I show the Charles Savoie who was Germain and Marie's son was born in abt 1703 and married Francoise Martin, dau of Etienne Martin and Josephe Marie Comeaux, in 1730. The Charles Savoie who I show was married to Judith Arseneaux was the son of Francois Xavier Savoie and Marie Josephe Richard, was born in 1721, and married Judith Arseneaux in 1761. (This Charles is my 6th Great Grandfather.) Do I have the two Charles' families incorrect? Keith Lorando
You probably already know this. The orphan Basile DesRoches - in the household of Charles Savoie & Judith Arsenault/Arseneau - was Judith's nephew. I'm a descendant of Judith's sister Marie, who married Norman immigrant Julien DesRoches. Basile was a son of Marie & Julien. I'm descended from Basile's brother Mathurin DesRoches. Family oral history tells that Julien & Marie & 2 of their other children died of a "contagion" not long before the 1758 Expulsion from present-day Prince Edward Island. The kids were taken in by various relatives. Basile is the only one who was eventually caught up in the Expulsion. Charles Savoie & Judith Arseneau were indeed among the refugees at Restigouche in the Bay of Chaleurs (which divides northern New Brunswick from the Gaspé region of Québec), until hardship forced that group of holdouts to surrender, whereupon they were (yes) among the huge number of Acadian prisoners held at Halifax and a couple of other sites until well after t! he 1763 peace treaty. This particular household went with the Beausoleil Broussard expedition to the Caribbean & then New Orleans in late 1764-early 1765. See pp. 12-13 in this file: http://1drv.ms/1tBXwtV . I can provide other sources if wanted.
Dear John, Thank you for the DesRoches information! When I asked the Savoie question on the List, I mostly wanted to know what happened to Bazile - how he was orphaned, where in Acadie he lived, the circumstances of his family's expulsion. Judging by his arrival time in Louisiana, I suspected that he had been in Broussard's group, the ones who wouldn't let the governor of Saint-Domingue send them to Mole-St-Nicolas. And I was fairly certain that Judith Arseneaux was his mother's sister. But I had no idea when I cast out that question that I would reel in such a fascinating and detailed story of the family in France and l'Acadie. I wish I had known all this several years ago when I drove through Carolles. I was only able to get a photo of the church, as sunset was closing in and I had miles (or kilometers) to go... I would have stayed overnight and explored the area. The study that Marcel Barriault did is quite impressive in its scope and documentation, as is your translation. I appreciate that you described the nuances of the language and explained how and why you translated certain words and passages. Is Part Two accessible online as well - preferably translated, or in French ? Thank you for sharing all of this with me and for adding to my appreciation of my Des Roches heritage.
