Author: lgoodin47 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.godin/368.2.2.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hello Lynn; I posted the following information back in June under the Subject "Descendants of Jean Baptiste Godin and Sarah Glasier". Are you this closely related or are you another lineage? I'll send my lineage in a separate post. Regards, Lyle Hello List Members; My name is Lyle Goodin. Jean Baptiste Godin (Born abt. 1855 in Maisonnette, New Brunswick) and Sarah/Sara Glazier/Glasier (Born abt. 18 Oct. 1859 in Shippagan, New Brunswick) were my great grandparents. The family name is Godin in the 1901 census and Goodin in the 1911 census so my surname variation likely occured sometime about then. With the generous assistance of AFC list member Don Godin, I have been able to trace my lineage back to Gabriel Godin and his father Pierre Godin who came to Ville Marie with La Grande Recrue in 1653. Where I still have brick walls is with my grandfather's siblings. To date I have determined that Jean Baptiste and Sarah had at least eight children. Here is what I have discovered so far. If anyone can assist in filling in the gaps, especially for the siblings who remained in New Brunswick, I'd appreciate the help.

    1. [GODIN] Reunion 2009
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: M_YOPPOLO Surnames: Godin,Bellefontaine,Boisjoli,Bellefeuille Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.godin/368/mb.ashx Message Board Post: This story begins in the late 17th century (about 1698) when Gabriel Godin and his wife, Andree-Angelique JEANNES settled/founded the village of Point Saint Anne. During the following years the village prospered and grew. Then in February 1759 a small force of British Troupes (15 men) led by a Lt Moses Hazen raided and destroyed the Acadian village of Pointe Sainte Anne, (The village was located where downtown Fredericton is now) as a consequence of this raid some innocent civilians were killed. These civilians were hastily buried in the village cemetery. This cemetery has since been mistakenly identified as an Indian Cemetery when in reality it is an Acadian Cemetery. Now, we fast forward to 1933 when the cemetery was once again disturbed! This time by a Dr. Wintemberg who came to Point Saint Anne with the expectations of finding pre-historic (First Nation) remains and was surprised to find, buried closely together, and in one case two in one grave, not Indians, but Europeans. In all, seven skeletons were examined. (Two of these remains were those of Anastasie Godin and Madeleine Guilbaut) In no case was there any evidence of Indian (First Nation) at the site. The remains of the two women were then removed to Ottawa where they remain today. As an Acadian and a descendant of Anstasie's family my desire is to have her (their) remains returned to her (their) rightful resting place, Pointe Saint Anne. And the cemetery there properly identified and declared as a National Historical Site. The Bergeron-Damboise families are planning, in conjunction with The Society of History of the River Saint Jean (SHRSJ) a commemoration of the 250 year anniversary of the destruction of the village. We are calling for all Acadians to rally with us in Fredericton on the weekend of the 18th/19th of July (Saturday and Sunday) 2009. This calling includes all Acadians who are descended from the Godin, Saindon, Pare, Bergeron, St Aubin Families as well as any other Acadian family group. Please contact, for Canadian, Aline Cormier ([email protected]) or, for USA, Lawrence Bergeron ([email protected]) for further details.
