b. Loudon, FRANCE d. Acadia, CANADA
Rensaid that Rena date which coincides with the arrival, in Acadia, of Isaac de Razilly. Due to the efforts of Isaac de Razilly (1587-1635) andhis successor, Charles de Menou D'Aulnay (c.1604-1650)8, it has beenestimated, that about 120 permanent inhabitants came to Nova Scotiaduring a ten year period between 1632 and 1642: the "Brmilies prior to1636. Likely, there were a few French families established in Nova Scotiabefore 1636; and, where so, it is further likely, that the wife was afull blooded Micmac. The first French Acadian families (women andchildren) cameover in 1636. The Saint Jehan, "under the command ofCaptain Saunic weighed anchor at La Rochelle April 1, 1636, carrying 78passengers and 18 crewmen ..."9 A precious passenger list, of this voyagein 1636 has survived and has been published10; it lists all the men andwomen who boarded the Saint-Jehan and includes names such as LeCreux (oneof the leaders), Motin, Martin (farmer), LeMoine (farmer), Blanchard(vinegrower). Of this 1636 group, it would appear, out of 96, there werebut eleven French women, I submit, the first ever to arrive andpermanently settle in Acadia. The rest were workmen, most of whom wouldhave returned back to France within a year or two of their arrival.11Thus the first Acadian families might have been found working and living,between the years 1632-1636, on the shores of the LaHave River (aroundthe present day community of LaHave, Lunenburg). This first community, adozen families, or so (there are no records), due to political reasons,were relocated to Port Royal sometime just after 1636. At any rate wepick up our story at Port Royal in 1640. It is likely, that directly toPort Royal, Rena Bourc), together with their first born, a son, Ren, isthat they were to have ten children, the four males being: Renldrenlisted, including: Pierre (age 13), Claude (age 8); they have 10 cattleand 6 sheep. In the census of 1678, we again see Rene and Perrine withtheir two boys Pierre and Claude, living on an acre of land, and 10cattle. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- LandryGenealogy, Internet

"For many years, it was thought that he was the son of another Rene Landry, who was born in 1618 and who also lived in Port Royal. However,recent research has shown that this was not the case and that these twoRene Landrys were of completely different families. According to theserecent researches, Rene Landry, our ancestor, the first of our family tocome to Acadia, arrived in Port Royal in 1653, with a group that includedEmmanuel LeBorgne and Marie Bernard.

"Response to letter from Dr. Donald J. Landry of Metarie, LA:
...regarding the origins of the LANDRYS, I must say there is probably no other Acadian family about whose background there has been so muchspeculation and wishful thinking. The result is that what we do actuallyknow about the LANDRY families who immigrated from France to Acadia hascome to be regrettably enshrouded in a dense fog of error and confusion.
Four individuals named LANDRY who were all born in France appear in the Acadian censuses of 1671, 1678, 1686 and 1693. Two of these were men,both named Rene, and two were women, named Perrine and Antoinette. Manyresearchers have presumed that these four LANDRY were all closelyrelated, but such is not the case. In fact, while it is possible to provethat Antoinette LANDRY was the sister of one of the Renes [the elder] andpermissible to believe that Perrine LANDRY was his sister as well, it canalso be demonstrated that the three siblings could not have been any morenearly related to the other Rene LANDRY than as cousins in the thirddegree.
The proofs to which I have just alluded repose in the presence or absence of dispensations for consanguinity in the records of the marriages of thedescendants of the LANDRYS. As you may know, until the First World Warthe Catholic Church required dispensation of relationships, whether byblood or by marriage, as remote as the fourth degree, that is, as distantas those between third cousins, or persons whose great-grandparentsincluded siblings.

"NEW INFORMATION ON THE FIRST LANDRY IN ACADIA.
Without doubt there is no other great Acadian family whose origin has been the object of such speculation and even fantasy, as the LANDRYS. Asa result, what we know about the first LANDRYs from France isunfortunately embedded in a mof confusion and errors. Four people namedLANDRY, all of whom were born in France, appear on the Acadian census of1671, 1678, 1686 and 1693. Two were brothers, both named Renrcherspresumed that these four LANDRYS were all from the same family, butthat's not the case. Actually, even if it was possible for us to showthat Antoinette LANDRY was the sister of one of the two Renld believethat Perrine LANDRY was also his siter, we have also proof that thesethree people could not be connected to the other Rennd in thedispensations, or lack of same, in marriage records of LANDRYdescendants. As for the line of parentage between Antoinette LANDRY andRentte and Madeleine DUPUIS, great-granddaughter of Reneengreat-grandchildren of Antoinette and great-grandchildren of Rensubjectof LANDRYS that Father Patrice GALLANT published in "Cahiers de la Socrand mother of Madeleine DUPUIS, Jean DUPUIS and Anne RICHARD, withanother couple, Jean DUPUIS and Marguerite RICHARD, who were in fact thenephew and cousin germain of the two others. By chance, the two DUPUIScouples count each one a descendant of the LANDRYs, but the mother ofMadeleine DUPUIS, Anne RICHARD, actually was the granddaughter ofRenALLANT thus confused the two Rend, only gives us additional proof ofthe relationship between Antoinette LANDRY and Rention granted in themarriages between their respective great-grandchildren as well aspresuming that Antoine BOURG and Perrine BOURG were brother and sister,that is supposing that Antoinette LANDRY and RenHappily, there are waysto resolve this dilemma. Perrine BOURG married Simon PELLETRET beforebecoming the wife of Renhildren of the two PELLETRET sisters andgreat-grandchildren of Antoine BOURG. If Perrine and Antoine had beenbrother and sister, the marriage records of these seven marriages shouldhave mentioned dispensations from the fourth degree of consanguinity, butno dispensations occurred. We then are able to eliminate the possibilitythat Perrine and Antoine were sister and brother, leaving us to theconclusion that we can accept as being sufficient proof that AntoinetteLANDRY was the sister of Renhe daughter of Renwas also his sister.Unfortunately, Perrine did not leave any descendants in Acadia, so thereis no other possible way to find proof that we can mention regardingAntoinette LANDRY. On the other hand, Rensame family as the others. Wecan agree to this starting with the lack of dispensations fromrelationship in the marriage records of his descendants who married, aswith those of Ren, for example, of Germain DUPUIS, grandson of Renif thetwo Renship in the marriage record of Joseph LANDRY and Marie JosepheBOURG (at Grand-Prember 6, 1721). Of these three couples, the LANDRYSwere grandchildren of Renor even the nephew, of Antoinette LANDRY. Someresearchers are under the impression that the ancestor of the LANDRYS wasJean Claude LANDRY, spouse of Marie SALLE, but no one of this nameappears in any document concerning Acadians from the beginning. In thecensuses of 1671 and 1678, the deceased husband of Marie SALLE is simplycalled Jean (or even Jehan according to the 1671 census) Claude. Aresearcher with a lot imagination aded LANDRY to the name of Jean Claudein order to explain why Marie SALLE lived between Ren, which could betrue and that she was related, by the first marriage to Michelle AUCOIN,to the daughter at whose home she lived in the censuses of 1671 and 1678,which is also possible. The only way the researchers could prove theassociation of Marie SALLE to Renisn't logical to suppose that the familyname of Jean Claude was omitted by two distinct census takers. we notethat there are those who have already rejected the faulty idea that thesecond spouse of Marie SALLE was a LANDRY and have even advanced thehypothesis that he was an Amerindian. This is possible, but we mentionthat it is also possible he was a Frenchman because CLAUDE was adistinguished family name in French households in the 17th century.Censuses give us no other indication of the origin of Jean Claude so hisorigin as all the French origins of the LANDRYS, too, remain to bedetermined."

In 1700, Marie owned 23 cattle, 38 sheep, 2 guns, and 30 arpents ofland.
The 1714 census shows her as a widow living next to her son Charles.

The name "Claude" was furnished through an email received by E.J.Comeau.
Rene was recruited from the Seigneury of Aulnay as a colonist forAcadia where he arrived in 1640.
The census of 1671 of Port Royal lists him as a plowman having 12arpents of land in two locations, 10 cattle, and 6 sheep.
One source has Rene dying in 1685 in Quebec which makes sense since inthe census of 1686 Perrine is shown living with her son Claude andhiswife Marguerite Terriot. In 1693, she is still with ClaudeandMarguerite.
