Biography

Jeanne Gautrot was born about 1687 in Grand-Pré, Acadie, Nouvelle-France, daughter of Claude Gautrot and Marie Thériot. ^[1]

Jeanne (15) married Jacques Hebert (25) (born in Port-Royal, Acadie; son of Jean Hébert and Marie Anne Doucet) in 1703 in Grand-Pré. ^[1]

Their children were:

1. Jacques Hébert (~1704 - 1779)
2. Marie Jeanne Hebert (~1709 - <1767)
3. Pierre Hebert (~1712 - )
4. Madeleine Hebert (~1714 - 1799)
5. Magloire Hebert (~1716 - 1780)
6. Marguerite Hebert (~1718 - <1761)
7. Joseph (Hebert) Hébert (~1720 - 1803)
8. Jean Baptiste Hebert (1723 - )
9. Marie-Josephe Hebert (~1732 - 1756)
10. Marie-Anne Hébert (~1735 - 1810)

In 1750, Jacques and Jeanne were residing in Rivière-des-Mines or des Hébert with two children. ^[2] In 1752, they were recorded as refugees at Pré-des-Bourque with two girls, ^[3] and again at the same location in 1755. ^{[4] [5]} In 1755, they escaped deportation by fleeing possibly to Ile Saint-Jean, and from there they made their way to Québec City. ^[5] They perhaps travelled on the ship Le Dondonnais that left Ile Saint-Jean on 26 July 1756 and docked at the port of Québec on 13 August 1756. ^[6] Widowed Jacques and several members of his family were on the ship: his daughter Marie-Josephe Hebert and her children, whose husband had been deported without his family to South Carolina, also his daughter Madeleine Hebert and her children. Her husband was deported to Georgia.

Jeanne died between 1755 and August 1756.

Jacques died at age 80 in Quebec city on November 27, 1756,

DNA

• Maternal relationship is confirmed through Mitochondrial DNA test results on Family Tree DNA. Thomas C. Patin, FTDNA kit #N28763, and his maternal line cousin UNK (a direct descendant of Marie Celise Hebert), FTDNA kit #B318712, have an exact HVR1 and HVR2 match, thereby confirming their direct maternal lines back to their most-recent common ancestor who is Michelle Aucoin, the 10th great grandmother of Thomas C. Patin, and 10th great grandmother of UNK. See this diagram from the Mothers of Acadia DNA Project for more information.
