In total, 770 young women known as the "King's Daughters" (filles du roi) were sent to New France (now Canada) between 1663 and 1673. These women were encouraged to immigrate to help populate the colony and marry the settlers. The initiative was part of a broader effort by King Louis XIV to establish a stable and prosperous French presence in North America.
