His land was located in Charlesbourg, Quebec City, Quebec. In 1672, he purchased 15 acres (61,000 m2) additional for the price of a chicken and a rent of 15 sol en argent and 3 deniers to be paid once a year on St. Martin's Day.
In 1685, he and his family moved to Rivière-Ouelle, Quebec.
They had six children, all of whom married and produced offspring. The first and last were male. His first son sired 13 children, his second son ten.
Death
He died on 1727 in La Pocatière, Quebec.
Name Confusion
His first son (born October 4, 1669 in St. Joseph de Charlesbourg) was given the same name.
Source of name
The name Lagace is likely related to the French word "gâchette", meaning trigger or sharpshooter.[3] It was likely a military sobriquet.[4]
