Arrived Acadia in 1636.
birth date of 1575, from _History of Annapolis_.

!ource: Historie ET Genealogie Des Acadiens, By Bona Arsenault Arrived Acadia 1636


Jehan Gaudet was registered at Port Royal in 1671; he was then 64 yearsold. In the early 1960's Genevive Massignon estimated that there were 576Acadian families with that name. The Gaudet, Hébert and LeBlanc families wereunited by matrimonial ties before leaving France.

In Martinique Elisabeth Gaudet was registered as a deportee from Acadia.She died there on January 10, 1766.


JEAN GAUDET is said to have arrived in Acadia with his son, Denis, and settled in Port Royal ca. 1640. The pair probably came from governor de Menou d'Aulnay's seigniory near Loudun, France. Other reports indicate he was in Acadia with his entire family much earlier (1610, 1614, 1632). However, it is more likely that Jean arrived with his family ca. 1640, as very few families were present in the early days of the young colony. According to the 1671 census for Port Royal, Jean is listed as 86 years old, which would place the date of his birth at 1585. Whether Jean arrived in 1610 or 1640, his wife Francoise-Marie Daussy appears to have died before 1640, for in 1641 Jean married Nicole Coleson. By the census of 1686, Nicole was listed as a widow.



Notes on this page, unless otherwise noted, are by Leonard William Gaudet A.K.A. Jean/Jehan Gaudet/Godet - Ronald Joseph Arthur Gaudet Jean (Jehan) Gaudet is considered to be the patriarch of the Gaudet family because he was the oldest & first Gaudet known to have come to Acadia. - Ronald Joseph Arthur Gaudet According to Massignon, in 1671 Jean Gaudet had 22 grand-children and 10 great-granchildren thus become the ancestor of one-tenth of the Acadian population. - Thom McCabe The Gaudet Family Coat of Arms In the 15th century, only royalty and some in the bourgeois class had coats of arms. None of the Acadian pioneers had coats of arms. Today, anyone can apply to the Canadian Heraldic Authority in Ottawa for a coat of arms. It was agreed upon at one of the 1993 general meetings of the Gaudet Association in New Brunswick, that Monsieur Robert Pichette, Fellow de la Société héraldique du Canada, be approached and asked if he would design a coat of arms that would represent the Acadian Jean Gaudet from Martaizé, France and all of his descendants. The coat of arms created for the 1994 reunion of the Gaudet families of Acadia at St-Joseph, New Brunswick, consists of the symbols which refer to the etymology of the name and the origins of our first ancestor Jean (Jehan) Gaudet, who settled in Acadia about 1636. According to Albert Dauzat from his Etymology Dictionary of Family names of France, Gaudet is known to derive from Gaudon, ancient German baptismal name of Waldo, from Waldon, governor. The spelling "Godet," means "a manufacturer of godets" (pots, bowls or glass). Two dictionaries describe the godet as a small drinking bowl with no stem or handle, of which the brim is lobed (rounded divisions). In botany, a godet refers to the shell or cap that holds the acorn from an oak tree. To show the etymology of the Gaudet name, a "godet" is surmounted under the acorn in the shield. The color green, called sinople in heraldic language, reminds us that Jean Gaudet and his son, Denis, originating from Martaizé, near Loudun, Department of Vienne, France, had first settled as farmers on the north bank of the Port Royal river, opposite Prée Ronde. The acorn is a symbol of strength and firmly rooted deep in the soil of Acadia. The acorn represents the Acadian roots of the Gaudet family and their loyalty to the land they had farmed. Acadia is symbolized by the star; this symbol was adopted at Miscouche, P.E.I. in 1884 with the French tri-color for the Acadian national flag. The Port Royal river is represented by the wavy bands, which is the method used in heraldry for water; and the division of the shield symbolizes a port. The fleur de lis is an ancient emblem of France. The motto "On parle de toi," translated into French from the Latin phrase "fabula narratur," expresses very well, the spirit and continuity of the Gaudet family in the history of Acadia. The blazonment of the Gaudet family coat of arms is as follows: Chapé-ployé au 1 fascé-ondé d'argent et d'azur au godet d'or en pointe surmont d'un gland de chêne aussi d'or, 2 de sinople à étoile à cinq rais d'or à dextre et à une fleur de lis du même à senestre. Sur un listel sous l'écu, la devise: "On parle de toi." Jean Gaudet (Godet) was listed as a censitaire on the fief at Martaizé in 1634. Martaizé was part of the seigneury of Aulnay, the property of Nicole de Jousserand, who was the mother of Charles d'Aulnay, governor of Acadia from 1636 to 1650. The village of Martaizé and it's environs was called the "fief de Beaulieu" or sometimes "Rallette." The church of Saint-Maurice de Martaizé still exists to this day. The inventory document of Nicole de Jousserand's fief de Beaulieu in the parish of Martaizé, (Archives Départementales de l'Indre et Loire, Série C, Liasse 601, signed before the notaries Messieurs Aubri and Pasquier, at Loudun on the 21st October 1634) states the following: "Je em en la fresche des Godets desclares douze boisseaus froment mesure de Loudun et trois derniers de cens a rente feodalle deue par Jean Gendre, Jean Godet, René Godet le jeune, Francois Godet, la veufve Vincent Besard, Pierre Giroire et Renée Besard sa femme Jean Besard, Simon Joubert les heritiers Pierre Bourg de sauseau et les heritiers Francois Godet par raison d'une piece du terre et signer estant en terre et signer estant en terre est du Rondonay le tout contenant ensemble et tenant deux septiers six boisseaus..." (A "fresche" is an old French word for rent due to the seigneur from his or her fief) Jean Gaudet and his son Denis, came together from France about the year 1636. They settled first on the north bank of the Port-Royal river, opposite la Prée Ronde (Round Hill), about ten miles upriver from the fort, on property that still belonged to the Gaudet family in 1710. Extract from the census of Port Royal, Acadia, dated November 1671: Laboureur- Jehan Gaudet aagé de quatre vingt et seize ans, sa femme Nicolle Colleson aagée de soixante et quatre ans. Leurs enfant Jehan Gaudet aagé de 28 ans, Leurs terre en Labour trois arpens en deux places, Leurs bestes a cornes six pièces, Leurs brebis trois pièces. Jean Gaudet had two brothers, Aubin and François. They were born between 1552 and 1596 and they died between 1566 and 1674; presumedly in France. - Ronald Joseph Arthur Gaudet Not sure if the rest of Jehan
s children came with him to Acadia when he came with his son, Dennis. - Ronald Joseph Arthur Gaudet On November 12, 1999, Susan (DuBois) Pacheco posted a message on the Gaudet Family Genealogy Forum that the first wife of Jean may have been a woman named Marguerite Martin.

