Grade 7 History- Seigneurie Map

Your map of a New France seigneurie is due by the end of period 4 on Wednesday, March 27th. You are expected to fill the paper that I gave you. Everything that you would expect to find on a seigneurie and the individual habitant farms should be indicated in some way on the map. Think about the day to day lives of the Seigneur and the habitant families.

• What would they need to have a successful, functioning farm through all the seasons of the year?
• How many habitant farms might a Seigneur have on his land?
• What might be needed on each farm? on the seigneurie?
• What crops are they farming? Does that make a difference?

Above all, a map should be clear, neat, organized and easy to read.
