Notes:

He is the son of Pierre Laverdure dit Melanson and Priscilla Melanson. Pierre was a tailor by trade and a captain in the militia at Mines, Acadie.

He was supposedly a Huguenot, and a Calviniste (although that isn't confirmed). Pierre was of French and English descent as explained below:

His father, Pierre Laverdure dit Melanson, left France because of persecution of his Protestant faith, finding refuge in England. It was there that he met his wife Priscilla Melanson or Malleson.

Pierre senior moved to Boston with his wife Priscilla and youngest son in 1667 (after the French retook Acadia), where he probably died. After his father died, his mother was remarried to William Wright, on 18 April 1680.


After initially settling at Port Royal, Pierre Melanson was later one of the founders of Grand Pre with Pierre Theriot. He was a stonemason.

"In the spring of 1657, the family embarked in England aboard the vessel Satisfaction under the command of Captain Peter Butler, forming part of the company which Thomas Temple was transporting to Acadia, over which he had been named Governor after its capture by the English. Having first stopped at Boston, Captain Butler next went to the fort on the St. John River, where a group of his passengers disembarked, and finally to Port-Royal. It appears the La Verdure (or Melanson, as they were known) family stopped at Fort St. John. After the Treaty of Breda, under which in 1667 England ceded Acadia to France, he and his parents went to seek refuge under the Protestant government at Boston.
