Many of the Richard families in Canada trace their ancestry to Michel Richard dit Sansoucy, who settled in Port-Royal, Acadia in the mid-1600s.This web site is intended to be a compendium of the research done on him and his descendants. Much has been published on this family in various historical books and family histories, some of it accurate, some not so accurate. As is often the case with family histories, once something is in print, it often is considered to be "gospel". It is my hope that this web site will facilitate a critical examination and discussion of the facts, legends, and myths surrounding this Richard family and to allow us Richard researchers and descendants to learn more about our origins and our relatives' contributions to early America. The best way to separate fact from fiction and to resolve conflicting information is to go back to the primary sources (see Documenting Your Genealogy Research - Guide to Citing Sources). These include records of marriages, births and baptisms, deaths and burials, census listings, Bible records, tax lists, probate and land records, etc. The information in the descendant listings on this web site will include documentation of the primary sources as much as possible, and transcriptions of many of those sources will be presented in links below. This is a working document and not necessarily definitive, since much of it is based upon information found on the Internet or in published secondary sources. It will be modified and (hopefully) improved as more researchers provide input and, most importantly, evidence.
My database currently includes 696 descendants, of whom 669 carry the Richard surname.
Historical Narrative
The land of Acadia was a originally a French colony in what is now Nova Scotia in Canada's Maritime Provinces. Since the initial settlement of Acadia by the French in 1604, control of the colony was contested by France and England, exchanging hands a number of times. England captured Acadia's capital of Port Royal (now Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia) in 1710 and the resulting Treaty of Utrecht (1713) put control of Acadia into the hands of the British. The descendants of the French settlers of Acadia (including the Richard family) remained there, living under British rule until most of them were deported in 1755 for refusing to take an oath of loyalty to Great Britain at the outset of the last of North America's French and Indian Wars (1756-1763). Some of the Acadians escaped deportation by fleeing westward into Quebec, into the backwoods of New Brunswick, or on the various islands of the region.
Michel Richard dit Sansoucy arrived in Acadia by the early 1650s, settling in Port-Royal. (Some say that he was a soldier under Emanuel Leborgne. Can anyone provide a primary source to support that?) Shortly after arriving (ca. 1656), he married Madeleine Blanchard (daughter of Jean Blanchard and Radegonde Lambert). They had 10 children: sons Rene, Pierre, Martin, and Alexandre, and daughters Catherine, Anne, Madeleine, Marie, Cecile, and Marguerite. The daughters married into the Brossard, Terriot, Babin, Vincent, Forest, and Leblanc families, respectively. After Madeleine Blanchard's death (sometime between 1678 and the early 1680s), Michel remarried to Jeanne Babin (daughter of Antoine Babin and Marie Mercier). Michel and Jeanne had two sons of their own: Michel and (another) Alexandre. Michel Richard dit Sansoucy died (probably in Port-Royal) between 1686 and 1693. His widow Jeanne Babin then remarried to Laurent Doucet. The Richard family lived along the Riviere-Dauphin on the right (southeast) bank upstream of Port-Royal.
Several of the children of Michel Richard and Madeleine Blanchard left Port-Royal (after his death) and moved to Grand-Pre in the Minas Basin (Baie-des-Mines). The descendants of Michel and his two wives remained (for the most part) in Acadia until the French settlers were expelled from that region by the English in the 1750s. While some of the Richard descendants later made their home in New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island, others settled in Quebec (primarily Nicolet County area), and some went much further abroad to Louisiana and even back to France.
Note: On this web site and in my records, I have chosen to omit the correct French accent marks (e.g., grave, acute, circumflex) since I am not fluent in the French language and am using an American English keyboard. My apologies go out to my French-Canadian cousins! | Richard, Anne-Marie (I2364)

King's Daughters
Les Filles du Roi
There once was a poet who by influencing public opinion cast a dark shadow over the role of those young women who known as the King's Daughter/Les Filles du Roi. These women actually came to New France as pioneers to an unknown world where the waters had not yet been chartered. This poet, with the sway of public opinion, claimed these young women were "comfort women" for the soldiers and first pioneers who had come to people a new country. Well nothing could have been further from the truth! In fact, there were indeed witnesses to the arrival and marriages of these women who affirmed the very high moral standards of these pioneering women. These same witnesses rejected without all allegations of improprieties on the part of these women.
