NOTES.
Names indented are those of administrators.
Except in the case of administrators, the date of the arrival at Quebec,
wherever I have been able to ascertain it, is that given in the second
column in the list of French Governors.
(a) Quebec was held by the English, under Louis Kirke, from July 20, 1629,
to July 13, 1632, when it was restored to France. The colony was then
governed by Emery de Caen and Duplessis Bochart, until Champlain's return,
May 23, 1633.
(b) The date given in the second column is that of Champlain's death.
Chateaufort's administration began on the day of the interment, probably
the 28th.
(c) The Marquis de Tracy, the King's Lieutenant-General in America,
arrived at Quebec, June 30, 1665, and was virtually the Governor of Canada
till his departure, August 28, 1667.
(d) The date here given in the second column is that of the registration
of the Governor's commission at Quebec.
(e) La Galissonniere was sent out to administer the Government during the
captivity of La Jonquiere, who, on his way from France, had been made
prisoner by the English.
(f) Although Amherst is usually placed first on the list of English
Governors, it is well known that after the capitulation of Montreal be
divided the province into three governments or districts, to each of which
he appointed a Governor, and that he himself very shortly afterwards left
the country and did not return. The Governors of these three districts,
during what is commonly called the period of military rule, from Sept. 8,
1760, to Aug. 10, 1764,
were as follows:
District of Quebec,
Gen. James Murray Sep. 1760 to Aug. 1764.
District of Three Rivers,
Col. Ralph Burton Sep. 1760 to May 1762.
Col. Fred. Haldimand May 1762 to Mar. 1763.