"I have just checked Placide Gaudet's record of the Census of 1761 [sic, should be 1671], and see "Laboreur--JEHAN GAUDET...sa femme Nicolle Colleson..., leur enfans Jehan aagé 18 ans,..." It appeared your [Charles Leonard's] source was Bergeron. If so, Bergeron and Gaudet both read it the same."

8 Sep 1994 CompuServe message from Charles Leonard:

"Also according to this author [Bergeron], Jean Gaudet probably originates from the french seigneurie of the mother of Charles d'Aulnay, one of the founders of Acadia. Jehan was on a "liste des redevances" (rentors' list ?) in the parish of Martaizé in 1634. He probably came to Canada soon after. [See another reference to this below]

Father Laurent Molins made a census list in 1671: we see "laboureur" Jean Gaudet, aged 96 qith wife Nicole with son Jehan (18 years old). We also have Denis Gaudet (46) and wife Martine Gauthier (52). More: Marie Gaudet (38) widow of Estienne Hébert... Françoise Gaudet (48) married to Daniel Labland (!) (47)...

So after all, if Marie is issued from that first marriage, her birth year would make sense."

(A "fresche" is an old French word for rent due to the seigneur from his or her fief) Jean Gaudet and his son Denis, came together from France about the year 1636. They settled first on the north bank of the Port-Royal river, opposite la Prée Ronde (Round Hill), about ten miles upriver from the fort, on property that still belonged to the Gaudet family in 1710. Extract from the census of Port Royal, Acadia, dated November 1671: Laboureur- Jehan Gaudet aagé de quatre vingt et seize ans, sa femme Nicolle Colleson aagée de soixante et quatre ans. Leurs enfant Jehan Gaudet aagé de 28 ans, Leurs terre en Labour trois arpens en deux places, Leurs bestes a cornes six pièces, Leurs brebis trois pièces.

