Carpenter Jean Gaubert’s home
This engraving shows the facade of a Québec City residence, now 72 Saint-Louis Street. It is the home of carpenter Jean Gaubert. On Governor Guy Carleton’s orders, General Richard Montgomery’s remains were brought here so that Gaubert could make him a coffin. Taken apart in 1890, the house was rebuilt in the United States as a tourist attraction.
