lbergeron@3n.net, You mentioned Nova Scotia. I have these Bergerons. This is from another subscription list: Lucie's is copyrighted and cannot be used for monetary publication. from LucieMC: Bergeron - Bartholémy Bergeron, sometimes called d'Amboise was born in 1664 at Amboise Indre et Loire. He arrived in Acadia (Nova Scotia) in 1685 as a marine volunteer. He was in Quebec until 1690 but relocated again to Acadia circa 1696. A son bearing the same given name as well an members of this family are found settling on the banks of the Mississippi at St. Jacques Louisiana in 1766. From: sewing@cmq.com (guillaume) On the Acadian name site you have certain names which may or may not be from Acadia. Arceneux and Bergeron are certainly from Acadia cf. Le Grande Arraignment du Canada et Quebec. The Authement family is from Martigues, France but they married into the Bourg, Saunier, Faube/Phobst, and Lirette family as soon as they got here. Most if not all their wives were of Acadian Descent. Sincerely, Guillaume Williams Stephen White, Dictionnaire Généalogique des Familles Acadiennes shows the following: Barthelemy BERGERON dit d'Amboise m Genevieve Serreau de Saint-Aubin children Barthelemy b 1696 m Margaurite Dugas Marie c 1698 m.
