Biography
Older son Bernard, born in c1670, married Marie-Claire, daughter of Bernard Bourg, probably at Port-Royal in c1691. They moved to the Minas Basin, where they lived for a time on Rivière-Kenescout and at Grand-Pré before moving to L'Assomption, Pigiguit. They had 13 children, including nine sons who married into the Richard, Gautrot, Testard dit Paris, Landry, Breau, Doucet, Boudrot, Hébert dit Manuel, and Vincent families. One of their daughters married into the Hébert dit Manuel family. Bernard and many of his children moved from Minas to Île St.-Jean, today's Prince Edward Island, by the early 1750s probably to escape British authority in Nova Scotia. A granddaughter settled at La Baleine and Lorembec on Île Royale, today's Cape Breton Island. Bernard died at Port-Lajoie, Île St.-Jean, in January 1751, age 80.
