    Notes:

    Ancestor Joseph Trahan was an Acadian born in the village of Grand Pre where he married in 1725 and where all of his children were born. He was about 50 years of age when Grand Pre was captured. The Trahan family was deported to Virginia where his wife (Elizabeth Theriot) died. Virginia rejected the Acadians so they were sent to England. Trahan died in the following year while in detention at Liverpool. I descend from two of his daughters, Francoise (1737) and Madeleine (1741). Both married while in England but migrated to France in 1763. These two daughters immigrated to Louisiana in 1785.

    Jean married Jeanne Landry in 1691, in Acadie. They are the parents of the following:
    1) Jeanne (1692-) md Pierre Leblanc (and grandparents to their daughter Marie-Josephe Leblanc)
    2) Marie (1693-) md Abraham Bourg
    3) Francois (1694-1710)

    9) Germain (1707-) md Marie-Josephte Hebert
    10) Francoise (1710-) md Pierre Leblanc

    He is listed on the 1714 census, but not on the 1751 census. There are no census records between those dates and the books for the Grand Pre area stop in 1748. He may have been left off of a book copy or most likely he died between 1749 and 1751 (but could be anytime after 1714). All that Stephen A. White says about his death is that it was in Grand Pre.

    Marie is the daughter of Rene Bernard and Andree Guyon (1620-). She married Rene Landry in 1659, in Port-Royal, Acadie. They are the parents of the following:
    1) Antoine (1660-) md Marie Thibodeau
    2) Claude (1663-1747) md (a) Marie Babin and (b) Anne-Catherine Thibodeau

    13) Anne (1684-) md Rene Blanchard
    14) Charles (1688-1722) md Catherine Brossard
    15) Isabelle (1690-)

    The exact name of Marie and Jeanne Bernard's father is heavily debated. All evidence says it is not Rene or Andre so do not change the name unless you have discovered some new evidence that dozens of scholars have not found in decades of searching. The strongest evidence suggests his name was Charles. There is a marriage record in France for Charles Bernard and Andree Guyon, but it is still unclear if this was the same Andree Guyon. A profile for Charles Bernard as the spouse of Andree Guyon is linked to her profile so his information can be documented. Perhaps mtDNA evidence will someday allow us to link our Andree Guyon to the Thyphaine Pannier maternal line in France. Until then it is best to leave the given name blank.
