Bastarache family
Telegraph-Journal, Tuesday, July 26, 1994; p. A6
The ancestor of the Bastarache family in Acadia was Jean Bastarache. He was called "Le Basque" because he came from the Basque country. Bastarache settled on the shores of the Port-Royal river after marrying Hugette Vincent around 1684. His grandsons, Pierre and Michel, were deported to South Carolina during the Fall of 1755. Along with a dozen other Acadians, they returned to Acadia by way of Québec - a six months' journey - to find their families.
Michel Bastarache later settled in Tracadie, New Brunswick, where many descendants bear the surname Basque

excerpt from the attached STORY from Stephen white:

Pierre Bastarache, who was born in Port-Royal on November 21, 1724. He flew to Port-Royal on January 26, 1750, with Anne Gaudet, daughter of Jean Gaudet and Madeleine Brun. Around 1752, he emigrated from Port-Royal to the Isthmus of Chignecto. It was among the refugees who were recorded in Tintamarre during the winter of 1754-1755. Taken under arms with his brother Michel during the fall of Fort Beauséjour in June 1755, he was deported without his family to South Carolina. In the fall of 1756, however, the Bastarache brothers returned to Acadia with twelve other Acadians ascending from the interior of the continent. Having therefore joined their wives and children, they could not long evade the English, but again became their prisoners at Fort Cumberland (formerly Beauséjour). Some time after the Treaty of Paris in 1763, they went to settle in the French Village (now Coverdale) and then on the West Bank of the Memramcook River (now Rockland). Around 1787, Pierre and Michel sold their sites to the Acadians who came from the Saint John River. Michel emigrated to Tracadie, New Brunswick, where his many descendants now bear the Basque name. Subsequently, Pierre went to find his sons Joseph and Isidore in Bouctouche, where they had been among the first settlers. He died in Bouctouche on March 21, 1796. He seems to have had six children, including Joseph

Jean Bastarache (Joannis Basterretche), known as the Basque, was born around 1658. He settled in Port-Royal, on land on the south shore of the Dauphin River (now the Annapolis River), near the earthly Paradise (now Paradise).

In 1714, the year after the definitive surrender of Acadia to Great Britain, Jean Bastarache was among the Acadian inhabitants who embarked on the ship of King Mary Joseph to pass to Île Royale.

Translated by Google:

The fact that Jean Bastarache was recorded at Port Royal in 1703 as " Joannis Lebasque " clearly indicates his origin. He was born around 1658 and came to Acadia before 1685 , when he married Huguette Vincent, daughter of Pierre Vincent and Anne Gaudet. Jean Bastarache died at Port Royal on September 5, 1733. The youngest of his five children was called Pierre. He was born in Port Royal, July 18, 1702 , and married in the same place on 19 January 1724 to Marguerite Forest, daughter of René and Françoise Dugas Forest .

The ancestor of the Bastarache family in Acadia was Jean Bastarache. He was called "Le Basque" because he came from the Basque country

August 1695 Jean Bastarache took the oath of allegiance to the King of England at Port-Royal; he made his mark on the document.

In 1703 Jean Bastarache was listed in the census as "Joannis Le Basque" and in 1714 as "Le Basque," which clearly attests to his origin.

29 August Jean Bastarache appears on the list of the inhabitants of Acadia who embarked on the King's vessel, La Marie Joseph, to go to Ile-Royale.

Jean Joannis Bastarache/dit Le Basque, born in 1658 at Bayonne, in the Basque country of southern France, reached Acadia by 1684, the year he married Huguette or Agathe, a daughter of Pierre Vincent and Anne Gaudet, at Port-Royal. They settled on the upper south shore of Rivière-au-Dauphin, now the Annapolis River, miles above the village at Port-Royal, near present-day Paradis, Nova Scotia. Jean and Huguette had five children. Their two daughters married into the Orillon dit Champagne and Girouard families. All three of Jean and Huguette's sons created families of their own:

Oldest son François-Marie, born at Port-Royal in 1687, married Agnès, daughter of Louis-Noël Labauve and Marie Rimbault, at Annapolis Royal in 1714. They had five children, including two sons, but neither of them seems to have married and created families of their own.

Jean, fils, born at Port-Royal in 1696, married Angélique, daughter of Alexandre Richard and Isabelle Petitpas, at Annapolis Royal in 1721. Jean, fils died at Québec in 1757 during Le Grand Dérangement.

Youngest son Pierre, born at Port-Royal in c1702, married Marguerite, daughter of René Forest and Françoise Dugas, at Annapolis Royal in 1724. Pierre died at Annapolis Royal in 1751, age 50.

In 1707, Jean dit Le Basque and his family were still on the river above Port-Royal. When the British took over the colony in 1714, Jean left Port-Royal on the French vessel La Marie-Josèphe for Île Royale, today's Cape Breton Island, probably to look at land there. He died at Annapolis Royal in September 1733, age 75, so he evidently had not liked what he had seen on the big island. Jean, père's sons, like their father, remained in the Annapolis Royal area.

According to Acadian genealogist Bona Arsenault, Jean's brother Michel dit Le Basque also came to the colony, where he was known as a flibustier, or pirate. He brought with him a wife and two children, including a son, Edmond. Arsenault insists that in 1713, at Annapolis Royal, Edmond married Agathe de Saint-Etienne de La Tour, a descendant of former governor Charles La Tour. According to genealogist Stephen A. White, however, it was Edmund Bradstreet of County Tipperary, Ireland, a young lieutenant in the British service, who married Agathe de La Tour at Annapolis Royal, in 1712. The Bastaraches who ended up in Louisiana came from Jean's line, not Michel's.

The family name is spelled Barastarache, Basque, Basterretche, Bastrash. [See also Book Ten]

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.
