"ACADIA

Michel Boudrot, born probably at Cougnes, near La Rochelle, France, in c1600, came to Port-Royal in the early 1640s with his young wife Michelle Aucoin, whom he had married in c1641. Michelle was sister of Jeanne Aucoin, wife of fellow colonist Francois Girouard. Michel Boudrot served as one of the first syndics (similar to a present-day mayor) of Port-Royal. In 1684, he was serving as lieutenant général civil et criminel du Port-Royal, or general representative of the King in civil and criminal matters at the colony's capital. In August 1688, he gave up his post as lieutenant général because of his "great age"; he was 88. He died not long afterwards. His wife Michelle, two decades his junior, lived until December 1706, when she died at Port-Royal, age 85. Michel and Michelle raised 11 children. Their four daughters married into the Robichaud, Thériot, Bourg, Babineau, and Poirier families. Their seven sons, all born at Port-Royal, created families of their own, but not all of their sons had sons of their own."

Was excited to learn that my grandmother Eva Boudreau was the gr gr gr gr gr gr granddaughter of Michel Bodrot/Boudreau who arrived in Acaidia in the 1600's. Did not know that the family on my maternal side were Acaidians. Have a lot more research to do. YeOco@aol.com 12/15/2010 8:11:32 PM

This is the same information I have as to the first generation to come to the new world. My name is David Boudreau, and I am only the 4th generation in the US, arriving in 1860, and settling outside Chicago in Aurora, Il. Interesting to find out that some of the family moved to Louisiana so early. Thanx for your hard work. David George Boudreau paymedaddy2@yahoo.com 2/2/2012 11:31:28 PM