DC0119 Around the time of the treaty of Breda (1667), which officially restored Acadia to France, Denis Gaudet migrated towards the top of the Port Royal river. His now adolescent sons would be assured of their own possession of land to begin their own establishments. They were the first colonists in this locality situated about 20 kilometres upriver from the fort. They went on to create a large domain on both sides of the river in the region of present Bridgetown, Nova Scotia. Denis and his two sons both named Pierre (one surnamed l'Ainé, and the other le Jeune), constructed the new farm on the north bank. A map drawn by the surveyor George Mitchell in 1733 shows five habitations at one "Godet Village," at the north-east end of the valley, at a place where the river turns to the south and the space which separates the North and South Mountains gets wider. The author of the history of the town of Bridgetown, Elizabeth Coward, who knows the region thoroughly, places the location of Gaudet Village to the south-eastof the present Riverside Cemetery, at the inner limits of the town of Bridgetown, on land which later belonged to the Chipman family and who correspond to number 133 in the cadastral survey of Grandville Township. At the start of the 17th century, the lawyer-poet Marc Lescarbot described the surroundings at the top of the river (translated from French): "...we are full of desire in seeing the country upstream of the river where we find the prairies (marshes) virtually continuous for more than 12 leagues, among which flow numerous streams that come from the hills and mountains nearby; the forests are plentiful to the waters edge... and there are many bright clearings a long way from the shores..." In the census of the Port Royal river valley in 1671, Denis Gaudet gives his age as 46 years old, his wife Martine Gauthier was 52 years old. They had five children, two were married: Anne Gaudet was 25 years old (married to Pierre Vincent); Marie Gaudet was 21 years old (married to Olivier Daigre, who lived opposite Gaudet Village on the south bank); Pierre Gaudet l'Ainé, aged 20; Pierre Gaudet le Jeune, aged 17; Marie Gaudet, aged 14. All were farmers. Denis had six arpents of cultivated land (an arpent = roughly 5/6 of an acre), nine horned cattle and 13 sheep, some large, some small. In the census of Port Royal in 1693, Denis Gaudet was a widower aged 70 years. He was living with his son Pierre le Jeune who married Marie Blanchard. \DC0119

Steven White of the Centres d'Etudes Acadiennes has doubts about parent

It has been shown that Antoine and his brother, Etienne Hebert,the progenitors of the Acadian Heberts. Antoine worked as a copper (barrel maker). He (and many of the early Acadians) were thought to have been recruited by Charles D'MenouAulnay from the area of SE of Loudon (Martaize, La Chausse)


Arrived in New France in 1640,along with his brother Etienne. Whether they arrived together is not known for sure. It has been shown that Antoine and Etienne Hebert, the progenitors of Acadian Heberts, were brothers. For a long time, it was thought that they had a 3rd brother,Jacques, and were sons of Jacques Hebert and Marie Juneau of France. It has since been shown that Jacques (Jr. and Sr.) were actually Haberts,and not related to Antoine and Etienne. We still do not know the exact origin of these two brothers. It is commonly assumed that Antoine married Genevieve in France. DeSaulnier says Antoine had married earlier in France and had left behind 4 children in France. His birth year,according to census reports, ranges from 1614 to 1621. His arrival date in Acadian is unknown. Some say he came in 1640, while others put the date closer to 1648. Since neither he nor Etienne produced children before 1648, the latter date may be more accurate. Antoine worked as a cooper(barrel maker). He (and many of the early Acadians) were thought to have been recruited by Charles d'Menou Aulnay from the area SE of Loudon(Martaize, LaChaussee, etc.).


Possibly arrived in New France in 1648 on the ship La Verve with his wife and brother.


[hebert.ged] Brian Comeaux, "The Morning Advocate, May 7, 1998, Baton Rouge,La.,"Column by Damon Veach, entitled "Louisiana Ancestors". The first Acadian census in 1671 mentions two Hebert families. The first was that of Anthoine Hebert and his wife, Genevieve Lafrance, and the second was that of the widow of Estienne Hebert---Maire Gaudet. Due to the number of certificates of marriage dispensation that still exist, it has been possible to determine that Anthoine and Estienne Hebert were brothers.They were the sons of Jacques Hebert & Marie Juneau of Balesmes, in the present day French department of Indre-et-Loire, located near the city of Tours. They came to Port Royal around 1648 during the governorship of Charles de Menou d'Aulnay, whose French seigneurie was not far from Balesmes. Anthoine was apparently married before his departure and came to Port Royal with his wife. Estienne married within a year of his arrival to Marie Gaudet, the daughter of Jehan Gaudet and Francoise Marie Daussy. They were two of the earliest Acadian settlers. Today the Hebert family is one of the largest in Louisiana. There are concentrations of thefamilies throughtout Acadiana, but especially in Lafayette, Vermilion, Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes.




