Came in 1642 was Judge at Port Royal and Lieutenant General 1686 following is from the Georg e Rose Internet web-site Our French-Acadian Ancestors: "The BOUDROT-BOUDREAU-BOUDREAULT-BOUDREAUX Family The name Boudrot is thought to refer to a descendant of Botthar, an army messenger. Their story and those that are related to us. Michel Boudrot, was born in France around 160I and settled in Port Royal, Nova Scotia, then Acadia during the 1630s, is the ancestor of the Acadian family of that name. He was probably recruited by Gov. Charles d'Aulnay since he was present at the baptism of the governor's daughter, Marie d'Aulnay, on Sept. 21, 1639, in his capacity as First Trustee of Port-Royal. He was also one of the signatories of an attestation favourable to d'Aulnay's works in 1687. At the Port-Royal census of 1671, he was 71 years old and the father of a family of 11 children, three of whom were married. He had married Michelle Aucoin about 1641. In 1686, he was lieutenant general and judge of the Port-Royal tribunal. His son Charles settled at Pisiguit (Windsor, NS) and Claude at Grand-Pre, while Jean and Michel went to Beaubassin (Amherst, NS). His other sons stayed at Port-Royal, including Abraham my wife's direct descendant, who was a navigator and merchant. He traded with Boston on his shallop, the Marie. In January 1693, Commander de Villebon sent him on a mission to Boston where he was to make discreet inquiries about the state of affairs there and to report to him. He seems to have acquitted himself of his mission with success. From Port Royal, these descendants had various residences. Before finally arriving on Isle Madame on Cape Breton Island they lived for periods of time on St. Pierre & Miquelon, French Islands south of the southeast coast of the Province of Newfoundland (still owned by France), Madeleine Island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and finally Isle Madame, one of the great seaport areas of the 19th and early part of the 20th century. Following in the footsteps of Abraham, several descendants of Michel Boudreau and Michelle Aucoin became navigators. In 1755, the Boudrot family was a large one and established in several communities in Acadia. This family was deported in several places in North America and in Europe. Several can be found in different New England colonies, including Massachusetts, Philadelphia, Connecticut and Louisiana. Many were thrown in prisons in southern England (Bristol and Southampton in particular), and were later transported to France after the Treaty of Paris, in 1763. These families were established at Belle-Isle-en-Mer, Cherbourg and Saint-Malo in Northern France. Several of those families found a way of returning to Acadia. Among them, the family of Germain Boudreau who was one of the pioneers of Cheticamp in Cape Breton. Several Boudreau families living at Beaubassin, Î le Saint-Jean and Cape Breton were able to escape the Deportation and found refuge in Quebec. They are to be found in different communities but notably in the Nicolet, Repentigny and Deschambault areas. Others made their way to the Î les-de-la-Madeleine at Petit de Grat on Isle Madame in Cape Breton. Several families settled in New Brunswick in the Memramcook Saint Anselme area, in Caraquet and in Petit-Rocher. The family of Pierre Boudreau and Madeleine Melanson from Port-Royal established itself at Memramcook. Their son, Isaac Boudreau, became the captain of a company of Acadians who supported the American War of Independence. Another of his sons settled at Inkerman in the northern part of the province. Joseph Boudreau, son of Anselme and Marguerite Gaudet of Beaubassin, found refuge at Restigouche on Chaleur Bay where he married Jeanne Hache in 1761. He later lived during a few years on Miscou before settling in Caraquet. He died at Nipisiguit in 1797 However, he is not the sole ancestor of that family in Petit-Rocher since another Boudreau, Joseph-Athanase, who had lived for several years at Deschambault, QueBEC, also settled in Petit-Rocher at the close of the 18th century. The latter was a miller and is the ancestor of the Boudreau's of Beresford. " and translated from the internet site of Robert Rachon, "Liste des Patronymes" MICHEL BOUDROT Unknown parents, born in 1600, probably of the parish of Cougnes, diocese of the Small rock, in France, Michel Boudrot, mar. in 1641, in Port Royal, Michelle Aucouin, born towards 1618, in the surroundings of the Small rock, girl of the carpenter, Martin Aucouin and of Marie Sallé or Salted Port. Michelle Aucouin lately arrived at Port-Royal, in company of her mother, her sister, her brother and of the second husband of his mother, Jean-Claude Landry. Michel Boudrot is present at the time of a baptism, September 21 1639, in the role of first syndic of the Royal one. He is named for this reason, into 1636, by Charles de Menou d' Aulney, the father of baptized. The family of Boudrot must be classified among oldest of Acadie, at least before 1639, in any case, probably since 1632. In the Ãüt acadian census made into 1671, the ploughman Michel Boudrot old of sixty and eleven years, his wife Michelle Aucouin, old of fifty and three years. Michel Boudrot receives the title of lieutenant-General of the jurisdiction of Port-Royal, into 1671. He has 20 animals with horns and 12 ewes, out of eight arpents in culture. Then their eleven children, born between 1642 and 1666, all alive, of which, that which weaves us the link of genealogy in Boudrot, Jeanne, born between 1642 and 1645. Jeanne Boudrot married towards 1666, with Port-Royal with Bonaventure Therriot, or Terriau, wire of Jean Therriot and Perrine Breau (Borough). With the Acadian census of 1686, Jeanne Boudrot is 41 years old and lives with her husband Bonaventure Therriot and them, them two girls. Youngest of both, Marguerite Terriot, concerns us. She marries in 1702, with Port-Royal, Rene Granger, born into 1676, wire of the ancestor Laurent Granger, originating in Plymouth in England and Marie-Henriette Therriot. Michel Boudrot seems to have mixed with the public life, because in 1685, whereas it is 85 years old, it receives from king de France, of the letters patent naming it lieutenant-General civil and criminal of Port-Royal at the country and coast of Acadie, posts that it occupies until 1688. It replaces Abraham Dugast, which has also a link of ancestor with us in the present genealogy. With the acadian census of 1693, Michel Boudrot is deceased. Its widow, Michelle Aucoin, survive to him a few years. It dies in Port-Royal, December 17, 1706, at the 88 years age, buried the following day.
