Actually I do think I am in error now:
From what I see there seems to be two sources of the name:
L'Hussier........refering to the role of Bailiff...
and
often found attached to the Melon family of Paris......
so it would read: for ex: a Jean Melon l'Hussier
as in John Melon Sheriff
I have also seen the name Lussiere attached to persons originally from Lozone region of France.
What I have been tracking is the morphing of Lisoures to Lesieur...........Lisoures referring to a family origin out of Lisieux France in Normandy..
and it tracks to Paris around the year 1200 AD........and becomes Lesueur and Lesieur.........
When I saw Lussier in Canada, I at first thought it was another example of mutilitated spellings from former French names and was probably one of the many versions of Lesieur.
However, now I think I am probably wrong on this matter.
Dominque delaMothe Lussiere........a companion in Canada with La Salle.........seems to be from the Lozone or Langueduc regions
while
Jacques Lussier seems to be clearly from Paris.
I apologize for the confusion.
Cheers
