Germain DOUCET was born in 1596 in France. Germain DOUCET dit Sieur de La Verdure was a native of Couperans-en-Brie, near Paris. The name of his wife is unknown; it has been said that he was the brother-in-law of Jacques BOURGEOIS. His son Pierre was born in 1621 and his daughter Marguerite Louise in 1625, both in France. Presumably they came to Acadia with their father about 1632 when he entered the service of Charles d'AULNAY.
In 1640 he was a master-in-arms at Pentagouet (Castine, Maine) where he commanded the French fort with the rank of major. Germain enjoyed an especially close relationship with d'AULNAY who, in his will of January 20, 1649, instructed his wife to take care of Germain and his wife. He referred to him as "Germain DOUCET dit La Verdure, de la Paroisse de Couperna en Brie." In a codicil of February 20, 1649, d'AULNAY referred to one who should be continued in his job because of the fidelity and affection that he has always shown. LAUVRIERE (La Tragedie d'un Peuple, vol. 1, p. 496) believes that this was a reference to Pierre MELANSON, also known as Sieur de La Verdure, who was chef de la milice in the colony. After d'AULNAY drowned in 1650, Pierre MELANSON became the tutor of d'AULNAY's children, while Germain DOUCET became commandant of the fort at Port Royal. He held this position when SEDGWICK attacked the fort in 1654 and captured Port Royal on August 15. Germain returned to France with the military garrison, as required under the terms of capitulation. His son Pierre and his daughter Marguerite remained in Acadia. He was married to UNKNOWN in France.
