- “Michel Boudreau, who was born in France around 1600 and who settled in Acadia during the 1630s, is the ancestor of the Acadian family of that name.  He was probably recruited by Gov. Charles d'Aulnay since he was present at the baptism of the governor's daughter, Marie d'Aulnay, on Sept. 21, 1639, in his capacity as First Trustee of Port-Royal.  He was also one of the signatories of an attestation favorable to d'Aulnay's works in 1687.  At the Port-Royal census of 1671, he was 71 years old and the father of a family of 11 children, three of whom were married. He had married Michelle Aucoin in France. In 1686, he was lieutenant general and judge of the Port-Royal tribunal.  His son Charles settled at Pisiguit and Claude at Grand Pre, while Jean and Michel went to Beaubassin. His other sons stayed at Port Royal, including Abraham, who was a navigator and merchant.  He traded with Boston on his shallop, the Marie.  In January 1693, Commander de Villebon sent him on a mission to Boston where he was to make discreet inquiries about the state of affairs there and to report to him.  He seems to have acquitted himself of his mission with success.  Following in the footsteps of Abraham, several descendants of Michel Boudreau and Michelle Aucoin became navigators.”  [Telegraph-Journal, Monday, July 25, 1994; p.
