 With the exception of the Bergeron House, most other buildings were built by various family members (including the Bernier-Montminy House, originally built by Benjamin Pâquet Sr.).Although most were originally agricultural estates, they are now left as regular residences, with most dependencies having been torn down.The site was first identified in 1984 by a review from the then Les Chutes-de-la-Chaudière Regional County Municipality.
