He represented L'Islet in the Legislative Assembly of Quebec from 1867 to 1878 as a Conservative member. He was born at Saint-Jean-Port-Joli, the son of Antoine Gaspard Verreau and Hélène Fournier. Verreault was educated there and at the Collège de Sainte-Anne-de-la-Pocatière. He qualified to practise as a notary in 1860 and practised in Saint-Jean-Port-Joli and Monmagny. In 1863, he married Paméla Couillard Dupuis, the daughter of Jean-Baptiste Couillard Dupuis. Verreault was mayor of Saint-Jean-Port-Joli from 1880 to 1893 and warden for L'Islet County from 1882 to 1893.
