Location: DUGAS, Abraham, came from France with his wife, according to his great-grandson Alain LeBlanc (Doc. inéd., Vol. III, p. 50). This deposition does not name Abraham's wife. She is identified as Marguerite Doucet by four Acadian censuses between 1671 and 1700 and by her burial record in the register of Port-Royal (see DGFA-1, p. 526).

Abraham Dugas apparently had only one wife, Marguerite Doucet. In transcriptions of the 1671 Port Royal Census, her name is given as Marie Judith Doucet; however, in Stephen White's Dictionnaire, her name is listed as Marguerite. They were married about 1647.
