The first Dugas in North America was Abraham Dugas, who arrived in Acadiafrom France in 1640 at the age of 24. Abraham settled at Port Royalwherehe practiced his trade of gunsmith. He married Marguerite Doucet,thedaughter of Germain Doucet, dit Laverdure, and Marie Bourgeois, atPortRoyal in 1647.
Abraham was kept busy at his trade, because, by the Acadian census of1671, every man and boy over the age of 13 owned a gun. Not only weretheguns necessary for hunting; they were also used in the defense ofthecolony, which was almost constantly under attack by the British.
Abraham Dugas also farmed and held the offices of justice of the peaceand chief of police at Port Royal. He acquired a fair amount ofwealthfor the time. Abraham and Marguerite had three sons and fivedaughters.Their children married into the Melanson, Bourgeois, Arsenault,Bourg(Bourque), Guilbaud (Guilbeaux) and LeBlanc families. The familyspreadacross the colony, and by the second generation there were Dugas atGrandPrographic spread ofthe family insured that its members would bescattered far and wide bythe deportation and its aftermath.
The first Dugas in Louisiana arrived in 1765. Several of these firstfamilies settled the region known as the Acadian Coast alongtheMississippi River above New Orleans. These families includedFrancoisDugas and his sister, Rose (16) and four younger brothers ornephews,Charles (15), Michel (13), Athanase (12), and Th
Francois married Marguerite Babin in 1768, and his brothers/nephews alsomarried and raised large families. Their descendants formed the bulkofthe Dugas in Ascension and St. James Parishes in the early part ofthe19th century. Some became antebellum sugar planters with plantationsjustbelow Donaldsonville. Today, many of these families have relocated totheBaton Rouge and New Orleans areas.
Three Dugas brothers, Charles, Jean, and Pierre settled in the Attakapasregion near Bayou Teche. These three brothers were the sons ofCharlesDugas and Anne Robichaud of Acadia, and the grandsons of ClaudeDugas andMarguerite Bourg, also of Acadia. Claude had been the great-grandson ofthe Abraham Dugas and Marguerite Doucet. Charles Dugas marriedMargueriteBroussard, the daughter of Joseph (dit Beausoleil) Broussard.Heestablished a farm on Bayou Teche at Fausse Pointe, nearLoreauville.Pierre married Marie Thibodeau and Jean married MargueriteDupuis. Thesetwo brothers settled on the west bank of the Bayou Vermillonin the areaknown as Grande Prairie. They both became prosperouscattlemen. Later,some of their descendants moved to Calcasieu Parishwhere they eithercontinued the family cattle raising tradition or becamerice farmers.
Twelve more Dugas families arrived in Louisiana with the 1785 migrationof deported Acadians from Nantes, France. Some of these familieshad beendeported first to England, where they were held prisoner untilthe end ofthe Seven Years War. Only about a third of the 1,596 Acadianswho leftFrance in 1785 to come to Louisiana were born in Acadia. Thegreatmajority were born in exile.
The travel expenses of the Acadians who left Nantes in 1785 were paid bythe Spanish government, which controlled Louisiana at the time.Galvez,the Spanish governor of Louisiana, was directed by the King ofSpain togive the Acadians farm lands, necessary farming implements and aroyalsubsidy until they became self sufficient.
The Dugas families that arrived in 1785 were Jean-Baptiste Dugas and hiswife, Marie Clossinet and two daughters; Anne-Osite Hof Jean-BaptisteDugas and seven children;Paul Dugas and two children; Pierre Dugas withhis wife, MarguerietDaigle and two daughters; Jean-Pierre Dugas and hiswife, Jeanne Cabon;Alexis Dugas and one daughter; Charles Dugas with hiswife, Anne Naquin;Joseph Dugas and his wife, Anastasie Barrilot with ninechildren, PierreDugas and his wife, Rose LeBlanc, and two daughters; andVictoire Aillet,the widow of Thomas Dugas, along with two children.
Not all of the Acadians were deported. A good number of Acadians managedto escape the deportation. Other Acadians returned to Acadiafollowingthe deportation. A good number of these established themselvesin NovaScotia on the Baie-Ste-Marie. One escapee of the deportation wasJosephDugas, who eventually managed to obtain a temporary residencepermit fromthe English and worked for English settlers who had taken theAcadianfarmland. Joseph married Marie- Josephe Robichaud, andthey leftthe PortRoyal area, now renamed Annapolis Royal, during the summer of1768 forthe Baie-Ste-Marie to the south and west. Fifteen days aftertheirarrival, Marie-Josephe gave birth to a son, Joseph, who was thefirstAcadian born on the Baie. Today, the school for Acadians in theregion isnamed
Other Dugas settled in Quc and progressive mayor, Roberta Dugas.
Visitors to L`Habitation, the Canadian park on the site of Port Royal,can obtain a map of the Acadian settlement, and it is possible tovisitthe ancient homesite of Abraham Dugas and Marguerite Bourgeois.
