ESTIENNE HÉBERT

Deux frères Hébert arrivent au Port-Royal, en Acadie, entre les années 1645 et 1650. L�aîné, Antoine Hébert est né entre 1614 et 1621. Il arrive avec son épouse Geneviève LeFrance. Le cadet, Estienne Hébert est né vers 1630.

Nous ignorons le nom de leurs parents, ni le lieu de leur origine exacte. Peut-être originaire de Tourraine ou du Loudunois, de La Chaussée, à Mortaizé.

Il n�existe aucun lien avec le pionnier des pionniers, Louis Hébert. La présente description, porte principalement sur l�ancêtre Estienne Hébert, qui nous crée des liens de descendance, dans cette généalogie.

Estienne Hébert, laboureur et cultivateur, épouse à Port-Royal, en 1650, Marie Gaudet, née entre 1626 et 1633, fille de l�ancêtre Jehan Gaudet et Marie Daussay.

Étienne Hébert et Marie Gaudet ont dix enfants, cinq fils et cinq filles, entre 1651 et 1669, à Port-Royal, en Acadie. Une fille et un fils ont de la descendance qui nous concerne, dans cette généalogie.

Marguerite Hébert est née en 1652, à Port-Royal et devient l�épouse en 1678, de l�ancêtre Jacques-Nicolas LePrince, né en 1646, originaire de St-Malo de Bretagne.

Le fils, Étienne Hébert, né jumeau avec Emmanuel, en 1654, épouse en 1678, à Port-Royal, Jeanne Comeau, née en 1662, sœur de Pierre Comeau, dit L�Esturgeon et fille des ancêtres Pierre-Estienne Comeau et Rose Bayol. Étienne Hébert et Jeanne Comeau ont huit enfants, six filles et deux garçons, dont Jean-Baptiste Hébert, né en 1692. Jean-Baptiste épouse à Grand-Pré, vers 1711, Jeanne-Anne Boudrot, puis, après le décès de celle-ci, il épouse le 9 janvier 1719, Élisabeth Granger, fille de Pierre Granger et Élisabeth Guillebourg. À la quatrième génération, Honoré Hébert, né en 1738, à Pisiguit, épouse le 4 novembre 1771, Madeleine Prince. À la cinquième génération, Jean-Chrysostome Hébert, né en 1779, épouse le 20 avril 1807, à Nicolet, Marie-Anne Héon, née en 1787, à Bécancour. Leur fille, Marie-Zoé Hébert, épouse le 11 janvier 1836, Moïse Boisvert, lien qui se poursuit jusqu�à ma mère, Pierrette Boisvert.

L�ancêtre Estienne Hébert décède en 1670. L�aïeule, Marie Gaudet épouse en secondes noces Dominique Garaut.

La signification du nom Hébert, dérivé en Normandie de Herbert, lui-même issu du nom germanique Hari-Berht, soit de Hari = armée, peuple et de Berht = brillant, illustre.

    Etienne arrived in Acadia (Canada) about 1640. On the original chart that I

Meanwhile, Antoine's brother Étienne, whose birth year is unknown, married Marie, daughter of Jean Gaudet, at Port-Royal in c1650. Étienne is not found in the first Acadian census of 1671 because he died a year or two before it was taken. Before he died, he fathered 10 children, including four sons who started families of their own:
Oldest son Emmanuel, born at Port-Royal in c1653, married Andrée, daughter of Vincent Brun and widow of Germain Thériot, at Port-Royal in c1680. They settled at Port-Royal then moved to Minas and had six children, including four sons who married into the Dupuis, Dugas, and Landry families. Emmanuel died at Grand-Pré in late 1744 in his 90s. Many of his descendants used the dit Emmanuel or Manuel to distinguish themselves from their many cousins.
Étienne, fils, born at Port-Royal in c1654, married Jeanne, another daughter of Pierre Comeaux, at Port-Royal in c1679. They moved to Minas, where they had 11 children, including two sons who married into the Dugas and Granger families. Étienne, fils died at Grand-Pré in November 1713, age 57.
Jean, born at Port-Royal in c1659, married Jeanne, daughter of Jean Doiron, in c1692 at either Port-Royal or Minas. They settled at L'Assomption, Pigiguit, and had 12 children, including six sons who married into the Sonnier, Mius d'Azy, Trahan, Courtenay, Boudreaux, Lejeune, and Michel families.
Youngest son Michel, born at Port-Royal in c1666, married Isabelle, daughter of Francois Pellerin, in c1691 at either Port-Royal or Minas. They settled at Minas, where they had 16 children, including five sons who married into the Caissie, Gautreaux, Boisseau, Levron, Thibodeaux, and Boudreaux families. Michel died at Grand-Pré in January 1736, age 69.
By the mid-1700s, this large family could be found in many of the major Acadian communities of present-day Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, including Port-Royal, Grand-Pré, Pigiguit, Cobeguit, Chignecto, and Chepoudy, as well as on Île St.-Jean. And like most old Acadian families, Le Grand Dérangement of the 1750s scattered this huge family even farther. ...

BACKGROUND: See http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/lwjones/hebert.htm for a summary of this person's family - and an extensive descendancy chart: Antoine and Etienne Hebert were brothers. However, the names of their parents are not known. Arsenault says, in the Port-Royal volume of Histoire et genealogie des Acadiens, that Antoine and Etienne Hebert were the sons of Jacques and Marie Juneau. However, the Corrections to Arsenault states that they are not the sons of this couple, giving no further information; Steve White also says that these were not their parents. I am listing them each on his own page. Antoine arrived in Acadia in 1640, having married in France. This page contains 666 people in 34K. Etienne also arrived in 1640, and married in Port-Royal. His page contains 1124 people and is 57K long. Descendants of the Acadian Heberts are now living mainly in Quebec and Louisiana.  For about 100 years, they were in Bonaventure, in the Gaspe, but this family either moved or died out before 1910 [see extensive descendants' chart at this web site].