The truth of the matter regarding these women is that thanks to their tenacity and to their courage - inherited from their ancestors - the "King's Daughters" are truly the mothers of the French Canadian descendants. They assured the survival and the preservation of a moral and cultural and religious heritage. We should all be proud of the contribution these women made as they stood steadfast beside their counterparts to found a new country.. a new world that would allow us to touch the fibers of their lives and that would help us to know the rich French heritage of which we are all daugthers and sons.
In the first census of 1666, there were 3,215 inhabitants. The King's Daughters, were women who arrived in the colony of New France between 1663 and 1673, under the financial sponsorship of King Louis XIV of France. Most were single French women and many were orphans. Their transportation to Canada and settlement in the colony were paid for by the King. Some were given a royal gift of a dowry of 50 livres/pounds for their marriage to one of the many unmarried male colonists in Canada. These gifts are reflected in some of the marriage contracts entered into by the King's Daughters at the time of their first marriages.
The King's Daughters were part of King Louis XIV's program to promote the settlement of his colony in Canada. Some say that between 713-961 women went to New France. Yves Landry in his book Les Filles du Roi du XVIIième Siècles estimates the number to be 770. Upon arrival and marriage of the first settlers to these women what resulted was a population explosion that contributed to the success of the colony. Many of the millions of people of French Canadian descendants today, not only in Canada but in all of North America and elsewhere, descend from one or more of these courageous women of the 17th century.

MARTIN LEBLOND ET ANNE-FRANÇOISE BISSONNET
(par Denis Leblond #1, 6 octobre 1990)
Martin Leblond est le dixième enfant des ancêtres Nicolas Leblond et Marguerite Leclerc. Il est né le 29
novembre 1676 à Ste-Famille I.O. et baptisé le lendemain en l?église de la Ste-Famille. Le parrain a été Martin
Baucher, fils de Guillaume et de Marie Paradis, et la marraine Marie Lehoux, fille de Jean et d?Élisabeth Drugeon.
Martin devient orphelin avant d?avoir atteint l?âge de 1 an car son père décède en septembre 1677 à l?HôtelDieu
de Québec. Sa mère ne restera pas veuve trop longtemps car une maison sans homme était peu viable dans ces
temps difficiles. Elle épouse Jean Rabouin le 8 septembre 1678 à Ste-Famille ; ce dernier était veuf de Marguerite
Ardion depuis moins d?un an et demeurait à St-Pierre I.O.. La nouvelle famille regroupe donc les sept enfants
Leblond, âgés de 1 an et neuf mois à près de 14 ans, et les huit enfants Rabouin, âgés de moins de 1 an à 14 ans.
Catherine Leblond, l?aînée, est déjà mariée à Jean Riou depuis huit mois ; Marie et Suzanne Rabouin, les aînées sont
engagées comme servantes dans des foyers environnants. Viendront s?ajouter trois autres enfants Rabouin à cette
grande famille. La famille semble avoir vécu à Ste-Famille jusqu?en 1680 et à St-Pierre de 1680 à 1685 pour ensuite
revenir à Ste-Famille sur la terre de Marguerite Leclerc et des héritiers de Nicolas Leblond.
Marguerite Leclerc signe un contrat d?engagement pour son fils Martin Leblond, âgé de 13 ans et demi,
avec Jacques Grouard, maître-serrurier de Québec. Martin y travaillera comme apprenti du 10 avril 1690 au 10 avril
1694.
En 1699, on retrouve Martin Leblond à St-Michel de Ladurantaye alors qu?il est parrain, le 29 avril 1699,
de Jean-Baptiste Guillemet, la marraine étant Anne-Françoise Bissonnet, épouse de Joseph Bonneau, celle qui
deviendra son épouse en 1704, Il est de nouveau parrain, demeurant à St-Michel, à cinq reprises avant de prendre
épouse.
En 1700, il achète une terre à Ladurantaye appartenant à Joseph Leblanc, de St-Jean I.O., laquelle terre il
revendra le 26 août 1704 à Ignace Therrien demeurant aussi à St-Jean I.O.. Il vend également sa part d?héritage lui
étant advenue par le décès de son père à son frère Jean-Baptiste Leblond le 30 septembre 1704. Nous pouvons
supposé qu?il se préparait à prendre épouse car il achète une terre de trois arpents à Ladurantye (territoire du futur
St-Vallier) appartenant en héritage à Louis, Guillaume, Jean-Baptiste et Élisabeth Leroy. Cette terre est voisine de
celle de Nicolas Leroy et de Madeleine Leblond, sa s?ur.
Devant le notaire Louis Chambalon, de Québec, Martin Leblond et Anne-Françoise Bissonnet signent un
contrat de mariage en date du 14 novembre 1704. Le mariage est célébré à St-Étienne-de-Beaumont le 24 suivant.
Concernant Anne-Françoise Bissonnet, elle est la fille de Pierre Bissonnet et de Marie D?Allon, venus de
France et mariés le 9 octobre 1668 à Québec. Elle est née le 7 et baptisée le 13 juin 1679 à Ste-Famille I.O.. Certains
détails intéressants pourraient être racontés concernant la vie de cette femme avant son mariage avec Martin mais
nous nous contenterons d?en résumer les grandes Lignes. Le 5 mars 1696, elle passe un contrat de mariage avec
Joseph Bonneau et le mariage est célébré le jour même à Ste-Famille. Le 25 juin suivant, elle accouche d?une fille
qui fut baptisée Marie Bissonnet et dont le père naturel était Augustin Rouer, Sieur de la Cardonnière, fils de Louis
Rouer de Villeray, procureur du comté St-Laurent, avec qui le père d?Anne-Françoise avait conclu certaines affaires
concernant la location du moulin à farine de Ste-Famille. Cette fille naturelle ne semble pas avoir vécu avec sa mère
car elle décède le 6 avril 1708 à Ste-Foy.
Le couple Bonneau-Bisonnet achète, le 14 août 1697, une terre à Beaumont de Jean Corneau. Elle met au
monde un premier fils, Joseph Bonneau, le 20 janvier 1699 qui fut baptisé à St-Michel le 27 suivant. Un second fils,
Joseph-Aupgustin Bonneau, naît le 25 janvier 1702 et est baptisé à St-Michel le 27 janvier. La vie d?AnneFran^coise
sera bientôt assombrie par une suite de malheurs. L?année 1703 a été témoin d?une épidémie de picote
qui a ravagé la colonie. Elle voit partir l?un après l?autre ses fils et son mari. Ce fut d?abord son mari le 4 janvier, son
bébé Joseph-Augustin le 25 janvier et son fils aîné Joseph le 9 décembre 1703.
Revenons à notre nouveau couple, Martin et Anne-Françoise, qui s?installe donc sur la nouvelle terre de
Laduarntaye, terre qui verra naître tous leurs enfants qui seront au nombre de huit. Vous trouverez à la fin de ce texte
un résumé succinct des renseignements les concernant.
Le 13 octobre 1707 a lieu la vente par Martin et Anne-Françoise à René Patry de la terre que cette dernière
a hérité de son premier mari Joseph Bonneau. Le 22 octobre suivant, Martin agrandit sa propriété en faisant
l?acquisition de la terre voisine située au sud-ouest, terre appartenant à Jeanne Lelièvre, veuve de Nicolas Leroy. Ils
possèdent donc six arpents de terre de front sur le fleuve sur quarante arpents de profondeur. Ses voisins sont, au
sud-ouest, René Cochon et, au nord-est, Nicolas Leroy et Marie-Madeleine Leblond, sa s?ur. Le 27 juillet 1709,
Martin vend à son frère Jean-Baptiste sa part d?héritage lui étant advenue par le décès de sa mère en 1704. Comme la
première des deux terres voisines n?avait jamais été officiellement concédée, un contrat de concession survient le 23
octobre 1721 entre les Religieuses de l?Hôpital Général, seigneuresses de St-Michel, et Martin Leblond.
Le 13 avril 1722, Martin intervient comme estimateur lors de l?inventaire des biens de Nicolas Leroy et de
feue Marie-Madeleine Leblond, décédée le 4 février 1722. Martin est également mentionné, le 19 février 1722,
comme étant le voisin au sud-ouest lors du partage des biens de Nicolas Leroy et de feue sa s?ur.
Le 6 octobre 1727, Martin achète un demi arpent de terre de Jean Marier et Jeanne Tarreau. Il complète
l?achat de cette terre de deux arpents en achetant, le 16 août 1739, un arpent et demi appartenant à M. Pierre Leclerc,
curé de St-Vallier, pour l?avoir acquis de Laurent Tarreau le 23 septembre 1728. Marin en reçoit un titre de
concession officiel par les Religieuses de l?Hôpital Général de Québec le 10 novembre 1744. Cette propriété est la
seconde terre au nord-est de sa terre de six arpents.
Par un contrat de donation du 6 septembre 1741, nous apprenons qu?il possède également deux autres
terres ; la première qu?il a acquise pour son fils Joseph et qui mesure 3 arpents sur quarante sur la première ligne de
concession de St-Michel ; la deuxième, de 3 arpents de large se situe dans le second rang de St-Michel. Cette
donation ainsi que celle faite le 15 mars 1742 seront à l?origine d?une poursuite judiciaire de la part de ses filles et de
leurs époux par une requête en date du 9 mars 1750. Il a été démontré que Martin avait, sous la forte influence de
son épouse, trop avantagé les garçons par rapport aux filles.
Anne-Françoise Bissonnet est inhumée le 12 janvier 1747 à l?âge de 67 ans à St-Vallier ayant été précédée
par Joseph le 6 décembre et par Louis le 29 décembre précédents. Martin, voyant ses forces s?éteindre, fait cession
de ses biens à ses héritiers le 21 octobre 1760 et est inhumé à St-Vallier le 29 novembre suivant, le jour de son
quatre-vingt-quatrième anniversaire.
Voici en quelques mots l?histoire de ce couple de première lignée québécoise qui a su faire parler de lui et
se faire connaître par ses acquis (4 terres de 3 arpents de large avec tout ce que cela comporte), par ses présences
publiques (parrain à 32 reprises et marraine à 9 occasions) et par les sept enfants qui se sont multipliés et dispersés
en Beauce, Thetford Mines, Sherbrooke, Québec et jusqu?au Maine, New Hampshire et au Connecticut.

Note about Thibodeau;
Note:
Today THIBODEAUX is among the more common surnames of French origin in L ouisiana. The name is not uncommon in French Canada, where it occurs es pecially in and around Montreal and in the Maritime Provinces; it is al so frequent in New England, chiefly in Maine and New Hampshire, reflect ing immigration from French Canada. In both Louisiana and Canada the na me may stem principally from Thibodeaux families who settled in Acadia i n the seventeenth century.
Pierre Thibodeaux was born in 1631 in Poitou (Poirou), France. He was t he son of Mathurin "Rhibauda" and Marie Debeau. He came to Port Royal, A cadia, in 1654 where he married in 1660 Jeanne Terriot, daughter of Jea n Terriot and Perrine Bourg (Reau). The census of 1671 shows Pierre and J eanne had six sons
* Pierre,
* Jean,
* Antoine,
* Pierre, Michel, and
* Claude
* and eight daughters.
Pierre was the founder of Chipody, Acadia, known today as Shipody, New B runswick. He died at Port Royal on December 26, 1704. Marie Thibodeaux, d aughter of Pierre and Marie, was born at Port Royal in 1661. She marrie d Antoine Landry in 1681 at Grand Pre', Acadia.

So many spelling of Terrot here is why
1. Theriault/Theriot in its modern spelling, was spelled several different ways by the ancient record-keepers and spelled differently as well by researchers. For many census-takers, spelling depended largely on pronunciation. Some of the variations known todate include:
Tareau, Tario, Téio, Terau, Terault, Tereaux, Teriau, Teriault, Teriaut, Terio, Teriot, Terrault, Terreau, Terreault, Terriau, Terriaud, Terriault, Terriaux, Terrieux, Terrio, Terriot, Terriou, Terrot, Teryo, Thario, Therall, Therault, Therialt, Theriatt, Theriau, Thériaud, Theriault, Thériault, Theriaut, Therieau, Theriet, Therioult, Theroux, Therriau, Thérriault, Therio, Theriott, Thériot, Therrio, Therriot, Theuriet, Theurillat, Thierault, Thieret, Thierie, Thieriot, Thierot, Thierrot, Thireault, Thirieau, Thiriet, Thiriez, Thirion, Thiriot, Tourault.
Consistent with the spelling found in the Census of 1671, contemporary genealogists Arsenault [ref: 1] and Beauregard [ref: 15] use 'TERRIAU' for the first two generations (Jehan and his children) and 'TERRIOT' for the third generation (Arsenault). Lanctot [ref: 9] uses 'THÉRRIOT' for Jehan's family name perhaps based on his understanding of the spelling currently used in France. The census notwithstanding, Stephen A. White in his new work "DICTIONNAIRE GÉNÉALOGIQUE DES FAMILLES ACADIENNES", chose THÉRIOT as his preferred variant with TERRIOT and THÉRIAULT as alternatives. Although some of these choices demand explanations, no explanations are offered by any of these researchers.
It is interesting to note however that in the history of Acadia, the periodic census reveals a very definite consensus (no pun intended) on one particular variant. The following table identifies the variants which show up in each census:
CENSUS
VARIANT
1671 PORT ROYAL TERRIAU
1678 PORT ROYAL TERRIOT
1686 PORT ROYAL, BAIE DES MINES TERRIOT
1693 PORT ROYAL, MINAS TERRIOT, TERIOT
1695 Sr D'AMOURS TERRIOT, TERIOT
1698 PORT ROYAL TERRIOT
1700 PORT ROYAL TERRIOT
1701 PORT ROYAL, LES MINES TERRIOT
1703 PORT ROYAL, LES MINES, COBEQUID TERRIOT
1707 PORT ROYAL, MINAS, COBEQUID TERRIOT, THERRIOT
1714 PORT ROYAL, RIV AUX CANARDS TERRIOT
1751 LES MINES TERRIOT
It is clear that for nearly one hundred years the 'TERRIOT' variant was recorded repeatedly by several different census takers as reported to them by several different Terriot families and generations of Terriot's. Thus, we have chosen to use the ?Terriot? variant for the early Acadian generations (pre-Deportation). For the post-Deportation generations, we use the variant as recorded in our sources. But in general, the predominant variants for the those generations are 'Theriault' for the Canadian families and 'Theriot' for the Louisianan families. The modern variant that is currently used in France is 'Thérriot' or 'Terriot'.
So to summarize, we use the 'TERRIOT' form of the family name in this archive for the first five generations of the family for the following reasons: (1) it is a variant that is most commonly found in the census records of Acadia, (2) it is one of the forms still used today in the TERRIOT ancestral region of France, (3) it is a variant identified and acknowledged by many researchers including most recently Stephen White, and (4) it more clearly shows the evolution of the name to 'THERRIOT' in the early 1700's and then to the Louisiana 'THERIOT' variation and the Canadian variations 'THERIAULT', 'THÉRIAULT, 'THÉRRIAULT'.
Finally, a note regarding Jehan's first name. Jehan is the medieval version of our contemporary 'Jean'. Going back earlier to the 15th century, it was Jehanne D'Arc, not Jeanne D'Arc who pushed the English off the continent. Although some researchers consider Jehan to be archaic and prefer the modern 'Jean', I think that from a historic viewpoint, using the medieval form sets the timeframe for this important person. There is also an distinction to be made in the pronunciation because the medieval form has two syllables compared to the monosyllabic modern 'Jean'. And so, for us in our Archive, it will be 'Jehan TERRIOT'.
2. In the 1671 Census of Acadia [ref: 4], Perrine's maiden name is recorded as 'Rau' or 'Reau'. In other records, her maiden name is recorded as Ruau, Bau, Beau, or Breau. No records exist of the identity of her parents. So, much speculation exists today as to Perrine's real maiden name. But it is very clear that in the 1671 Cenus of Acadia, her name is recorded as 'Rau' or 'Reau' depending on the interpretation of the letters 'e' and 'a'.
So, for the record-keepers and genealogists, there is no controversy as to the record. But for others who are interested in determining the history of the Theriault family, there are several questions.
First, is there a chance that her name was not correctly recorded? The answer to that is of course there is a very good chance that her name was not correctly recorded. The principle fact that brings that name into question is that there is no knowledge of the 'Reau' or 'Rau' family every having lived in the ancient province of Poitou.
Census-takers, immigration officials, cartographers have notoriously misrecorded names either through lack of written information, ignorance or cultural or language differences. Some of the more notorious examples are reflected in the Ellis Island records of US immigrants as recently as 1920. A quick review of almost any of the US censuses will reveal many very obvious errors in spellings.
In this controversy, the researchers are divided into three groups: (1) those who will either not speculate or who believe that the census-taker correctly recorded her maiden name; (2) those who believe that Perrine's last name was incorrectly recorded and was actually Brault or some variant, and (3) those who believe that Perrine's last name was incorrectly recorded and was actually Bourg or some variant.
Arsenault asserts that Bourg is the correct choice, while Lanctot chooses Breau. Unfortunately, neither support their claims. Steven White in his new work "DICTIONNAIRE GÉNÉALOGIQUE DES FAMILLES ACADIENNES", does not identify Perrine's parents and correctly reflects the record of the Census of 1671. It should be noted that while some published records including the Linda Dubé and Father Cyr genealogies record Antoine Bourg and Antoinette Landry as the father and mother, respectively, of Perrine, there is no established record which supports this claim. So, all claims regarding Perrine's maiden name remain hypothetical. The only fact pertaining to Perrine's maiden name is that the Census of 1671 identifies that name as being 'Reau' or 'Rau'. That is not to say, that her maiden name was actually 'Reau (Rau)', it simply says that the census-taker understood and recorded her name as Perrine Reau (Rau).
If we take a look at the names of the families at that time in Martaisé, La Chaussée and Aulnay, we find that the Bourg name is well established as is also 'Brault' but there is no evidence of the 'Reau', 'Rau' 'Ruau' 'Bau', 'Beau', 'Breau', 'Beaux', or 'Breaux' families during that time period. Here is what Madame Genevieve Massignon had to say about the parochial records of the parish of La (Grande) Chaussée in the ancient province of Poitou, France (I translate from Bona Arsenault's account [ref: 1]) :
"More than half of the records from 1626 to 1650 concern the names of families which we find among the families listed in the 1671 Census of Acadia: Babin, Belliveau, Bertrand, Bour, Brault (in the feminine Braude), Brun..." She continues "The names of Blanchard, Bourg, Brault, Giroire, Godet, Guerin, Poirier, Terriot were among the tenants of the mother of Charles d'Aulnay."
It should also be noted that the 'Ruau' family does exist today in the Loire region of France as does the 'Reau' family but not in the area where the 'Terriot's' are said to have come from. As far as we know, the only instance in which this name shows up in any of the Acadian records and history is in the first Acadian census. For these reasons, we believe that Perrine's maiden name was misunderstood and incorrectly recorded in the Census of 1671. And, since no definitive evidence is available to resolve this ambiguity, we have chosen to side with the 'Brault' advocates simply because the Acadian Census of 1671 gives her last name as Reau or Rau whose pronunciation is phonetically closer to Brault than to Bourg.
3. There are different accounts of the year that Jehan and Perrine Therriot emigrated to Acadia. See EndNote 15 for details.
4. Le Have is the anglicized version of the original name, Le Hève. Le Have was actually the government seat of Acadia from 1632- 1636.
5. Actually, a more complete account of the sail is given in the "The Sail from La Havre to Le Hève" section.
6. There are some questions regarding our data pertaining to elder Joseph, and his father Claude. Joseph is shown to have been born in Sainte Anne de Pocatiere, PQ in 1726
7. According to some accounts, the last point of departure from France was La Havre. See "The Sail from La Havre to Le Hève" section.
8. Not far from Roiffe is a 'working' castle, Chevigny located a very short distance and almost due east of Roiffe. The family who owns the 'chateau' are there to welcome the visitors who are welcome to tour certain parts of the castle. The grounds are beautifully manicured. It makes for a very pleasant day visit. We also recommend Chenonceau and Chambord, in the order. The two are further east not too far.
9. Our 'Joseph T. Theriault' archive is largely based on three sources: (1) the Theriault genealogy research of Father Louis J. Cyr [ref: 16], (2) the compilation of Theriault family data by Linda Dube [ref:10] and information received from individual family members.

12. During our visit with M/Mme Reno Therriot of Loudun, France in May 1993, Monsieur Therriot explained that Jehan Terriault had worked as an apprentice in a major project to reclaim the marshlands around La Rochelle. This work was apparently conducted under the direction of an order of monks from the Netherlands who were skilled at dyke-building and land reclamation. Monsieur Therriot is genealogist for the Therriot family in France. William Faulkner Rushton[ref: 14] makes reference to these projects in his book and of the role of the Dutch in the land-reclamation projects. He writes that a "mid-century expedition brought to Port Royal colonists who were familiar with Dutch-aided land-reclamation projects along the western coast of France." Rushton also discusses the possibility that the Acadians may also have acquired or refined their dyke-building skills from the local Micmac Indians in Acadia.
13. Here, a ?seigneurie? is an area owned by a Lord or ?Seigneur?, in this case Lord d?Aulnay. To help with the pronunciation of some of the other French words, here are a few pronunciations: La Chaussée (?la show-say?), Aulnay (?ol-nay?), Martaizé (?mar-tay-zay?)
14. This note was intentionally left blank.
15. There are three schools of thought on the sequence of events leading to Jehan and Perrine?s move to Acadia:
Father Lanctôt who believes that they both came over in 1632 to help settle La Hève presents the first hypothesis. The second hypothesis as presented by Arsenault is that Jehan and Perrine took the voyage together in 1636 and settled in Port Royal, one year after their wedding. And there are others like Denis Beauregard iin his 'Dictionnaire Généalogique de nos Origines (DGO)', [ref: 15] who goes no farther than to say that "Peut-etre arrive entre 1632 et 1636/Probably arrived between 1632 and 1636". Source: Robert Rumilly's historical reference on people in French Acadia or English Acadia.
The third is a hypothesis that I do not believe is yet documented so we will give it the name, the ?Theriault Hypothesis?. It is far from original and is shared by many others. It is based on interpretations of several arguments and facts, which I will present here.
The hypothesis is that Jehan first came over by himself as a single man in 1632 and helped establish the settlement of La Hève. Some time before 1636, he received Charles de Menou?s permission to return to France to marry Perrine with the intent to return with his new bride the following year. At the time, Charles de Menou had similar plans for his bride-to-be, Jeanne Motin. Of course with Isaac de Razilly?s death in November 1635, Charles de Menou abandoned the plan for La Hève and moved the La Hève settlement to Port Royal the following year. Jehan and Perrine arrived in April 1636 with Charles de Menou?s bride-to-be in time to help move the La Hève settlement to Port Royal and start their family.
As noted by Arsenault, it was also the opinion of Father Archangel Godbout, genealogist, that a certain number of these so-called ?select men? subsequently (after their initial arrival to La Hève) married French women and were thus established in Acadia. A related point is also mentioned by Arsenault that ??the colonials who had first come with d?Aulnay had returned to Europe.?
Notwithstanding Mr. Arsenault?s assertions to the contrary, it is generally accepted that Jehan was part of the first expedition in 1632 to La Hève and is widely recorded as such in several museums including at the museum of Pointe-du-Fort in La Have. The basis for Mr. Arsenault?s assertion is Madame Massignon?s research, which shows only that most of the family names of the settlers, recorded in the Acadian census of 1671 were family names from the La Chaussée area. It stops short of identifying specific individuals and clarifying the departure dates for any of specific settlers. For details of Arsenault?s account of these events, see Arsenault Account.
Lanctôt?s hypothesis on the other hand does not explain a serious discrepancy in the marriage year. If it is true that that Jehan and Perrine came over in 1632, why is their marriage date given as 1635? In addition, it is not conceivable (no pun intended) that Jehan and Perrine would marry and not have any children for five years. It is a recorded fact that their first-born, Charles was born in 1637. If they married in 1632 or some time before, can it be that they waited for five years before having their first child? Or, did Father Molin misunderstand the marriage year the same way that he did not understand Perrine?s maiden name correctly. We know as given by Genevieve Massignon that the custom at that time was for a couple to marry just before leaving for the New World. For details of Lanctôt?s account of these events, see Lanctôt Account.

24. The inhabitants of the upper Saint John Valley still to this day consider themselves Acadian instead of French Canadian, largely because of the origins of most of their ancestors from Acadia. In fact, to many the Acadian distinction is even more important than the American-Canadian distinction.
25. The term 'sequencing' is the art of composing music by using a computer and music composition software.
26. On a question to Barry Taylor about sets, he answered: "The playing of sets probably originated with structured folk dancing, which required music to be played to defined lengths corresponding to the completion of a series of planned manoeuvres by the dancers. Scottish country dancing, for example, frequently requires exactly 64 measures of music to complete all the dancing patterns.
Fiddlers playing at 'sessions' also chained tunes together to avoid having to stop after each tune to discuss what to play next. So all players could learn the same tunes and know what was coming next, these 'sets'... especially the well-planned ones... tended to become defined or fixed. Though I don't particularly follow the mould in my arrangements, there are tunes that are traditionally played in a particular order, especially in isolated communities in Prince Edward Island, Cape Breton and areas in Québec. Sets sometimes end with the players repeating the first tune... 'bringing it home' so to speak.
As part of my own entertainment, I prefer to conjure up my own sets... tunes that fit nicely together.
A good example of construction of a new set is The Cricket Set. David Chiasson, who plays some of my midis for his radio program, asked me to sequence a few of his tunes when I had the time and motivation. Two were designed to be played together (the two 'cricket' tunes), and he was planning to write a third at some time in the future make a set. I surprised
him by taking another of his tunes, changing the key, and sandwiching it between the two cricket tunes. Now it's a great little medley with really effective key changes. http://members.home.net/bntaylor/canmidi/cricket.mid
27. Describing the sail to Acadia, Father Lanctôt notes in his book [ref: 29] that "...It is probable that a brother of Perrine Breau, Vincent, was also one of Razilly and Charles de Menou's recruits and on board along with Jehan and Perrine." He writes that Vincent was accompanied by his wife and their three year old son also named Vincent. Lanctôt does not explain why he considers this probable. Arsenault disagrees with Lanctôt and claims that Vincent, the younger came to Acadia apparently on his own around 1652 (at the age of 21). White makes no commitment as to where Vincent, the younger was born or as to when he came to Acadia. If it is true that the Breau's came over with Jehan and Perrine in 1636, then the question must be raised as to what happened to Vincent, the elder and his wife and why did they only have the one child, Vincent?
Similarly, Father Lanctôt also declares unequivocally that Jehan's sister, Perrine and her husband, Martin DuPuy who were also newly-weds, joined Jehan and Perrine in the move to Acadia. Arsenault again disagrees with Lanctôt and asserts that Michel is the DuPuy (Dupuis) progenitor arriving in Acadia around 1648. Again, if Martin and his wife were to have come to Acadia, they should have been identified in the Census of 1671 unless they died in the interim. Here as well, Lanctôt does not explain the basis for his assertion.
28. We are using 'acre' here in the same context as the french word 'arpent' is used in the original text of our source. [ref: 30] 'Arpent' was not only a measurement applied to measure acreage (one 'arpent' is about an acre), but an 'arpent' was always understood to be roughly 200 feet square and could also be used as an expression of length or distance. So to say that you had a river frontage of 'deux arpents / two acres' made sense. And to say that your land ran back to the forests some 'une trentenne d'arpents / some thirty acres' was appropriate usage of the word.
29. François Gautherot who also originated from Martaizé, came to Acadia with Jehan and other men in 1632[ref: 32]. But unlike Jehan who married the 'girl back home', François Gautherot who was about 12 years younger than Jehan, married a local Acadian girl, Edmée Lejeune.
So, it would not be too much to speculate that Jehan and François Gautherot were probably close friends. When they moved from La Hève to Port Royal, I believe that they took up lands in the same area about 10km up the river from Port Royal. I further believe that the land marked as belonging to Pierre Lanoue in the 1707 Port Royal Census Takers' Map (shown in the 'Promise of L'Acadie' section) is the land that François was granted when he and Jehan Terriot came to Port Royal. Later, when he married Edmée, the two raised eleven children of which six were sons. Also close by was the family of François Savoie and Catherine Lejeune (Edmée's younger sister) who were neighbors (to the west) of the Terriot's. Although François Savoie arrived a little later than Jehan to Acadia, it would make sense that when he and Catherine married, they would seek the same area where François Gautherot and Edmée lived.
It is also very interesting to note that Edmée Lejeune came from a very ancient Acadian family. Her father is thought to have come to Acadia with Poutrincourt and Biencourt around 1611[ref: 32]. According to Lanctôt and Rameau de Saint-Père ("Une colonie féodale en Amérique, L'Acadie, 1604-1881", vol. 2., p. 318-320), the Lejeune family was a native Acadian Métis family "...established in Mirligouesh (Indian and Métis village) situated between Cap-de-Sable and La-Hève, We know this because François Gautherot and François Savoye married two daughters from the Lejeune family between 1638 and 1650." Lanctôt goes on to say that three of François Gautherot's sons apparently became 'coureurs de bois / backwoods runners' with the Métis and the Indians. This is evident in that Jean, François and Germain disappeared from the census rolls as each became adults. Two of François Gautherot's sons, Claude and Charles moved to Grand-Pré and we have no records of the other sons. All of the six sons were recorded in the Census of 1671 but in 1678, only two, Claude and Charles were recorded at the ages of 20 and 18, respectively. By 1693, no Gautherot heads of households are recorded in Port Royal. The only remaining members of the Gautherot family at that time were the daughters and their mother: Jeanne (married to Pierre Lanoue), Marguerite (married to Jacob Giroud), Marie (married to Claude Terriot), Marie (married to Michel DePuy) and François' widow, Edmée (at age 71). Therefore by 1707 (the time of our 1707 Port Royal Census Takers' Map shown on the "Promise of L'Acadie" section), there were no Gautherot families in Port Royal. The old Gautherot land was apparently inherited and occupied by one of the remaining daughters, most likely the youngest daughter, Jeanne who married Pierre Lanoue. Pierre Lanoue arrived late in Acadia around 1668 and married Jeane Gautherot in 1681. By then, the remaining Gautherot sons were gone to Grand Pré leaving François Gautherot, if he was still living, and his wife Edmée with their daughters.
