This family is one of the best of the joyful challenges faced when researching our French ancestors. Pierre CADEAU and Josephte DUHAIME are my 3 x great grandparents - you'll have to dig around until you're comfortable with your own sources etc - but what I have found (and I'm not listing the sources here, too challenging for me to find at the moment, tucked away in another computer) is that the first HENAULT/ENAULT/ENAUD to set foot on these shores from Normandie used "dit Canada" upon his arrival in 1665. That fellow would be my 9x great grandfather Jacques (his wife one of the filles du rois, Marie LEROUX). So - as you can see, the confusion began when they hopped off the boat! The story of this first couple can be found in Volume 2 of King's Daughters and Founding Mothers: The Filles du Roi, 1663-1673 by Peter Gagne. Have fun!
