!IMMIGRATION-MARRIAGE-CHILDREN: E-mail posting on [email protected]> on 14 Aug 1998 by Bud DORR ([email protected]), quoting from Stephen WHITE. Jean POIRIER, a sailor ("matelot"), arrived in Acadia in 1641 on the ship "Saint Francois." He probably married Jeanne CHEBRAT around 1647; son Michel born at Port Royal around 1650. Michel married around 1673 to Marie BOUDROT.

Without doubt he made part of a group come from France hired to work for the fishing business of Nicolas DENYS at Cap-Breton. His widow married Antoine GOUGEON in 1656.

!IMMIGRATION: Came to Acadia about 1636 with his brother-in-law Guillaume BLANCHARD & wife Huguette POIRIER. Where found this?
