Lt. General (not military designation) of Port Royal. Farmer

Lieutenant-General Michel Boudrot was also known as Michel Boudreaux. He was born about 1600/1 in Cougnes, Diocese of La Rochelle, Aunis, France. Between 1640 and 1641 Michel, married Michelle Aucoin, in Cougnes, Diocese of La Rochelle, Aunis, France. Lieutenant-General Michel Boudrot and Michelle Aucoin immigrated about 1642 to Acadia, Canada, with Governor Aulney. Lieutenant-General Michel Boudrot and Michelle Aucoin appeared on the Census of 1671 in Port-Royal, Acadia, Canada. Michel was listed as 71 years old and Michelle as 53 years old. He was appointed Lieutenant-General of Port Royal and an Officer of Justice, empowered to pass judgment in civil and criminal cases in 1686. Lieutenant-General Michel Boudrot died before 1693 in Port-Royal, Acadia, Canada, as he is not listed in the 1693 Census.

“Michel Boudreau, who was born in France around 1600 and who settled in Acadia during the 1630s, is the ancestor of the Acadian family of that name.  He was probably recruited by Gov. Charles d'Aulnay since he was present at the baptism of the governor's daughter, Marie d'Aulnay, on Sept. 21, 1639, in his capacity as First Trustee of Port-Royal.  He was also one of the signatories of an attestation favorable to d'Aulnay's works in 1687.  At the Port-Royal census of 1671, he was 71 years old and the father of a family of 11 children, three of whom were married. He had married Michelle Aucoin in France. In 1686, he was lieutenant general and judge of the Port-Royal tribunal.  His son Charles settled at Pisiguit and Claude at Grand Pre, while Jean and Michel went to Beaubassin. His other sons stayed at Port Royal, including Abraham, who was a navigator and merchant.  He traded with Boston on his shallop, the Marie.  In January 1693, Commander de Villebon sent him on a mission to Boston where he was to make discreet inquiries about the state of affairs there and to report to him.  He seems to have acquitted himself of his mission with success.  Following in the footsteps of Abraham, several descendants of Michel Boudreau and Michelle Aucoin became navigators.”  [Telegraph-Journal, Monday, July 25, 1994; p. A8]

The name Boudrot is thought to refer to a descendant of Botthar, an army messenger.

There story and those that are related to us. Michel Boudrot, was born in France around 160I and settled in Port Royal, Nova Scotia, then Acadia during the 1630s, is the ancestor of the Acadian family of that name. He was probably recruited by Gov. Charles d'Aulnay since he was present at the baptism of the governor's daughter, Marie d'Aulnay, on Sept. 21, 1639, in his capacity as First Trustee of Port-Royal. He was also one of the signatories of an attestation favourable to d'Aulnay's works in 1687. At the Port-Royal census of 1671, he was 71 years old and the father of a family of 11 children, three of whom were married. He had married Michelle Aucoin ABOUT 1641. In 1686, he was lieutenant general and judge of the Port-Royal tribunal. His son Charles settled at Pisiguit (Windsor, NS) and Claude at Grand-Pre, while Jean and Michel went to Beaubassin (Amherst, NS). His other sons stayed at Port-Royal, including Abraham my wife's direct descendant, who was a navigator and merchant. He traded with Boston on his shallop, the Marie. In January 1693, Commander de Villebon sent him on a mission to Boston where he was to make discreet inquiries about the state of affairs there and to report to him. He seems to have acquitted himself of his mission with success.

From Port Royal, these descendants had various residences. Before finally arriving on Isle Madame on Cape Breton Island they lived for periods of time on St. Pierre & Miquelon, French Islands south of the southeast coast of the Province of Newfoundland (still owned by France), Madeleine Island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and finally Isle Madame, one of the great seaport areas of the 19th and early part of the 20th century. Following in the footsteps of Abraham, several descendants of Michel Boudrot and Michelle Aucoin became navigators. In 1755, the Boudrot family was a large one and established in several communities in Acadia. This family was deported in several places in North America and in Europe. Several can be found in different New England colonies, including Massachusetts, Philadelphia, Connecticut and Louisiana. Many were thrown in prisons in southern England (Bristol and Southampton in particular), and were later transported to France after the Treaty of Paris, in 1763. These families were established at Belle-Isle-en-Mer, Cherbourg and Saint-Malo in Northern France. Several of those families found a way of returning to Acadia. Among them, the family of Germain Boudreau who was one of the pioneers of Cheticamp in Cape Breton. Several Boudreau families living at Beaubassin, Î le Saint-Jean and Cape Breton were able to escape the Deportation and found refuge in Quebec. They are to be found in different communities but notably in the Nicolet, Repentigny and Deschambault areas. Others made their way to the & Icirc; les-de-la-Madeleine at Petit de Grat on Isle Madame in Cape Breton. Several families settled in New Brunswick in the Memramcook Saint Anselme area, in Caraquet and in Petit-Rocher. The family of Pierre Boudreau and Madeleine Melanson from Port-Royal established itself at Memramcook. Their son, Isaac Boudreau, became the captain of a company of Acadians who supported the American War of Independence. Another of his sons settled at Inkerman in the northern part of the province. Joseph Boudreau, son of Anselme and Marguerite Gaudet of Beaubassin, found refuge at Restigouche on Chaleur Bay where he married Jeanne Hache in 1761. He later lived during a few years on Miscou before settling in Caraquet. He died at Nipisiguit in 1797 However, he is not the sole ancestor of that family in Petit-Rocher since another Boudreau, Joseph-Athanase, who had lived for several years at Deschambault, Quebec, also settled in Petit-Rocher at the close of the 18th century. The latter was a miller and is the ancestor of the Boudreau's of Beresford.

http://annapolisheritagesociety.com/genealogy/family-histories/acad... The Acadian Boudreau Family The Boudreau family in North America descends from early Acadians Michel Boudrot and his wife, Michelle Aucoin. Michel Boudrot, b. c. 1601, perhaps of the parish of Notre-Dame-de-Cougnes, near La Rochelle, France, was living in Port-Royal by September 1639 when, as one of the settlement’s two syndics (community representatives), he witnessed the baptism of Governor d’Aulnay’s eldest daughter, Marie. Within a year or two he was married to Michelle Aucoin, b. near La Rochelle c. 1618, daughter of Martin and Barbé (Minguet) Aucoin. She and her orphaned siblings had arrived in Port-Royal c. 1640 with their widowed step-mother, Marie Sallé.

The Boudreau family apparently thrived despite the political turmoil that periodically engulfed the tiny community. In 1654, the settlement was captured by a combined force of New Englanders and English Roundheads under Robert Sedgewick. It would remain under British control until 1670. During this period, the French inhabitants (the Boudreaus among them) were allowed to retain their property and were guaranteed religious freedom. The return of the area to French jurisdiction marked a period of expansion for the growing settlement. From Port-Royal, second generation Acadians, including several of the Boudreau children, became the founders of Grand-Pré, Beaubassin, Pisiquid, Cobequid and other villages on the tidal marshes of the Bay of Fundy. Michel Boudrot and his wife remained at Port-Royal, where in 1686, at 85 years of age and deaf, he was listed as the lieutenant general of justice (magistrate). He was recommended for replacement shortly afterwards, and he died at Port-Royal between 20 Aug. 1688 (when he was replaced) and the taking of the 1693 census, in which his wife Michelle is listed as a widow. She died 17 Dec. 1706.

Early Acadie was notable for its rapid population growth, facilitated largely by a very low infant mortality rate, and the Boudrots were typical of Acadian families of the time. The household of Michel Boudrot and Michelle Aucoin included eleven children who grew to adulthood and married. Their children:

1. Françoise Boudreau, b. Port-Royal 1642, m. Port-Royal 1663 Étienne Robichaud, b.1640.

2. Jeanne Boudreau, b. Port-Royal 1645, d. Port-Royal 8 May 1710, m. Port-Royal 1666 Bonaventure Theriault, b. Port-Royal 1641 son of Jean and Perrine (Reau) Theriault, d. Grand-Pré 3 May 1731.

Michel Boudrot migrated from France to Acadia.

One of the largest Acadian families[1] stems from one pioneer named Michel Boudrot[3] who was born around 1600.[2] Michel arrived in Acadia before 1639, when he was already mentioned as a 'syndic' trustee in Port Royal. Michel was listed as a farmer in the 1671 census and as the civil and criminal lieutenant general (magistrate) in the 1686 census.[3]
Around 1641, he married Michelle Aucoin.[2] Between about 1642 and 1666, the couple had 11 children: Françoise, Jeanne, Charles, Marguerite, Marie, Jean, Abraham, Michel, Olivier, Claude and François.[2]
Jean owned a lot adjoining the side of the old Fort (which, according to Stephen White was expropriated in 1705 to extend the Fort in Port-Royal). It is not clear how long the family they lived there.
In 1654 Port-Royal was captured by Robert Sedgwick, who led 300 British soldiers and volunteers.[4]:
"The [French] soldiers at Port-Royal, who numbered about 130 … put up a brief defence against Sedgwick. Setting up an ambush between the landing site of the English troops and the fort, the Frenchmen fired on the attackers but proved no match for the experienced
Roundheads. The French soon "took their heels to ye Fort." On August 16 the fort surrendered... Sedgwick granted honourable terms, allowing the defenders to march out of the fort with flags flying, drums beating, and muskets at the ready. The soldiers and employees working at the fort were offered transportation back to France and given enough pelts to cover their wages."[5]
Although the commander of Port Royal left for France, most Acadians, including the Boudrot family, remained in Acadia. They were permitted to retain their land and belongings and were guaranteed religious freedom.[5] Dunn describes life in Acadia during the 16 years of nominal British rule:
"During the years of British rule, most of the Port-Royal population moved upriver away from the town. Using the agricultural practices initiated under D'Aulnay, the Acadians dyked and cultivated extensive salt marshes along the river and raised livestock. Through necessity, residents had reached an accommodation with New England traders who had become their sole source for the goods that they could not produce themselves... New England traders exchanged their goods for Acadian produce and furs... There were seventy to eighty families in the Port Royal area in 1665."
By 1671 the British had ceded Acadia to France and French settlement resumed.[6] Around 1671[7], the family homestead had eight arpents[8] under cultivation and they had 5 cattle and 12 sheep. The family homestead was probably west of the fort on the south bank of the Dauphin (Annapolis) River.[9]
Michel died at Port-Royal between 1688 and 1693.[2]

!Michel Boudreau (Boudrot), who was born in France around 1601 and who settled in Acadia during the !1630s, is the ancestor of the Acadian family of that name. !He was probably recruited by Governor Charles d'Aulnay since he was present at the baptism of the !governor's daughter, Marie d'Aulnaly, on Sept 21 1639, in his capacity as First Trustee of Port Royal. In !1686 Michel Boudrot was a lieutenant general and "juge du lieu" (judge) of the Port Royal tribunal. !He was also one of the signatories of an attestation favorable to d'Aulnay's works in 1687. !At the Port Royal census of 1671, he was 71 years old and the father of 11 children, three of whom were !married. !His son Charles settled at Pisiquit, and Claude at Grand Pre, while Jean and Michel went to Bearbassin. !His other sons stayed at Port Royal, including Abraham, who was a navigator and merchant.

Michel was born in France 1600. He came to Acadie probably with theCommander Issac de Razilly in 1632. Leaving Auray in Bretagne a waveof three ships arrived at the mouth of the river La Heve (now LaHave), at the southern end of the soon to be Island of Acadie on the 8of September. They settled at La Heve instead of Port Royal , whichat the time was being occupied by a small garrison of Scottish. In1636, after the death of commander de Razilly, his succesor, Charlesde Menou d'Aulney, transported the colony to Port Royal which had beenreturned to France. Michel Boudrot and Claude Pettipas are elected asthe first officials in charge of trade for Port Royal, which indicatesthat both of them may have already been living at Port Royal forseveral years. Both were also chosen sometime later as witnesses atthe christening of Marie d'Aulney, daughter of the Governor and JeanneMorttin. " Extract from the baptism 21 September 1639 Port Royal...confirmsthat Marie, daughter of Sieur Charles de Menou, esquire, LieutenantGeneral for the King on the Island of Acadie, Country of New France,was baptized at four o'clock in the afternoon on said day ad that shewas born by him at one o'clock on Wednesday 21 September and that shewas dedicated to the Virgin Mary by Claude Petipas and MonsieurBoudrot, first officials of Port Royal, her god-father being Pierre,son of Pierre Cachet, and her god-mother being Jeanne Trahain,daughter of Guillaume Traihan, marshal and Francoise Corbineau."

When their eldest daughter Francoise received instructions from herhusband Etienne Robichaud to reveal nothing to the census taker, hemade the following record: " Etienne Robichaud didn't want to see me.He left his house and told his wife to tell me nothing about hisbeasts or lands." Father Laurent Molins, as well would be illreceived by two neighbors of Etienne. " Pierre Melanson refused toreveal his age and the quantity of his beasts and lands, and his wifetold me" If I were you, I wouldn't be a like fool searching high andlow for things like this." Pierre Lanoue " told me when I asked him his age that he carried itwell and that he didn't want to give it a way." Michel appears to have been well involved in public life, since in1685, when he was 85 years of age, he received from the King ofFrance, an official letter naming him " Civil and CriminalLieutenant-General of the King of the County and land of Acadie." Hereplaced Abraham Dugas, ancestor of a large number of Acadians. Forthe ensus of 1686, he is mentioned immediately after Alexa ndre LeBourgne de Bellisle, Seigneur of Port Royal.

The name Boudrot is thought to refer to a descendant of Botthar, an army messenger
There story and those that are related to us. Michel Boudrot, was born in France around 160I and settled in Port Royal, Nova Scotia, then Acadia during the 1630s, is the ancestor of the Acadian familyof that name. He was probably recruited by Gov. Charles d'Aulnay since he was present at the baptism of the governor's daughter, Marie d'Aulnay, on Sept. 21, 1639, in his capacity as First Trustee ofPort-Royal. He was also one of the signatories of an attestation favorable to d'Aulnay's works in 1687. At the Port-Royal census of 1671, he was 71 years old and the father of a family of 11 children, three of whom were married. He had married Michelle Aucoin ABOUT 1641. In 1686, he was lieutenant general and judge of the Port-Royal tribunal. His son Charles settled at Pisiguit (Windsor, NS) and Claude at Grand-Pre, while Jean and Michel went to Beaubassin (Amherst, NS). His other sons stayed at Port-Royal, including Abraham my wife's direct descendant, who was a navigator and merchant. He traded with Boston on his shallop, the Marie. In January 1693, Commander de Villebon sent him on a mission to Boston where he was to make discreet inquiries about the state of affairs there and to report to him. He seems to have acquitted himself of his mission with success.

From Port Royal, these descendants had various residences. Before finally arriving on Isle Madame on Cape Breton Island they lived for periods of time on St. Pierre & Miquelon, French Islands south ofthe southeast coast of the Province of Newfoundland (still owned by France), Madeleine Island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and finally Isle Madame, one of the great seaport areas of the 19th and earlypart of the 20th century. Following in the footsteps of Abraham, several descendants of Michel Boudrot and Michelle Aucoin became navigators. In 1755, the Boudrot family was a large one and established in several communities in Acadia. This family was deported in several places in North America and in Europe. Several can be found in different New England colonies, including Massachusetts, Philadelphia, Connecticut and Louisiana. Many were thrown in prisons in southern England (Bristol and Southampton in particular), and were later transported to France after the Treaty of Paris, in 1763. These families were established at Belle-Isle-en-Mer, Cherbourg and Saint-Malo in Northern France. Several of those families found a way of returning to Acadia. Among them, the family of Germain Boudreau who was one of the pioneers of Cheticamp in Cape Breton. Several Boudreau families living at Beaubassin, Î le Saint-Jean and Cape Breton were able to escape the Deportation and found refuge in Quebec.They are to be found in different communities but notably in the Nicolet, Repentigny and Deschambault areas. Others made their way to the & Icirc; les-de-la-Madeleine at Petit de Grat on Isle Madame in Cape Breton. Several families settled in New Brunswick in the Memramcook Saint Anselme area, in Caraquet and in Petit-Rocher. The family of Pierre Boudreau and Madeleine Melanson from Port-Royal established itself at Memramcook. Their son, Isaac Boudreau, became the captain of a company of Acadians who supported the American War of Independence. Another of his sons settled at Inkerman in the northern part of the province. Joseph Boudreau, son of Anselme and Marguerite Gaudet of Beaubassin, found refuge at Restigouche on Chaleur Bay where he married Jeanne Hache in 1761. He later lived during a few years on Miscou before settling in Caraquet. He died at Nipisiguit in 1797 However, he is not the sole ancestor of that family in Petit-Rocher since another Boudreau, Joseph-Athanase, who had lived for several years at Deschambault, Quebec, also settled in Petit-Rocher at the close of the 18th century. The latter was a miller and is the ancestor of the Boudreau's of Beresford.

They are to be found in different communities but notably in the Nicolet, Repentigny and Deschambault areas. Others made their way to the Iles-de-la-Madeleine and at Petit-Degrat on Cape Breton. Several families settled in New Brunswick in the Memramcook - Saint Anselme area, in Caraquet and in Petit-Rocher. The family of Pierre Boudreau and Madeleine Melanson from Port Royal established itself at Memramcook. Their son, Isaac Boudreau, became the captain of a company of Acadians who retook Fort Beausejour from the British in support of the American War of Independence in what became known as the Eddy Rebellion. Another of his sons settled at Inkerman in the northern part of the province.

From article "Origins of the Pioneers of Acadia" according to the depositions of their descendants at Bell-Ile-en_Mer in 1767 by Stephen A. White.

excerpt...

BOUDROT, Michel, came from France with his wife Michelle Aucoin, according to four depositions, two made by his great-grandsons, Félix Boudrot (Doc. inéd., Vol. III, p. 39) and Pierre Boudrot (ibid., p. 120), one made by a great-great-grandson, also named Félix Boudrot (ibid., p. 36), and another made by Pierre LeBlanc, husband of his great-great-granddaughter Françoise Trahan (ibid., p. 41).

He was probably recruited by Gov. Charles d'Aulnay since he was presentat the baptism of the governor's daughter, Marie d'Aulnay, on 21 Sep1639, in his capacity as First Trustee of Port Royal. He was also one ofthe signatories of an attestation
favorable to d'Aulnay's works in 1687. At the Port royal census of 1671,he was 71 years old and the father of a family of 11 children, three ofwhom were married. In 1686, he was lieutenant general andjudge of thePort Royal tribunal. In Jan 16

From Acadia 1671 Census: Michel BOUDROT, 71, wife Michelle AUCOIN 53; Children (3 married): Francoise 29, Jeanne 25, Marguerite 20; (these not married): Charles 22, Marie 18, Jehan 16, Abraham 14, Michel 12, Olivier 10, Claude 8, Francois 5; cattle 5, sheep 12. There are a number of incertitudes on the origins of Michel Boudrot. Here are the known certainties. Michel was born in France at the beginning of the 17th century (1601). Michel was close friends with Charles de Menou d'Aulnay, for he was godfather to his daughter Marie de Menou who was baptized on September 22, 1639. He obviously arrived in Acadia before that date, probably with a group of colonists recruited by Charles de Menou and Martin Le Godelier in LaChaussee, France, in 1632, and who departed from Saint-Martin-de-Ré on July 23, 1632. In 1639 Michel was a managing agent in Port Royal, Acadia, and although the census of 1671 shows him to be a farmer, he assumed the duties of a magistrate and the census of 1686 shows him to be the lieutenant general of the colony. The following year, on October 5, 1687, he was given a testimonial for services rendered by Charles de Menou and the colonists who arrived in Acadia before 1641. About 1640, Michel married Michelle Aucoin. They had a family of eleven children. Who was Michelle Aucoin? Michelle was the daughter of Martin Aucoin and Barbe Minguette. She was from LaRochelle, France, according to the most current sources. There are certainties about Martin Aucoin. On November 26, 1630, Jeanne, daughter of Martin and Barbe, was baptized in Sainte-Marguerite's Chapel in LaRochelle. Arnaud Gyon was the godfather and Jeanne Riou was the godmother. On January 20, 1632, in Saint-Barthélemy-du-Grand Temple Church, Martin Aucoin married Marie Sallé. Arnaud Gyon, godfather ofJeanne Aucoin, was present at their marriage. Apparently Martin lost his wife Barbe Minguette after the birth of their daughter Jeanne. On November 10, 1632, Jean, son of Martin Aucoin and Marie Sallé, was baptized in the same church. Records show that Marie Sallé remarried with Jean-Claude Landry. A son, René dit LeJeune, was born to the couple about 1635. René dit LeJeune Landry married Marie Bernard in Acadia in 1659. To this day no other record of these families has been found in the LaRochelle registries. From these records, it is found that Michelle Aucoin was born about 1620 and that she was the daughter of Martin Aucoin and Barbe Minguette, and that in all likelihood, the family arrived in La Rochelle after the siege of 1627-1628 to repopulate the city which had been devastated by14 months of war between Catholics and Protestants. It was a war that had brought much suffering and deaths. Between 1630 and 1632 it is certain that Martin Aucoin, his first wife, Barbe Minguette, his second wife, Marie Sallé, and their children lived in La Rochelle. Martin was a carpenter. They lived in the parish of Saint-Barthélemy and they were Catholic. Marie Sallé was the daughter of DenisSalle and Françoise Arnaud of the parish of Notre-Dame of Cougnes, La Rochelle. These records were found in the church parish registries of La Rochelle, France. (source... Boudreaux web page compliments of Don Boudreaux) donboudreaux@eathlink.net

Arrived in Acadie before 1639. Judge and Lieutenant-General at Port-Royal. Replaced in this capacity by Mathieu Des GOUTINS, 30 Mar 1687, for reason of his old age. Ref: Inventaire des Insinuations duConseil Souverain de la Nouvelle-France./P.G. ROY, p.70. Originally Acadie was a French Colony and a part of New France. It was at Port-Royal, Acadie, that Michel BOUDROT and his wife, Michelle AUCOIN, came from France. Their children married and they lived in Acadie until around the ttime of the expulsion of the Acadiens by the English. When the English expelled the Acadiens, they also changed the names of their towns, evidently to further erase the origins of this French Colony. Examples of name changes: Beau-Bassin, Acadie became Amherst, Nova Scotia; Peticoudiac (Petcoudiac) became Hillsborough, New Brunswick, Province of Canada; Ile de St-Jean became Prince Edward Island; Pigiguit, Acadie became Windsor, Nova Scotia; Port-Royal, Acadie became Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia. As a matterof information, Nova Scotia translates to New Scotland. Interesting when you think of it in the context of, New England.....New France.....then, New Scotland. The English replaced the French people in this colony with their Scottish brethren.

The Boudreau Boudrot Family -------------------------- THE BOUDROT-BOUDREAU FAMILY Their story and those that are related to us. Michel Boudrot (Boudreau), who was born in France around 160I and settled in Acadia during the 1630s, is the ancestor of the Acadian family of that name. He was probably recruited by Gov. Charles d'Aulnay since he was present at the baptism of the governor's daughter, Marie d'Aulnay, on Sept. 21, 1639, in his capacity as First Trustee of Port-Royal. He was also one of the signatories of an attestation favourable to d'Aulnay's works in 1687. At the Port-Royal census of 1671, he was 71 years old and the father of a family of 11 children, three of whom were married. He had married Michelle Aucoin in France. In 1686, he was lieutenant general and judge of the Port-Royal tribunal. His son Charles settled at Pisiguit and Claude at Grand-Pre, while Jean and Michel went to Beaubassin. His other sons stayed at Port-Royal, including Abraham my wife's direct descendent,who was a navigator and merchant. He traded with Boston on his shallop, the Marie. In January 1693, Commander de Villebon sent him on a mission to Boston where he was to make discreet inquiries aboutthe state of affairs there and to report to him. He seems to have acquitted himself of his mission with success. My wives direct Boudrot-Boudreau descendants from Michel as follows: Direct Descendants of Michel Boudrot, Lt. Gen. 1.

Vivian "Viv" Marie (Langlois) Rose b: August 27, 1938in D'Escousse, NS, Canada From Port Royal, these descendants had a various residences. Before finally arriving on Isle Madame on Cape Breton Island they lived for periods of time on St. Piere & Miquelon, French Islands south of the southeast coast of the Province of Newfoundland (still owned by France), Magdalen Island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and finally Isle Madame one of the great seaport areas of the 19th and early part of the 20th century. Following in the footsteps of Abraham, several descendants of Michel Boudreau and Michelle Aucoin became navigators. In 1755, the Boudrot family was a large one and established in several communities in Acadia. This family was deported in several places in North America and in Europe. Several can be found in different New England colonies, including Massachusetts, Philadelphia, Connecticut and Louisiana. Many were thrown in prisons in southern England (Bristol and Southampton in particular), and were later transported to France after the Treaty of Paris, in 1763. These families were established at Belle-Isle-en-Mer, Cherbourg and Saint-Malo in Northern France. Several of those families found a way of returning to Acadia. Among them, the family of Germain Boudreau who was one of the pioneers of Cheticamp in Cape Breton. Several Boudreau families living at Beaubassin, le Saint-Jean and Cape Breton were able to escape the Deportation and found refuge in Quebec. They are to be found in different communities but notably in the Nicolet, Repentigny and Deschambault areas. Others made their way to the Î les-de-la-Madeleine and at Petit de Grat on Isle Madame in Cape Breton. Several families settled in New Brunswick in the Memramcook Saint Anselme area, in Caraquet and in Petit-Rocher. The family of Pierre Boudreau and Madeleine Melanson from Port-Royal established itself at Memramcook. Their son, Isaac Boudreau, became the captain of a company of Acadians who supported the American War of Independence. Another of his sons settledat Inkerman in the northern part of the province. Joseph Boudreau, son of Anselme and Marguerite Gaudet of Beaubassin, found refuge at Restigouche on Chaleur Bay where he married Jeanne Hache in 1761. He later lived during a few years on Miscou before settling in Caraquet. He died at Nipisiguit in 1797. However, he is not the sole ancestor of that family in Petit-Rocher since another Boudreau, Joseph-Athanase, who had lived for several years at Deschambault, Que., also settled in Petit-Rocher at the close of the 18th century. The latter was a miller and is the ancestor of the Boudreaus of Beresford.

:"During the years of British rule, most of the Port-Royal population moved upriver away from the town.

Through necessity, residents had reached an accommodation with New England traders who had become their sole source for the goods that they could not produce themselves...
