♂Marc Semeur
Born about 1677. Died 1703, Saint-Jean, Île d'Orléans, Québec, New France.
Marc Semeur (about 1677 – 16 March 1703), called La Bonté, came to New France from the diocese of Tulle and married Marie Mourier at St-Jean on the Île d’Orléans on 28 July 1700. He was the first husband of Marie Mourier (born 1685), the seventh great-grandmother of Floyd Amatus Delahorne (1922–2014).
The marriage register describes him as of the company of Monsieur de la Durantaye, aged twenty-three, and a son of Marc Semeur and Jeanne Labbesse; his bride was fifteen. A marriage contract had been signed before the notary Genaple earlier that month. He died at St-Jean on 16 March 1703 and was buried there the next day, after receiving the sacraments, in the presence of his father-in-law Jean Mourier and others. His son Marc was born and baptized at St-Jean on 28 January 1703. His widow married Pierre Galien at St-Jean on 25 June 1704.
