Discovering the Ancestry of François GAUTROT (GAUTREAU): Events, Photos & Historical Records
Biography
GAUDRAULT/ GAUDREAU/ GAUDREAULT - softened contraction of GAUTREAU, itself, derived from GAUDIER, which comes from the Germanic name WALDHARI, composed of 'wald' which means 'to govern', and 'hari' which means 'army'.
François Gautreau would have landed at La Hève (Nova Scotia) on September 8, 1632 with Isaac de Razilly and three hundred elite men. In 1634, he would have taken for wife a Native American named Marie, by whom he had two children, Marie and Charles. He married in second marriage with Edmée Lejeune around 1645. She will give him nine children, four daughters and five sons: Marie, Jean, François, Renée, Marguerite, Claude, Charles, Jeanne and Germain. The family then settled in Port-Royal where we find it during the first Acadian census of 1671. In the 1686 census, François and his wife lived with their son Claude. The ancestor François died in Port-Royal before the 1693 census.
