About Batiscan
In 1639, the seigneury of Batiscan was granted to the Jesuits; their objective was the evangelization and the settling of the Indigenous communities living there. The territory of the seigneury is more or less consistent with the current territory of the municipalities of Batiscan and Sainte-Geneviève-de-Batiscan. The first row lots along the river were allocated to the censitaires by the seigneury. The territory of Batiscan has three rows which are arranged parallel to the river; these ranges extend to the south bank of the Batiscan river. The civil erection of the municipality was promulgated in 1855. The municipality of Batiscan is on the northwest shore of the St. Lawrence River, more or less between the confluence of the Champlain and St. Lawrence rivers on the west side and the limit