Ray Arcement@usa.net (unknown website) Antoine was a cooper and arrived in Acadia in July 1640 under a recruitment by Charles de Menoud'Aulnay. He and his brother were the progenitors of all of the Acadian Hebert's and their descendants. They were under the command of Germain Doucet, Seiur la Verdure, Captain of Arms of Pentagoet.

Antoine Hebert arrived in Acadia in 1640 with his brother. In 1645, he married Genevieve LeFranc at Port Royal (Acadia).. Newspaper articlestates that Antoine was born in Martiaize in theregion of Loudun, France.


[2051196-Allen-Burgess.ged.FTW] Antione Hebert was the son of Jacques Hebert and Marie Juneau,fromLa-Haya-Descartes, parich of Balesnes, in Touraine, France. GenevieveLe France was coming from France.


Two brothers traveled to and settled in Acadia some say in about 1640 still others say in 1648. The Heberts of Acadia have come from two sources. Antoine Hebert, born between 1614 and 1621, and married around 1648 to Genevieve Lefranc, probably a widow, who was born in 1613. Etienne Hebert, whose date of birth is unknown to us, died before the census of 1671, was married at Port Royal around 1650 to Marie Gaudet, daughter of Jean Gaudet and Nicole Colson. a chi Dispensations which were sought by their descendants, proves that Antoine and Etienne Hebert were brothers. They were the source of the greater number of Heberts in Canada an the United States.


[11221a.ged] Antoine Hebert was born 1621 in LaHaye-Descarte, Balesne,Touraine,France1. He married Genevieve LaFranc 1639 in Touraine,France2. Notes for Antoine Hebert: Antoine was a cooper and arrived in Acadia inJuly 1640 under arecruitment by Danrles De Menou D'Aulnay. He and his brother, Etienne,were the progenitors of all of the Acadian HEBERTs and their descendants. They were under the command of Germain DOUCET, Sieur LaVerdure, Captain of Arms of Pentagoet. Children of Antoine Hebert and Genevieve LaFranc are: Jean Hebert, born 1649 in Acadia. Jean Baptiste Hebert, born 1653 in Port Royal, Acadia; died November 03,1710 in GrandPre, Acadia. Catherine Hebert, born 1656 in Port Royal, Acadia. from "Someday" - Homepage of Steve and Natalie Flemming and translated from the internet site List of Patronymes: Two Hbert brothers arrive at Port-Royal, in Acadie, between years 1645 and 1650. The elder one, Antoine Hbert was born between 1614 and 1621. It arrives with his wife Genevieve LeFrance. The junior, Estienne Hbert was born towards 1630. We are unaware of the name of their parents, nor the place of their exact origin. Perhaps originating in Tourraine or Loudunois, the Roadway, in Mortaiz. There is not any link with the pioneer of the pioneers, Louis Hbert. Present description, relates mainly to the ancestor Estienne Hbert, who creates us links of descent,in this genealogy. Estienne Hbert, ploughman and farmer,wife withPort-Royal, in 1650, Marie Gaudet, born between 1626 and 1633,girl of the ancestor Jehan Gaudet and Marie Daussay. tienne Hbert and Marie Gaudet have ten children, five wire and five girls, between 1651 and 1669, with Port-Royal, in Acadie. A girl and a son have descent which concerns us, in this genealogy. Marguerite Hbert was born into 1652, with Port-Royal and becomes the wife into 1678, of the ancestor Jacques-Nicolas LePrince, born into 1646, originating in St-Malo of Brittany. The son, tienne Hbert, born twin with Emmanuel, in 1654, wife in 1678, with Port-Royal,Jeanne Comeau, born in 1662, sister ofPierreComeau, known as Esturgeon and girl of the ancestorsPierre-Estienne Comeau and Rose Bayol. tienne Hbert and Jeanne Comeau have eight children, six girls and two boys, of which Jean-baptiste Hbert, born in 1692. Jean-baptiste marries with Large-Pre, about 1711, Jeanne-AnneBoudrot, then, after the death of this one, it marries on January 9,1719, lisabeth Granger, girl of Pierre Granger and lisabeth Guillebourg. With the fourth generation, Honore Hbert, born in 1738, in Pisiguit, marries on November 4, 1771, Madeleine Prince. In the fifth generation, Jean-Chrysostome Hbert, born in 1779, wife on April 20,1807, with Nicolet, Marie-Anne Hon, born in 1787, in Bcancour. Their daughter, Marie-Zoe Hbert, marry on January 11, 1836, Mose Boisvert, link which continues to my mother, Pierrette Boisvert. The ancestor Estienne Hbert dies into 1670. The grandmother, Marie Gaudet marries insecond weddings Domenica Garaut. The significance of the name Hbert, derived in Normandy from Herbert, itself resulting from the Germanic name Hari-Berht, is of Hari = armed, people and of Berht =shining, famous.

