    He arrived in Acadia about 1640, probably from Chausse, Loudun region, Dept. of Vienne, France, and there around 1645, married Perrine Bourg, widow of PELLETRET, sister of Antoine BOURG.

    Stephen White disputes that wife Perrine BOURG was sister of Antoine BOURG, using a study of the descendants' marriage dispensations. However, he also argues "the conclusion that we can accept as being sufficient proof that Antoinette LANDRY was the sister of Rene the elder."

    these facts have been verified by the Centre d'Etudes acadiennes as accurate: "LANDRY--The two Rene's are not related. Antoinette LANDRY, wife of Antoine BOURG, was the sister of Rene' the Elder, married to Perrine BOURG."
