Madeleine was born about 1750. Madeleine Bourque ... She passed away about 1849.
I went in person to The University of Moncton and met Stephen White, and he very kindly helped me with my research when I was working on Cyril H. Despres, his father Hyppolite Despres, then Jean Despres, then Honore Despres Stephen White said to me and I quote, "When you get to Jean Baptiste Despres you will reach a dead end as to his "
But fortunately his wife, Madeleine Bourque, and her lineage are 'first' Acadians and well documented.
