**************************
Listed in the 1671 Census as Marie Judith Doucet
*******************
29. (1b) MARGUERITE DOUCET Louise[14,22] was born about 1625. She died 19 Dec 1707 in Port-Royal, Acadia and was buried 20 Dec 1707 in St-Laurent, Port-Royal, Acadia.
BIRTH:
May have been born in France
Census:
1671 Port Royal 46a
1686 Port Royal 50a (sic)
1693 Port Royal 66a
1700 Port Royal
Location: DOUCET, Marguerite, came from France with her husband Abraham Dugas, according to her great-grandson Alain LeBlanc (Doc. inéd., Vol. III, p. 50). This deposition does not name her, but Marguerite is identified as Abraham's wife and ultimately widow by four Acadian censuses between 1671 and 1700 and by her burial record in the register of Port-Royal (see DGFA-1, p. 526). Through the dispensations granted on the occasion of the marriages of some of her descendants with other Doucet descendants, it can be proved that she was a younger sister of the Pierre Doucet who is mentioned in the preceding paragraph. The fact that she came from France shows that Pierre must have originated there too, notwithstanding the affirmation that he came to Acadia from Canada.

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.
