Biography

Marie Granger was born to Rene Granger and Marguerite Terriot around 1697 in Port Royal.^[1] She appears as a 4-year old in the 1700 census of Port Royal.^[2]

Marie Granger wed Germain Dupuis, son of the deceased Martin Dupuis and Marie Landry in what appears to be a double marriage with her sister Marguerite on 3 November 1717 in Grand Pré.^[3][4]

On 5 September 1755, Germain was imprisoned along with hundreds of other Acadian men at the St. Charles des Mines church in Grand Pré. On a list of prisoners, he was said to live in the village Dupuis with 3 daughters (spouses were not included on the list), and owned 6 bullocks, 6 cows, 6 young cattle, 44 sheep, 25 hogs, and 4 horses. His property and livestock became forfeit to the crown, and his family was required to prepare for deportation within 30 days.^[5] Germain, Marie and their daughters Marie-Marguerite, Anne and Marie-Madeleine were deported to Massachusetts between 13 and 20 October 1755. ^[6][7]

Marie passed away during this time as Germain appears without her on the August 14, 1763 census of Acadians in Boston, Massachusetts.^{[8] [9]}
