White (pp. 914-915) does not list any parents for Antoinette, Perrine, or René l'aîné; however, it does suppose they are siblings. Please do not change the name of the placeholder parents; or add or change the parents without adding a reliable source citation, so that researchers can evaluate the evidence.

Due to the efforts of Isaac de Razilly (1587-1635) and his successor, Charles de Menou D'Aulnay (c.1604-1650)8, it has been estimated, that about 120 permanent inhabitants came to Nova Scotia during a ten year period between 1632 and 1642: the "Bretagne Colonists." Razilly made his first trip to Nova Scotia in 1632, coming out only with workmen, no families. At any rate, there is no record of Acadian families prior to 1636. Likely, there were a few French families established in Nova Scotia before 1636; and, where so, it is further likely, that the wife was a full blooded Micmac. The first French Acadian families (women and children) came over in 1636. The Saint Jehan, "under the command of Captain Saunic weighed anchor at La Rochelle April 1, 1636, carrying 78 passengers and 18 crewmen ..." A precious passenger list, of this voyage in 1636 has survived and has been published; it lists all the men and women who boarded the Saint-Jehan and includes names such as LeCreux (one of the leaders), Motin, Martin (farmer), LeMoine (farmer), Blanchard (vinegrower). Of this 1636 group, it would appear, out of 96, there were but eleven French women, I submit, the first ever to arrive and permanently settle in Acadia. The rest were workmen, most of whom would have returned back to France within a year or two of their arrival.
Thus the first Acadian families might have been found working and living, between the years 1632-1636, on the shores of the LaHave River (around the present day community of LaHave, Lunenburg). This first community, a dozen families, or so (there are no records), due to political reasons, were relocated to Port Royal sometime just after 1636. At any rate we pick up our story at Port Royal in 1640.
It is likely, that directly to Port Royal, René came out with his young wife Perrine (she was a Bourg, or a Bourc), together with their first born, a son, René, junior, b.c.1640. We now know that this couple were married in France, before they came out to the New World. The only other thing I might say of this first family, at this time, is that they were to have ten children, the four males being: René (b.1640), Pierre (b.1658), Antoine (b.1660), & Claude (b.1662). In the census of 1671, we can see Rene (age 52), Perrine and certain of their children listed, including: Pierre (age 13), Claude (age 8); they have 10 cattle and 6 sheep. In the census of 1678, we again see Rene and Perrine with their two boys Pierre and Claude, living on an acre of land, and 10 cattle.
