Marie Rollet was born in 1580 in Paris. Little is known about her parents, including their names, or about her life before marriage. We do know that she had at least one elder brother, Claude Rollet (1578-1643) who would accompany her to the New World. She was educated, at least to the extent that she could read and write and later help run her husband’s business.
She married Louis Hébert in July 1602 at St. Martin’s Parish in Paris. Though Louis’ father had been a wealthy man once and a familiar presence at the court of Catherine de Medici, he had succumed to debts and left Louis and his new family with little. Louis purchased a decrepid house at Saint-Germain-des-Pres, Rue de la Petite-Seine where they stayed.
They had three children: Anne (1602-1619), Marie-Guillemette (1608-1684) and Guillaume (1614-1639). The six years between each of the births was no doubt due to her husband’s passion for the New World. Louis travelled to New France three times between 1606 and 1617. During the first two trips, Marie remained in Paris, cared for their children and ran her husband’s apothecary shop. Louis was to send for his family when he was ready but both trips ended in failure.