and from Tim Hebert's website The Hebert Genealogy:

1. Antoine2 HEBERT (1) was born 1614-1621 in France, and died in Port Royal, Acadia. He married Genevieve LEFRANCE.

Prrine Bourg was married twice. She married Simon Pelletret inabout1639-40 and Ren Landry in about 1645. Perrine Bourg was the sisterofAntoine Bourg who was married to Antoinette Landry, sister ofPerrine'ssecond husband, René Landry.

Census records are about the only source of Perrine's age. If agesarederived from the census, Perrine was born between 1612 (1686census)and 1626 (1693 census), with the only other age mentioned in the1671census which puts her birth at about 1619. The only safeassumption(barring any hard evidence) is that Perrine was born between1612 and1626. [RLL 29 Jan 2002]

Bourg/Bourque
Some say that the Acadian Bourg/Bourque family is originally from Normandy and decended from William the Conqueror who invaded England in 1066 and became the English king. According to this theory, the Bourgs and Bourques of Acadia were thus related to the English royal family that had them deported from Acadia and are also related to the present royal family of England.
Royalty or not, the most likely arrival date of the first Bourgs in Acadia was 1632, when Antoine Bourg probably arrived with Commander Isaac de Razilly who brought 300 "elite" men to the colony, including a dozen or so families. Antoine was the son of Simon Bourg, and he was born in 1609 in Martaize, France, in the region of Loudon, Department de la Vienne. Antoine was accompained by his parents, and at least one sister, Perrine.
In 1636, the Bourg family moved to Port Royal, which had once again come under French rule.
Antoine married Antoinette Landry in Acadia some time around 1641-43. Antoinette was born in France in 1618 and came to Acadia with her sister, Perrine Landry, and two of her brothers, Rene, her twin, and Jean Claude. Jean Claude brought his wife, Marie Salle and their child, Rene, as well as the three children from Marie Salle's first marriage, Martin, Jeanne and Michelle Aucoin.
Antoine and Antoinette Bourg established themselves on the west bank of the R Riviere des Dauphins (Annapolis River today), and their settlement eventually became known as the "hameau des Bourg" or "Bourg Village" They had 12 children.
By the census of 1671, Antoine had given most of his land to a son, Jehan, who was married to Marguerite Martin and who already had two children of his own. Jehan later added six more girls and one son to his family.
Antoine's oldest son, Francois, was also married by 1671 and lived two farms down from his parents. Antoine's son, Bernard, had become fairly rich by the standards to the time, with 35 aprents in cultivation, two muskets, 10 cows, 40 sheep, 12 pigs and 45 fruit trees.
An interesting item concerning the Bernard Bourg family is that their oldest daughter married Claude Dugas, while three sons and one daughter from Claude Dugas' first marriage to Francoise Bourgeois married three of the other children of Bernard Bourg. Thus Claude and three of his sons and one of his daughters had not only a parent child relationship, but they were also inlaws.
Martin Bourg, Antoine's fourth son, married Marie Potet and had nine children, at least one of whom left decendants who eventually came to Louisiana.
At some point in the early 1700's, a number of Bourg descendants moved to the Ile St. Jean (Prince Edward Island) to escape English rule. Two of these, who figure in the history of Bourg/Bourque families of Louisiana were Francois Louis, the son of Martin Bourg and Marie Potet, and the grandson of Antoine's first son Francois. This grandson was Jean Baptiste, the oldest son of Francois Bourg and Marguerite Boudrot.
Francois Louis was married to Cecile Michel. They lived at Riviere des Blonds on the Ile St. Jean, where they had eight children. Francois Louis and his family were deported by the English from the island in 1758. Francois Louis died at sea at the age of 80.
Jean Baptiste Bourg married Marie Pitre, who also lived at riviere des Blonds until deported with their family to St. Malo. Marie Pitre Bourg died at sea, and Jean Baptiste and the oldest daughter, Marguerite, died within a month of arriving in France.
One of the sons of Francois Louis, Jean Charles, died in France some time between 1777 and 1785. His widow, Madeleine Blanchard, and their family came to Louisiana from France aboard the ship "L'Amitie" in 1785. The family established itself in the vicinity of St. Martinville (Louisiana) and was the source of many of the Bourques in south central Louisiana.
Charles, the youngest son of Jean Baptiste Bourg, was deported to France with his family and later married Anne Thibodaux. Charles died in France, but his widow came to Louisiana in 1785 with the surviving members of the family. They settled first in present day Assumption Parish, near Plattenville. Some of these decendants made theri way into Lafourche and Terrebonne Parishes and make up a portion of the Bourg family in southeast Louisiana.
Arrived in Port Royal (Annapolis Royal), Richmond County, Annapolis, Nova
Scotia, Canadain 1636. Marriage also listed as 1643.

