ACADIA

Abraham Dugas, a skilled gunsmith perhaps from Chouppes, Poitiers, France, born in c1616, reached Acadia in the early 1640s--among the early settlers of the colony. (There is genetic evidence that Abraham may have had Jewish ancestry, which would have made him unique among his fellow Acadians.) In October 1687, Abraham "made his mark on an attestation in favour of Governor d'Aulnay's accomplishments," which attests to his early presence in the colony. Abraham also was more than a gunsmith at Port-Royal. According to a high French official, Abraham Dugas "carried out the functions of general representative of the King [in civil and criminal matters]," so he probably came from an influential family in France. Abraham married Marguerite, daughter of Germain Doucet, sieur de La Verdure and his first wife, at Port-Royal in c1647. They had eight children, five daughters and three sons, all born at Port-Royal. Abraham died at Port-Royal by 1700. In December 1705, in order to increase the size of the fort at Port-Royal, colonial officials appropriated two lots "adjoining and drawing towards the old fort" that belonged to Abraham's heirs. His daughters married into the Melanson ditLa Ramée, Bourgeois, Mignot dit Châtillon, Arseneau, and LeBlanc families. All three of his sons also created their own families. Some of his children and grandchildren left Port-Royal and settled at Chignecto, Cap-Sable, Minas, Cobeguit, and on Île Royale and Île St.-Jean.

Oldest son Claude, born in c1649, a gunsmith like his father, married first to Françoise, daughter of Jacques Bourgeois and Jeanne Trahan, at Port-Royal in c1673. They had 12 children, including three sons who married daughters of Bernard Bourg. Their nine daughters married into the Melanson, Forest, Bourg, Part dit LaForest, Thibodeau, Hébert, Broussard, and Brun families. Claude remarried to Marguerite, another daughter of Bernard Bourg and Françoise Brun, at Port-Royal in c1697. They had 10 children, including five sons who married into the Coste, Girouard, and Robichaudfamilies. Their five daughters married into the Aubois dit Dubois, Bergeron dit d'Amboise, Amireau, and Belliveaufamilies. Claude also owned land at Chignecto as early as 1682. Claude died at Port-Royal in October 1732, in his early 80s, no doubt surrounded by many children, grandchildren, and even great-grandchildren. Most of his children from his first marriage remained at Port-Royal, though two of his sons settled at Cobeguit, and children from his second marriage settled not only at Port-Royal, but also on Rivière St.-Jean and at Port-Toulouse and Port-d'Orléans on Île Royale, today's Cape Breton Island. Several of his grandchildren settled at Minas. By the early 1750s, many of his grandchildren had moved to Île St.-Jean, today's Prince Edward Island, probably to escape British authority in Nova Scotia.
