  • The Association des Veillet/te d'Amérique inc (Veillet/te Association of America inc) is a non-profit organization bringing together the descendants of the couple Jean Veillet (1664–1741) and Catherine Lariou (1683–1756), as well as than their related people. This association obtained its letters patent on March 12, 1986, under the third part of the Quebec Companies Act (Canada). Although the Mauricie is historically the main home of the descendants of Veillet/te in America, the Association represents all the descendants in America. In August 2021, more than 22,856 descendants of the ancestral couple Jean Veillet and Catherine Lariou were listed in America. These descendants have made a great mark on history for 354 years, particularly in Quebec, Canada and New England. Jean Veillet turns out to be the sole ancestor of the Veillet/te in America; Jean Veillet married on November 19, 1698 in Batiscan to Catherine Lariou. In 1667, he left the "rue du Vieux-Marché" in Saint-André-de-Niort to embark on a sailing vessel in La Rochelle (France) bound for New France. After his military service, he settled on a farm along the Rivière à Veillet, in Sainte-Geneviève-de-Batiscan, Quebec. According to Louis Duchesne of Institut de la statistique du Québec, the surname Veillette was in 2006 in 385th position among the surnames most used, that is to say 0.051% of the population of the province. In the administrative region of Mauricie, the patronymic Veillette represents 0.55% of the population. In the Mékinac Regional County Municipality, the surname Veillette accounts for 1.36% of the population; MRC Le Centre-de-la-Mauricie Regional County Municipality, 0.47%; MRC of Francheville Regional County Municipality, 0.61%; RCM of Abitibi-Ouest Regional County Municipality, 0.47%.
