The Brun family from Nova Scotia (originally Acadie) were descended from Vincent Brun, born 1616 in LaChausse, Loudun, France, who married Marie-Renee Breau in France. My line is through their son Sebastien, born c 1654-5, however there was another son Andree, born August 21, 1646. Our family is Acadian and I suggest the following book if you have not studied their history: <http://www.amazon.com/Great-Noble-Scheme-Expulsion-Acadians/dp/0393328279/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1228652983&sr=1-2>A Great and Noble Scheme: The Tragic Story of the Expulsion of the French Acadians from Their American Homeland by <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/search-handle-url/ref=ntt_athr_dp_sr_1?%5Fencoding=UTF8&search-type=ss&index=books&field-author=John%20Mack%20Faragher>John Mack Faragher. My Brun line returned to Nova Scotia (although not to Port Royal) after the Great Deportation and Anglicized the name to Brine. Research on Victor Brun's line will likely reveal the emigration of your line to Quebec, which I expect would be during the Deportation as well. Keep me posted on your findings so we can compare notes on lineages. Thanks, Marilyn Brine Gilmour At 03:00 AM 12/7/2008, you wrote: >Today's Topics: > > 1.
