And that is where the problem starts. Most of the records of the German Coast were lost when the pastor's residence for the Little Red Church burned down in 1788.

I would love to get others' input =========================== http://worldconnect.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=wesleyhclark&id=I2030 Genealogy of Wesley Harry Clark Entries: 4601 Updated: 2015-06-09 18:49:02 UTC (Tue) Contact: Wesley H. Clark Index | Descendancy | Register | Pedigree | Ahnentafel | Download GEDCOM | Add Post-em ID: I2030 Name: Nicholas Lavigne Surname: Lavigne Given Name: Nicholas Sex: M Birth: ABT 1684 in St. Denis, Paris, France Death: 1750 in Port Toulouse, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada _UID: 02D08687FE8AF242B4B6CBEDB9C4166FBFE3 Note: The Early Lavignes From Bob Aubie (baubie@cogeco.ca) The Aubie history begins with the name La Vigne in the country of France sometime in the early 1600's. The La Vigne family were adventurous in nature and Claude La Vigne was about to help give rise to a new nation far across the ocean in the newly discovered French territories. Claude was born in St. Denis, Seine, France just north of Paris about 1660. He married Franciose Le Dour- Ledorez. The couple had a son, Nicholas born about 1684 (See Port Toulouse Census 1752... Nicholas is listed at age 68) in St. Denis. Nicholas decided to cross the Atlantic and settle in France's newest outpost in Louisberg. He eventually moved to Port Royal about 1710.and took up farming in the nearby countryside. He met and married one Marie Doucet on March 4, 1714 and eventually took his new bride to settle in Port Toulouse on Isle Royal (Cape Breton Island) (Port Royal Census 1714-15) The 1724 Census of Port Toulouse (Port Toulouse.com) lists a Nicholas and his wife, Madeline Doucet with one child. If that is the case, Nicholas and Madeline must have come to the colony in 1716 or so. The La Vignes are listed among the early settlers of Port Toulouse. The census of 1724 shows a Nicholas La Vigne from St. Denis who was married to a Marie Doucet on March 4, 1715 in Port Royal. Birth certificates from 1715 show the birth of a Joseph La Vigne in Port Royal. He died young and Nicholas and Madeline had two or three other children. This must be the correct Nicholas because marriage records from Port Royal list Claude La Vigne and Francoise Le Dour-Ledorez as his parents. Unnoffical records show the Madeline and Nicholas had four children, Joseph, Charles, Jean and Michel. If we move to the 1752 census of Port Toulouse on Cape Breton Island we see Nicholas, aged 68 and his second wife, Anne Clemenceau, along with their six children. He was married to Anne in 1732 if records are correct. Their eldest child. Anne born in 1733 would seem to support this. The other children listed are: Marguerite 1737, Nicholas 1738, Madeline 1741, Barbe 1745 and Genevive 1750. No mention is made of the Names of Madeline and Nicholas' children whom I believe to be Charles (1717), Joseph who died young, Michel and Jean who was born in 1722 or so. There is indeed a Charles La Vigne living in Port Toulouse in 1752. He is listed as aged 34 making his birth year 1717. This would coincide with the age of Nicholas' eldest child He is a native of Port Royal and his wife is Madeline Petitpas. She too is 34. The children are Anne, aged 9 years, Charles, Cecile, Benoist and Joseph aged 9 months. The La Vignes were forced or probably driven out of Port Toulouse to the north when the British regained power over Acadia. The French and Indian War (England and the North American Colonies vs France) began in 1754 and the British Government insisted that the Acadians swear an oath of Allegiance to the British Monarch. Many refused to do so with the result that over 10,000 Acadians were imprisoned or sent to France. When the war was over in 1764 many returned to Acadia but were not allowed to settle in great numbers. Main settlement areas were along the Bay of Chaleur in Northern New Brunswick but many spread throughout North America from Louisana to Quebec where their descendants remain to this day. During one of the many expulsions of Acadians, Nicholas' second wife Marie Clemenceau, was drowned while returning to France. This was about 1755 and I presume Nicholas should have gone with his wife or taken her with him wherever he went. Perhaps we can assume Nicholas may have died or was killed or expelled by the English. He would have been 70 at that time. So we are left with the whereabouts of Charles (1717) and Jean (1722). With the expulsions of the Acadians in 1755 they must have moved somewhere. I found a record of our Charles Lavigne's second marriage to Anne Lafarge on February 12, 1760 in St-Louis, Aunis, France so I know he moved there