Acadian Descendants, Vol I, by Janet Jehn - immigrated about 1639 Adjutant of Governor D'Aulnay. Was Port Royal Commandant at time of surrender to Robert Sedgwick on 16 Aug 1654. Following the terms of the act of capitulation, he returned to France where he died.

beau-frere of Jacques Bourgeois. (brother-in-law or step-brother)

The birthplace of Germain Doucet (Sieur de La Verdure) has not yet been established. According to researcher/genealogist F. René Perron of Sèvres, FRANCE, La Verdure lies 10 kilometers north of Coutran in the Bassevelle Parish. La Verdure was the fiefdom of Germain Doucet, Commander of Port Roya l. It is located in Champagne Brie, 10 kilometers north of La Ferté-Gauche r. Germain Doucet came to Acadia in 1632 with Commander Isaac de Razilly by order of Cardinal Richelieu (Minister of State to King Louis XIII). They came to re-occupy the colony after the St. Germain-en-Laye Treaty of March 29, 1632.

According to author Andrew Hill Clark re ACADIA: THE GEOGRAPHY OF EARLY NO VA SCOTIA TO 1760 (page 91): "Razilly ... sailed from France on July 4, 1632 in L'Espérance à Dieu, shepherding two transports, and disembarked so me three hundred people (mostly men) and a variety of livestock, seeds, to ols, implements, arms, munitions, and other supplies at La Have (LaHèv e, at the mouth of La Have River in present Lunenburg County) on Septemb er 8." Razilly was a cousin of Richelieu and a royal councillor. One of the leaders of The Company of New France, he was designated Lieutenant-General of a ll the parts of New France called "Canada" and the Governor of "Acadia."

According to authors Sally Ross and Alphonse Deveaure THE ACADIANS OF NO VA SCOTIA ~ PAST AND PRESENT (page 16): "In September Isaac de Razilly arrived in Acadia with three sailing vessels, 300 hand-picked men, three Capuchin Fathers and a few women and children." On a document signed July 14, 1640, Germain Doucet was at Port Royal and Captain of the Army of Pentagoët as well as the right-hand man of the Governor of Acadia (Charles de menou d'Aulnay de Charnizay). After the death of the Governor in 1650, Germain was the Commander at the fort of Port Royal and Deputy Guardian of the Governor's children. On August 16, 1654, when 500 Bostonian soldiers under the command of Robert Sedgewick attacked the fort of Port Royal, Germain found it wise to give up without a struggle as he had only 100 men to oppose them. All military personnel were repatriated back to FRANCE. Germain left his brother-in-law, Jacques Bourgeois, surgeon, as Lieutenant of Port Royal and as a witness to see that the conditions of the trea ty were carried out. Germain and his wife returned to FRANCE in 1654.
