Germain was not the son of Germain Doucet (born 1595), but was either a Mi'kmaq or Abenaki whom the Captain at Arms adopted, perhaps when he started living with the boy's mother around 1635-40.
In 1650, when the Sieur d'Aulnay died, Germain was remembered in his will. In recognition for his many years of "loyalty and affection", Doucet received 200 livres and with his wife, a promise of free food and 50 écus of rent per year for the rest of their lives.[2]

In a letter from Stephen White, dated May 8, 1992, is where the evidence first comes to light that Germain Doucet (born about 1641 in Port Royal) is not the son of Pierre Doucet, (born about 1621 in France), as previously thought by many, including Adrien Bergeron and Bona Arsenault. Germain Doucet, (born about 1641), is the son of Major Germain dit Sieur LaVerdure Doucet, birth about 1595. A dispensation in the 3rd degree was granted Nov 26, 1726, at Port-Royal to Germain Doucet (grandson of Germain (1641)) to marry Françoise Comeau (granddaughter of Pierre). In reviewing Le Grand Arrangement Des Acadiens au Québec and Histoire et Généalogie des Acadiens, there are the following individuals named Germain Doucet:
* Germain DOUCET dit LaVerdure (born about 1595 in France).
* Germain DOUCET (born about 1641 in Port Royal) married 1664 Marie Marguerite LANDRY (René LANDRY and Pérrine BOURG).
* Germain DOUCET (born 1698) married 26 November 1726 Françoise COMEAU (Alexandre COMEAU and Marguerite DOUCET).
* Germain DOUCET (born 1721) married Françoise LaPIERRE in Québec.
Germain DOUCET (1641) and Marie Marguerite Landry had a son Charles (born 1665), who married Huguette-Radegonde Guerin (François Guerin and Anne Blanchard). Charles and Huguette had a son Germain (1698), who married Françoise Comeau. Pierre Doucet (1621) and Henriette Pelletret had a daughter Marguerite (born about 1680), who married Alexandre Comeau (Étienne Comeau and Marie Lefebvre). Marguerite and Alexandre had a daughter Françoise (born about 1704), who married Germain Doucet (1698).
A Dispensation in the 3rd degree means that the parties involved were second cousins, both parties being of equal descent from a common great-grandparent. The Dispensation granted Nov 26, 1726, at Port-Royal to Germain Doucet (grandson of Germain) to marry Françoise Comeau (granddaughter of Pierre) means that Germain and Françoise were second cousins, having the same common great-grandparent. The common great-grandparent would be Germain Doucet, Sieur de LaVerdure. This granted Dispensation clearly shows, therefore, that Pierre Doucet (1621) was the brother or half brother of Germain DOUCET (1641), as opposed to what most historians have speculated.

Germain Doucet and Haplogroup C3b

Marie Rundquist, the founder and administrator of the Amerindian Ancestry Out of Acadia project at Family Tree DNA has recently written a new paper about the C3b results within the project. Marie?s paper, titled ?C3b Y Chromosome DNA Test Results Point to Native American Deep Ancestry, Relatedness, Among United States and Canadian Study Participants,? tells about the project and the findings relative to haplogroup C3b. Her raw data is available within the project. The Native American people involved are the Mi?kmaq and ironically, while we have found several Mi?kmaq men who carry haplogroup C3b, we haven?t found any carrying the much more common Q1a3a.
The Doucet family is represented by 8 different males who all tested as haplogroup C3b. They descend from various sons of Germain Doucet, born in 1641. Germain was always presumed to be the son of the French founder, Germain Doucet, born in 1595 in France, the commander of Fort Royal. Indeed, the original descendants of Germain Doucet (1595) who had tested carried haplogroups of R1b1a2, clearly European, just as we would expect. But then, there was another Doucet test and he was discovered to be haplogroup C3b.
Keith Doucet, the man who tested to be C3b, and Marie subsequently wrote about their discovery and the process they went through to find other men to confirm that DNA result in a story titled ?Confirmed C3b Y DNA Results Test the Heritage of Cajun Cousin Keith Doucet.? Pierre, the other son of Germain Doucet dit Sieur Laverdure Doucet (1595), tests to be R1b1a2, while ?son? Germain Doucet (1641) tested to be C3b. One may assume Germain Doucetdit Sieur Laverdure Doucet (1595) and his wife adopted an Indian child and named him Germain Doucet. There are other possibilities.