after the expulsion of the Acadians around 1758 or so and died there. His second wife, Anne, died in France in 1823. The Acadians from Port Royal and Port Toulouse were expelled to France aboard many ships but a great number fled up the Saint John River in New Brunswick or around the coast into the Bay of Chaleur in the Bathurst area. I believe Jean may have been one of these refugees. Church records from 1831 in the Bathurst area do show a Jean Batiste Lavigne living there. Jean Baptiste is undoubtedly the son of Nicholas and Madeline Doucet and unofficial records show that he married Isabelle Beaudry about 1769 in Bathurst. Records also indicate this same Jean Baptiste was a farmer in the Bathurst area and lived until the ripe old age of 100 and died in 1822. This death is indicated in official church records. There is a time gap between the birth of Jean and Jean Baptiste of some 56 years and although great this is not totally unusual. Over 40 unofficial Roots Web and Family Search entries state that Nicholas and Madeline Doucet were the parents of Jean who married Elizabeth Beaudry! and until I find otherwise that's my story and I'm sticking to it. From this point on we have definite records to show that Jean Baptiste and Isabelle's son, Jean Baptiste, (born 1778) married Modeste Hache-Gallant (born 1778) sometime about 1798 in Bathurst. It seems that twelve children were born to the couple between 1800 and 1822. Church and government records from 1831 show that Jean Baptiste was a farmer and listed his six eldest children as wage earners but no occupations appear for them. The sixth born child of Jean Baptiste and Modeste was named Jean Baptiste after his father and he married Lucie Bertin in Bathurst about 1829. He too is listed as a farmer but only has five children according to the Church records of 1838; Marie, Joseph, John, Edward and Valens. In the archival records of 1841 we do not see the eldest child, Marie, so it can be presumed that she may have died. What we do see, however, is that Jean Baptiste is recorded as deceased and that Pierre Aubut from Quebec is listed as the new husband of the 30 year old Lucie Bertin. It is evident than that the children may have been referred to as the children of Lucie Bertin and Pierre Aubut. People in the Bathurst area quickly referred to Pierre Aubut as Pierre Aubie This situation brought about a change in the names of the Lavigne children and they probably were referred to as Aubie-Lavignes. When the exact date of the change to Aubie for this line of the family took place is not clear and indeed until the 1900's both Lavigne and Aube-Lavigne was still commonplace. Joseph, John, Edward and Valens, Lucie's four sons, gave rise to four traceable lines of the Aubie family but, indeed, some may even be Lavignes to this day. We are able to find Aubies, Aubes, and perhaps even Lavignes from the four Lavigne children. The North Bay line descends from John-Aubie Lavigne who was born in 1836 and married Marie Melanson (1841) in the year 1861 in Bathurst. The census of 1881 lists John and Mary and their children, Agnes 1866, Mary Ann 1868, Elizabeth 1869, Annie 1871, Jerome 1875, Alphonse 1877 and Thomas 1880. This Thomas is our ancestor. The census records of 1891 do not show John's wife Mary Melanson so we can presume she passed away . Census records from 1891 show the name seems to be Aubie-Lavigne for all four brothers but the 1911 census of Bathurst shows, Thomas Aubie married to Gertie Roy - my grandparents. Thomas is working in the lumber industry and they seemed to live on St. Andrews Street in Bathurst. If we proceed with this confusing name path we see that my father, Thomas Martin, is registered as Thomas Martin Lavigne on his baptismal certificate of 1904 in the Church Archives and not Thomas Martin Aubie as his birth certificate, his social insurance number and his passport all claim. Confusing, right? The change seems to have been made between 1904 and 1911 for this branch of the Lavigne family and my father simply said it was because there were too many Lavignes in Bathurst. He claimed that Lavignes were marrying Lavignes and it was simply too confusing when second and third cousins married. My father caused quite a family scandal when he married an English woman, Laura Anningson from Campbellton in 1928. Unfortunately we were raised as English children and lost our French tongue with my generation. Thomas Martin Aubie and Laura Jenetta Anningson had four children; John Martin Aube 1928, Pearl Elizabeth 1933-2005, Robert Harold (me) 1941 and Margaret Judith 1949. Strangely enough my birth is registered as Aubie (the spelling my father used) and the others are registered as Aube because they were baptised by a French Priest in Bathurst.

Hi Paul, I was checking the death date for Jacques Leblanc and someone had given me 26 May 1731, St-Charles-des-Mines, Nova Scotia, Canada.  So, i can change this to 1693? I've been trying to send you a variety of information to help confirm some of what other's had passed on to me, probably errors.  I needed some help to close up a few loose ends.  Would this be ok to do if i sent some random stuff from time to time? I was getting pretty frustrated with a cousin who wanted me to delete the parents of Jean Lavigne, being (Nicolas Lavigne & Marie Anne Clemenceau), plus all ties leading to Jean Roy & Marie Christine Aubois.  She's been forever wanting me to just delete these ancestors totally. She says they are not my ancestors.  So, she claims Steve White can confirm this, so delete Jean Lavigne's parents and i have no native ties to Jean Roy and Aubois. Hope all is well with you. Thanks,  CM

There is a marriage repertoire for that church, compiled by Sylvie Tremblay, along with those of St-Dominique Ch., Quebec City; St-Charles Garnier Ch. of Sillery; St-Jean-Baptiste de la Salle Ch. and Ste-Genevieve Ch, both in Ste-Foy, QC. I have used the book but do not own a copy of it. I tried to do a search via the Internet and could not find their marriage in Quebec, nor at the Provincial Archives of New Brunswick site. Perhaps someone with Ancestry can find it as I don't have a subscription. Here are links to two or more trees with some information: http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=acadianroy&id=I8795 http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=acadianroy&id=I8719 You can find two others at Rootsweb.com by clicking on the Family Trees box in top menu. Enter Pelletier + Helene in the boxes, and when they all pop-up, go to bottom boxes and to spouse, and type: Firmin (no surname). Four trees will appear in the search results, but take all these with a grain of salt. One tree at Rootsweb has their marriage listed at Edmundston, NB on 20 Apr 1920, but in the absence of that record, do not know how accurate it is. Those trees at Rootsweb family search also list different parents for Firmin; in one, it gives Alphonse and Philomene (Hudon) D'Amours; in another, Alphonse and Albertine (Ouellet) D'Amours. He was allegedly born at Riviere-du-Loup (Kamouraska), QC [St-Patrice parish], and baptized there on 19 Dec 1885 (or thereabouts). Family search website does not bring that parish's registers up to that year, stopping at 1880, so there's no way of my checking who his real parents are. Perhaps someone with a subscription to Ancestry can locate the record for you. One tree says he died on 18 Dec 1971, probably in Quebec City, but no place is given, so how does one really know? One tree also says he was previously married to a Corinne Belanger. I have not found any record to substantiate this. As for Helene, she was the daughter of Romuald and Olive (Lee) Pelletier of St. Basile, NB. Helene was supposedly born there on 25 Sep 1892; and died on 6 Jun 1936 (don't know where, could be Quebec City??). One tree also says she married a Raoul Belanger at St-Basile, NB in 1912. I could not find that marriage at the Provincial Archives of New Brunswick either, so don't know how true it is; but I did find a daughter of theirs, Marie-Aline Belanger born at Edmunston, NB on 25 Aug 1913. Their marriage is probably listed in the series of marriages of Madawaska County, but I do not have a copy of that set of books to check the marriage of her parents and their parentage. One of the things I detest about people throwing things on Rootsweb is that they never list places or sources. At least with a place, one can usually find alternative material or sites to check the information given. Without a place, Quebec and New Brunswick are quite vast areas to research, so let this be a lesson to everyone placing questions on message boards or adding trees to any databases.... please, please, please, list a place with your d/m/y data. It helps people zero in on information without taking up a ton of time and effort on the part of researchers trying to help find an answer for you. Am sure anyone with an Ancestry subscription can be of more help. For what this is all worth... at least it's a path to finding your data.

Correction: That should have been 19 December 1885, (NOT 18 Dec 1884), sorry. Rest of his baptism ceremony was supplied on 22 December in Cacouna, QC. And by the way, his uncle Firmin Courberon dit D'Amours was his godfather; Divine (surely short for Ludivine) Lacombe was his godmother. Congrats, Paul! That has to be him as the facts all match.
