Misc. Notes
From Steve Pineau on FB https://www.facebook.com/steve.pineau.16
As an Acadian I was surprised when I did my family tree that I was also related to some of the first Quebec settlers as well. Joseph Guyon, the grandson of Jean Guyon and great grandson of Marin Boucher and Pierre Gareman was a privateer who frequented Acadia and there married Marguerite Dugas. Unfortunately, during the deportation of the Acadians, Joseph's Granddaughter Angelique Bonin and her husband Mathurin Picard both vanished, presumably dead of disease or starvation at sea, as did thousands more. Their daughter Catherine Picard was only four years old and was presumably separated and deported to the hellhole of French Guyana. She died there at age 12, probably of disease, as did 75% of the French Guyana Acadians. Their other child/daughter Marguerite who was around 5 was somehow spirited away, ending up on Isle St Jean (PEI) and married into the Gallant family, through whom I'm descended. [the French Guyana deportation is disputed]
I also found I'm related to Pierre Godin dit Chantilllon who was part of the Montreal grande recrue of 1653 and his wife Jeanne Rousseliere. She was a considered a "filles a marier". They later moved to Acadia where their daughter Anne married Pierre Martin who was 1/2 first nations and my ancestors.
