Perrine was born about 1626[1] in France. Her parents are not known, though one theory is Simon Bourg and Helene Comtee. Another theory is that Antoin Bourg was her brother[2] which has been disproven.[3] Another theory is that she is Perrine Rau, and that is also disproven.[2]
Around 1640, Perrine married Simon Pelletret. She gave birth to two children: Henriette (b. 1641) and Jeanne (b.1643).[1]. No additional children are documented or present in any census.
After Simon died, around 1645,[1] Perrine married René Landry (L'Aîné) in Port Royal.[1] Between 1646 and 1663 Perrine gave birth to five additional children: Marie (b.c1646), Marie (b.c1650), Madeleine (1655), Pierre (1658), and Claude (1663).[1]
Twenty six years later, they are found in Port Royal with her daughters from Simon living with the family.[4] Most of the children were gone by 1678; only the three youngest were still there.[5]
By 1686, at Port Royal, Rene had died. Perine [sic] BOURC [sic], mother, aged 74 [sic], was living with her son, Claude LANDRY, aged 24, her daughter-in-law, Marguerite TERRIOT [sic], aged 20, and her granddaughter, Marguerite [sic], aged 18 months. The family owned 1 gun and was living on 3 arpents of cultivable land with 7 cattle, 8 sheep, and 6 hogs.[6]
In 1693, at Port Royal, Perrine BOURG, aged 67, widow of Rene LANDRY, was living with her son, Claude LANDRY, aged 33, and Claude's wife, Marguerite TERIOT [sic], aged 26, and her four grandchildren: Madeleine, aged 8, Marie, aged 6, Claude, aged 3, and Marguerite, aged 1. The family owned 1 gun and was living on 32 arpents of cultivable land with 15 cattle, 15 sheep, and 6 [sic] pigs.[7]
Perrine died after the 1693 Census,[1] as she is not listed in the 1698 accounting.[8]
DNA. The Mothers of Acadia Maternal DNA project is conducting ongoing research to verify their origins. In 2010, Stephen White reported that Perrine Bourg had an H14 haplogroup. The details of how many of her descendants were tested to support this report or any updates are unknown. Ongoing test results are also reported here. As of May 2014, 9 descendants have consistently reported an H haplogroup, indicating European origins.

Translation: We could not determine if there was any family relationship between Perrine Bourg and Antoine Bourg. The absense of dispensing consanguinity in the marriages of Charles Savoie, grandson of Marie Antoine Bourg, with Françoise Antoine Bourg, with Brigette Martin, also granddaughter of Jeanne Pelletret, seems to show us that Perrine ant Antoine were not brother and sister.
Thanks,
