    1. [ACADIAN-CAJUN] Serreau?

    3. Not sure how the Serreau name connects w/the LePoupet name--suggestions are welcomed. Thank you. Trev He and another Acadian named Petitpas, with their families, were prisoners in Boston in 1692; and the English governor sent them, with two French deserters, to capture Baron De St. Castine, at Penobscot, keeping their families as hostages. They revealed the plan and gave up the deserters, (b) and subsequently received from the French authorities a grant of money for their services. St. Aubin probably went to France in 1703, and hence was absent at the time of Church's visit. He is afterwards heard of at Port Royal, where in 1705 he seems to have died in poverty, (c) caused doubtless, by his losses through Church's expedition. A son of his, Louis Simon de St. Aubin, le Poupet, Chevalier de la Boularderie, in 1702 married Magdalaine Melancon, and was Captain of a company at the defense at Port Royal against the British in 1707.
