Hello List, I was looking up the family of Paul BOURGEOIS & Marie Josephe BRUN for Roger Rozendal. They married at Port Royal, Acadia in 1727. I looked in Milton P. & Norma Gaudet Rieder, ACADIAN CHURCH RECORDS, vol. II Beaubassin 1712-1748. It transcribes the 6 registers from Beaubassin, deposited at the Archives of the Mayor of La Rochelle, France (at least at the time of reprinting in 1975). There are gaps in the registers from Jul 1723 - May 1732, and from Mar 1735 - Feb 1740. Could Michel BOURGEOIS not be of this family, so not in the Beaubassin registers? Or was he born around 1738 during one of the gaps? The only children listed are these. p. 33 Marie Joseph [sic] BOURGEOIS, daughter of Paul BOURGEOIS & Marie Joseph BRUN, baptized 20 Aug 1733. Sponsors: Jean Jacques BOURGEOIS & Anne BOURGEOIS. p. 54 Anne Marie BOURGEOIS, daughter of Paul BOURGEOIS & Marie Joseph BRUN, baptized 4 Jun 1740 at Beaubassin. Sponsors: Paul SIRE & Marguerite BOURGEOIS. p. 88 Scolastique BOURGEOIS, daughter of Paul BOURGEOIS & Marie Joseph BRUN, born and baptized 10 Feb 1743 at Beaubassin. Sponsors: Jacques VIGNOT & Marie Joseph RICHARD. p. 100 Pierre BOURGEOIS, son of Paul BOURGEOIS & Marie BRUN, born and baptized 23 Jan 1745 at Beaubassin. Sponsors: Jean Baptiste BERNARD & Anne BOURGEOIS. p. 124 Jean Baptiste BOURGEOIS, son of Paul BOURGEOIS & Marie Joseph HEBER (BRUN), born and baptized 1 Jan 1748 at Beaubassin. Sponsors: Pierre CHIASSON & Rose BOURGEOIS. I also have a Paul II born about 1731 (during a gap, or possibly at Port Royal?); Joseph, born about 1736 (during a gap). Any ideas about Michel?

You make it sound so simple. The Caissie do not come from "Casey immigrants". That surname is given only to some of the descendants of Roger Kuessy (1671 Census in Acadia). He is also the ancestor of the Caissey, Caissy, Quessy and a few other spellings I came across in my research. Casey is simply another version of the Gaelic surname O'Catasais. So Caissie is not just another spelling for Casey. In Acadia it started as Kuessy, at one point was also Quessy, and in 1776 it came out as Cassie. You say Casey immigrants; it was one only immigrant - I prefer settler - of Irish nationality (the description in the deposition by Roger in the witchcraft trial of Campagna). Roger, who I believe was the first Irishman by any name to settle in what is now Canada, and his children were known as Kuessy (1671); Chessy (1701); Roger (1703); Keney and Queney (1707); Kessis (1714); Kessy (1741); Quessi, Quessy, Caissy and Cayssy (1752); Kasey and Casie (1755) and Cassie (1776). All this to say that over a century after Roger Kuessy's arrival, the full name Caissie had not yet made its appearance. It is not a case of "casey (who) soon became cassie". In an effort to make it easier for genealogy research, many books have given the spelling Caissie to the first generation of descendants of Roger (even Stephen White has done so in his Dictionnaire) but that spelling only came much later. It is today by far the most common spelling for Roger's descendants.

Hi: According to Stephen White his parents are unknown. I have about 52,000+ Boudrot's in my file, and I have 4 Jean Boudrots that are not married, and are "possibilities", based on what I have, sorted by age. 1:Jean B:13 Jun 1725 Died:1796 (Claude/Catherine Hebert) 2:Jean B:15 Dec 1737 (Joseph/Anne Leblanc) 3:Jean B: 1738 (Jean/Marguerite Comeau) 4:Jean B:25 Apr 1749 (Pierre/Madeleine Melanson) I think Mr. White has accounted for all of the above, but someday, something may turn up on one of them to make a connection to Marguerite Guilbeau.

I cannot find any other records for Joseph until he is shown with Elizabeth by Robichaux and BRAUD and on his way to Louisiana aboard the Le Beaumont. My question is does anyone know how Joseph CAILLOUET arrived in France? Thanks Andy Scott
