Jean-Baptiste AYLWIN
dit Jean LANGLOIS, Sauvage
dit Jean LANGLAIS, Sauvage
(~1712 - 1766)

Jean-Baptiste Aylwin est né vers 1710 à Pointe Noire en Nouvelle-Angleterre (auj. Scarborough, Maine, États-Unis).^[1]

Il fut apprenti armateur de Roger Deering à Pointe Noire.^[2]

Il auraurait été capturé par des autochtones lors d'un raid effectué à Pointe Noire le 26 juin 1723. Encore enfant, il fut confié aux soins des hurons de Lorette prêt de Québec où il est y est resté définitivement.^[3][4]

Ayant signé un contrat de mariage le 19 août 1761 par devant le notaire André Genest, Il épousa en août 1761 Marie Marguerite Pageot, fille de Charles-Joseph Pageot et Marie Marguerite Magnan à la mission huron de Lorette.^[1][5]

Il a obtenu des concessions de terres prêt de Québec en 1733, 1745, 1758.^[6] Luc Lacroix et d'autres 'experts' en généalogie maintiennent en erreur que:^[6]

• Jean-Baptiste Aylwin, Sauvage est Jean Langlois, petit-fils de Noël Langlois et Françoise Grenier.
• Françoise Grenier est Algonquine.
• Louis Langlois, Algonquin est le petit-fils de Jean Langlois.

Les assertions de Luc Lacroix et al. sont en erreur parce que:

• Françoise Grenier épousa Noël à Beauport où elle est décédée, clairement à l'extérieur du territoire Algonquin.
• Aucun des trois fils adultes marié, Jean, Jean and Noël, de Françoise Grenier semble avoir eu un fils ou petit-fils qui était Jean Langlois, Sauvage.
• Jean Langlois qui obtena les quatre concessions de terre était connu Sauvage et Huron, il ne savait pas signé, et il épousa Marguerite Pageau.
• Divers généalogistes et le PRDH maintiennent que Jean Langlais / Langlois était la même personne que John Hunnewell alias Annaouil dit Langlais.
• Aucune evidence convainquant démontre que Françoise Grenier était autochtone ou Algonquine.
• Aucune documentation n'a été trouvée pour Françoise Grenier qui identifie ses parents, son lieu de naissance ou son origine ethnique.

Des résultats d'analyses mtADN (haplogroupe J2), on aussi établie que Françoise Grenier est européenne et non autochtone.

Il est décèdé et fut inhumé le 7 mars 1766 à Lorette.^[2]

Est-ce que les faits sont cohérents ?

' In February. 1724 , an expedition was sent to Penobscot under Col. Westbrook, and another to Norridgewock under Capt. Hammon, both of which were unsuccessful. The enemy remained in their retreats until the weather became suitable to open the campaign, when they divided into small parties, and harassed the whole line of frontier settlements. In April they took eight persons in Scarborough and Falmouth, killing some, among whom was Sergeant Chubb of the Scarborough garrison. In June [26 June 1723] they attacked Roger Deering's garrison house in Scarborough, killed his wife, also Thomas Larabee and his son, and took three of his children and Mary Scammon (No. 790), John Hunnewell and Robert Jordan prisoners."

" It is thought by historians that John Hunnewell (Jean-Baptiste Annaouil) was (acted as) the guide in New France for the Swedish Botanist Pehr Kalm, in the summer of 1749. According to translations of the scientists documented travels throughout New England and New France (*), it is noted that on August 12th, 1749, the Governor-General Marquis de la Galissonniere, who had a great interest in the scientific research of the Swedish/Finnish botanist, dispatched a guide from Lorette to assist. This Guide to New France is described by Kalm himself as an Englishman, living among the Huron for 30 years after being taken as a young boy, adopted by them, living by their customs, knowing their natural remedies and many languages (English, French and local Indian dialects). He is described as having been converted roman-catholic, married to a woman while living in the Indian community and having several children in 1749. (To date, no written documents have been found for this potential ‘first marriage or first children’, while being 39 years of age. Only his ‘second’ marriage, in 1760, at the age of 50, to a French woman of 20 years, Marie-Marguerite Pageot and their 4 children, has been discovered so far.) " by Pierre Langlais on 12 Aug 2019
