<\/div>\n

L\u2019agriculture a \u00e9t\u00e9 le premier moteur du d\u00e9veloppement de la Beauce, mais on retrouva tout le m\u00eame quelques petits marchands de bois dans la r\u00e9gion. Parmi les premiers \u00e0 s\u2019int\u00e9resser aux for\u00eats beauceronnes au 17e\u00a0si\u00e8cle, on retrouve la famille de John Caldwell, quatri\u00e8me seigneur de la seigneurie de Saint-\u00c9tienne. Au milieu du 19e\u00a0si\u00e8cle, alors que l\u2019exploitation foresti\u00e8re<\/strong> \u00e0 plus grande \u00e9chelle prend de l\u2019ampleur en Beauce, un des noms qui ressort le plus est celui de la famille Breakey, install\u00e9e \u00e0 Chaudi\u00e8re Mills (aujourd\u2019hui Sainte-H\u00e9l\u00e8ne-de-Breakeyville). L\u2019histoire de cette famille est trop riche pour \u00eatre contenue dans un seul article, donc nous avons d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de l\u2019aborder en trois parties<\/strong>. Pour aujourd\u2019hui, nous nous concentrons sur le parcours de celui qui a d\u2019abord \u00e9tabli la famille Breakey dans l\u2019industrie du bois \u00e0 Chaudi\u00e8re Mills et en Beauce :<\/p>\n

Hans Denaston Breakey (ca1809-1863)\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hans Denaston Breakey quitte son Irlande natale vers 20\u00a0ans pour rejoindre de la famille dans l\u2019\u00e9tat de New York. Le bateau qui le transporte fait toutefois naufrage dans le Saint-Laurent et le force \u00e0 s\u2019arr\u00eater \u00e0 Pointe-L\u00e9vis o\u00f9 il d\u00e9cide de s\u2019\u00e9tablir vers 1830. C\u2019est l\u00e0 qu\u2019il commence \u00e0 travailler dans l\u2019industrie du bois, d\u2019abord comme employ\u00e9 dans un parc \u00e0 bois et ensuite comme propri\u00e9taire. Il tient \u00e9galement une \u00e9picerie dans sa maison. Il \u00e9pouse Theresa Murray<\/strong> et le couple aura six<\/strong> enfants.<\/p>\n

En 1846, Hans Denaston Breakey et son beau-fr\u00e8re, Charles King<\/strong> (un n\u00e9gociant de bois originaire de Lotbini\u00e8re), s\u2019associent pour acheter les anciennes installations de sir John Caldwell \u00e0 Chaudi\u00e8re Mills. Les associ\u00e9s y font construire un moulin \u00e0 scie d\u2019envergure importante. Ensemble, ils vont entreprendre la coupe du pin jaune dans la r\u00e9gion de Saint-Joseph-de-Beauce avec l\u2019aide de leur agent James McCaffry, un r\u00e9sident de Sainte-Marie. C\u2019est l\u2019entreprise de Hans Denaston Breakey qui amorce la tradition du transport par flottage (drave) sur la rivi\u00e8re Chaudi\u00e8re, \u00e0 partir de 1847. C\u2019est effectivement par ce moyen que, pendant les 100\u00a0ann\u00e9es qui suivront, l\u2019entreprise exp\u00e9diera vers Chaudi\u00e8re Mills le bois provenant de ses exploitations le long des rivi\u00e8res du Loup et Metgermette ainsi qu\u2019aux abords de la rivi\u00e8re Portage et du ruisseau Wilson<\/strong>. La photographie suivante montre d’ailleurs l’un des barrages de l’entreprise sur la rivi\u00e8re du Loup en 1908.<\/p>\n

En 1859, quand les deux associ\u00e9s se s\u00e9parent, Hans Denaston Breakey est \u00e0 la t\u00eate d\u2019une entreprise d\u2019envergure embauchant plusieurs travailleurs. Le recensement de 1861 le d\u00e9signe d\u2019ailleurs comme \u00e9tant propri\u00e9taire de neuf maisons dans lesquelles vivent des familles travaillant au moulin.<\/p>\n

Le 10\u00a0mai 1863<\/strong>, Hance Denaston Breakey d\u00e9c\u00e8de \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 54\u00a0ans et son fils ain\u00e9, William Isaiah<\/strong>, prend la rel\u00e8ve de l\u2019entreprise. Peu de temps plus tard, c\u2019est un autre de ses fils, John Breakey,<\/strong> qui prendra en charge les op\u00e9rations et William Isaiah Breakey se retirera compl\u00e8tement des affaires de l\u2019entreprise en 1870. C\u2019est sur ce personnage que se concentrera la deuxi\u00e8me partie de cette s\u00e9rie d\u2019articles sur la famille Breakey.<\/p>\n
