually silly legend. Of the truth, that the family is descended from one of the first Franch Catholic Canadians to leave Canada and settle in New York, tradition has preserved not a vestige. The most common legend, that the family was of Huguenot origin, is likewise erroneous, except as respects its intermarriages. It should here be noted that there is no known relationship to the LeRoy family of New York City.

Simeon LeRoy settled in the fief or seigneurie of St.-Joseph, Charlesbourg, near Quebec, in the year 1668, removed to Montreal in 1679, to Albany in 1681 or 2, and in or before 1689 to Kingston, New York, where he dwelt until the time of his death about 1711. In Canada, and in Kingston as late as 1701, he was also knows by an agnomen or nickname, Ody (Audy, Audi; in Kingston on the mortgage record, Ulster County Deeds, AA:313, Oct 8, 1701, it appears as Madie). In Quebec records he was usually referred to as 'Simeon LeRoy dit Ody,' although he always signed his name 'S: leRoy.' The agnomen Ody (possibly derived from a mild French expletive equivalent to the colloquial 'by gosh'), served to distinguish him from the twenty-five or thirty others of the same surname living in Canada at the time. Nearly every one of these Roys or LeRoys had some similar sobriquet, as can be seen from the Roy genealogies in Abbe Tanguay's 'Familles Canadiennes.'

By trade Sineon Le Roy was a master-carpenter or contractor; by religion he was a Roman Catholic. The notion that he may have been a secret Huguenot, conforming perforce to the Catholic regime while in Canada, but leaving at the first opportunity to join his Protestant co-religionists in New York, must be dismissed. His children became Protestants and married Protestants, but it is a signigicant fact that Sineon LeRoy and his wife stood as sponsors at the baptism of only one of their numerous grandchildren, and then at Staten Island, where they did not reside, and were represented probably by a proxy before a Dutch Reformed dominie who doubtless did not know their religious adherence. Further, we have the interesting inference to be drawn from the letter written by Jean Giron, the husband of Mrs. LeRoy's sister, to the LeRoys' daughter, Marie Anne, the wife of Hugo Freer, Jr., the son of a patentee of New Paltz, and a Huguenot. It was written from Quebec, and dated August 17, 1699. Giron congratulated Marie Anne on her marriage, but said that while he was glad to hear of her new state, he would be 'still more if it were that you were married in our religion, if it were with the consent of your father-in-law and mother-in-law.' In this polite way Jean Giron expressed his disapproval of Marie Anne's marriage into a Protestant family. Finally, when in 1689 the inhabitants of New York were called upon to appear and take oath of allegiance to King William and Queen Mary, Sineon LeRoy and his eldest son, Olivier, were among those who are recorded as having defaulted in appearance. The oath contained the most rigid abjuration of all Catholic doctrines, and their default speaks for itself.

As Sineon LeRoy came to Quebec in 1668 an unmarried man of 28, it is quite likely that he had done service in the French army. (Many discharged soldiers were being settled in Canada at the time.) It was not long before he married, September 3, 1668, Claude DesChalets. She was one of the three orphaned sisters among those 'filles du roi' sent to Canada at royal expense to find husbands and populate the country. The dispensation by the bishop of two of the regular three banns suggests a recent arrival in New France. The act of marriage, translated from the registers of Notre Dame de Quebec, is as follows: 'The third day of the month of Septenber, 1668, after betrothal and the publication of one bann of marriage, between Simeon leRoy, a son of Richard leRoy and of Gilette Jacquet, his father and mother, of the parish of Créances, Bishopric of Coutances, in Normandy, of the first part; and Claude DesChalets, daughter of the deceased(plural)Francois d'Eschalets and Jacquette Chevallereau, her father and mother, of the parish of Notre Dame de Fontenay le Compte, bishopric of Maitzais (Maillezais), of the second part; Monseigneur the Bishop having granted them a dispensation of two banns, and there being discovered no legal impediment, I, the undersigned, curé of this parish, have married them and have given them the nuptial benediction, according to the form prescribed by the Holy Church, in the presence of the known witnesses, Pierre Chamare, Michel Riffaut, Francois Charlet. (Signed)H. DeBernieres.'

A month later, Sineon LeRoy took up lands in the fief of St. Joseph, or l'Espinay, at Charlesbourh on the St. Charles River, near Quebec, belonging to the Hébert-Couillard de l'Espinay family. He remiained a resident of St. Joseph from 1668 until 1679.

In 1669 Sineon's wife Claude and her sister, Madeleine Giron, were summoned before the Sovereign Council of New Grance because of their scandalous talk about the conduct of the wife of Michel Riffaut, on the ship coming to New France. They were required to apologize and to pay a small fine. It may be noted that this Michel Riffaut had been a witness at the wedding of the LeRoys in the preceding year.

On December, 13, 1676, Simeon LeRoy bought a lot with an untenable house, in Quebec. The purchase price was discharged in part October 25, 1678, out of an advance of 100 livres paid to him on account of carpentry work contracted by him to be done for the Sisters of the Congregation of Montreal. Just what building he was to erect for the Sisters does not appear. He was in Montreal in July, 1679, and bought considerable land there fronting on the St. Lawrence River in the locality known as the 'Cote St._Francois.' The deed of July 2, 1679, speaks of him as a resident of Quebec, but that of the thirtieth of that month as a resident of Montreal. April 10 and December 9, 1680, and January 4, 1681, he made other purchases and a sale of lands in Montreal, and on September 7 and December 22, 1680, he entered into building contracts; January 6, 1681, he acted as surveyor to estimate the amount of timber on certain land; and on May 15, 1681, he contracted with Antoine Guibord and with Francois Huart to work for him as sawyers. In the Census of 1681 Simeon LeRoy and his wife Claude appear with their eight children them living as residents of Montreal. As a 'fille du roi,' Claude may be said to have done her duty by her king, as well as by her husband, to populate the country, in twelve years she born nine children, and after the removal to New York, at least two more.

Simeon LeRoy's last appearance in the Montreal records was at the time of the burial of his daughter Marie, on May 21, 1681. His next appearance on any public record was at Albany, November 28, 1682, when he apprenticed to Adam Winne 'his young son Augustin, now about eleven years of age, for the term of six consecutive years,' to learn the trade of rope-making.

Sometime between May, 1681, and November, 1682, therefore--probably in the summer of 1682,--LeRoy took or sent his second son Jean, to St. Joseph, Charlesbourg, to live with his godfather, Jean Giron, and transported his wife and most, if not all, of their young children to Albany. How this somewhat difficult journey was made cannot be certainly known, but doubtless the route was by Lakes Champlain and George and the Hudson River, then already a traveled thoroughfare. The trip was usually made with the aid of Indian guides, in the summer by canoe and portage, and in winter by sleds over the ice and snow.

The circumstances of Sineon LeRoy's leaving Montreal must be left to conjecture; his departure with so many children, could hardly have been clandestine. There was at the time no stringent regulation against leaving Canada, although such a law was subsequently proclaimed by Louis XIV. Governor De la Barre of New France wrote, May 30, 1683, and again, November 3, 1683, that over 60 'miserable deserters' from Canada, 'of whom more than half have deserved the ropes,' were then harbored by the English at Albany and at New York. He may have the counted the eight or nine LeRoys in this group. He had, in fact, registered a protest with the Governor of New York in April of that year; to this Lieutenant-Governor Brockholls replied that Governor Andros had done all he could to check runaways to and from Canada without passports, and that other measures must be left to his successor, Dongan, whose arrival was daily expected.

From 1686 or 7 Simeon LeRoy was a resident of Kingston, New York, his name appearing on the records there in 1686 or 7, 1689, 1691, 1693, 1695, 1697, 1701, 1707, 1708, and 1710. In 1689 he occupied a rented house belonging to Jochem Hendrickse. Before 1701 he bought a house and lot there of Henry Beekman. Doublless he continued to ply his trade of carpenter.

In his later days, when he had become an aged man and his sons Leonard, or 'Jonar,' and Francois, or 'Frans,' had moved across the Hudson and taken up lands at Poughkeepsie, he fell into want, for on March 1, 1708, the Trustees of Kingston provided him with a pair of shoes and a load of wood, and paid for the burial of his wife. After his mention on an Ulster County tax list of 1710, he disappeared from the records, and it seems probable that he did not long survive.

Claude DesChalets LeRoy, like most wives of that day, remained very much in the background, her name having appeared but once in New York records. Upon this occasion, the baptism at Staten Island previously referred to, her Christian name was given as Blandina, and it seems entirely probably that she was known in New York by that name, particularly in view of the fact that four of her granddaughters, as well as a number of her female descendants, subsequently bore the name Blandina. She died probably in February, 1708, at Kingston.
