Languages Spoken or Written French, some Huron. Biographical Text Claude Chauchetière was an artist, a mystic, a mathematician, and a Jesuit missionary. He entered the Jesuit novitiate at Bordeaux in 1663 on his 18thbirthday, after witnessing the death of a priest who was meant to depart for a mission in Canada prior to his death. Chauchetière came to Quebec for the Huron mission in 1677 and spent a year at Sault-Saint-Louis, before moving onto the Iroquois mission at Saint-François-Xavier. These missions were both meant to convert the Huron and Iroquois populations of New France to becoming Jesuits. Chauchedière continued contributing to the missions until his death in Quebec in 1709.
