"But those who stayed became the founding generation of the Acadians: Pierre Lejeune and his wife (her name Unknown), with their three young children; Jean Theriot and Perrine Rau, she pregnant with their first child; Vincent Brun and Renee Breau with tow infants; the widower Jean Gaudet with his three children; Martin Aucoin, his wife Marie Salle, and their four children; Michel Boudrot, who married the Aucoins' daughter Michelle; Robert Cormier and his wife Marie Peraud; and a large party of interrelated Bourgs and Landrys, including the siblings Perrine, Rene, and Antoinette Landry, and the cousins Antoine and Perrine Bourg. Of the many unattached young men arriving in the province, most returned, but those who remained married the daughters of settlers and raised families of their own: Francois Gautrot, Abraham Dugas, Antoine and Etienne Hebert, Francois Savoie, Francois Girouard, Daniel Leblanc, Michel Dupuis, Pierre Comeau, Antoine Belliveau, Vincent Breau, Antoine Babin and Pierre Thibodeau. A fair number of French garrison soldiers stayed on after completing their terms of service, including Jean Poirier and Michel Richard, and the offspring of a few French officials and military officers established family lines at Port Royal, among them Claude Petitpas, whose father was syndic (chief civil officer) of the settlement; Pierre, Marguarite, and Germain Doucet, the children of the commander fo the Port Royal garrison; and Jacques Bourgeois, the commander's nephew and a military surgeon. By 1650 some fifty families linked by kinship and culture, were living and farming at Port Royal. There were "two hundred people under his care," d'Aulnay reported, "soldiers, farmers, artisans, without counting their wives and children, nor the Indian children."
