Exploring the Ancestry of Laurent DOUCET: Events, Pictures, and Documents

Biography
Laurent, born in c1669, married Jeanne, daughter of Antoine Babin, at Port-Royal in c1689. They had 12 children, including six sons who married into the Sylvestre dit Champagne, Pellerin, Doiron, Brun, Babineaux, and Martin families. Three of their daughters married into the Lord, Levron, and Garceau dit Boutin families. In 1714, soon after Britain gained control of Acadia, Laurent took the ship La Marie Joseph to Île Royale with other Port-Royal Acadians to look at land there. Evidently he did not like what he saw; he returned to Port-Royal, probably where he died by January 1728. His oldest son Pierre, meanwhile, left Nova Scotia, married at Pointe-aux-Trembles, near Montréal, in February 1716, and settled a 'fief' at Chicot, Berthier Parish, in the 1720s; in other words, he and his family became Canadiennes.
