Claude Guédry dit Gravois dit La Verdure married first to Kesk8a, a Mi'kmaq, in c1680, and then to Marguerite, daughter of Claude Petitpas and Catherine Buguret and widow of Martin Dugas, in c1681. They lived at Mirliguèche, on the Atlantic side of the peninsula, as well as at Port-Royal and Chignecto. De Meulles found them at Mirliguèche in 1686. Claude, called La Verdure, was age 35, and Marguerite, whose given name was not recorded, was 25. They were living with one child, whose gender and age the intendant did not record. Claude's daughter Jeanne by his first wife (their only child) had been born at Beaubassin in June 1681, so she would have been age 5 at the time of the census. Only three of Claude's children by Marguerite--sons Claude, fils, Jean-Baptiste, and Charles--would have been born by the time of the census. Of these four children, only the second son, Jean-Baptiste, seems to have survived childhood, so the child de Meulles counted at Mirliguèche may have been Jean-Baptiste. Marguerite gave Claude 11 children, including four sons who created families of their own.
