Marie-Madeleine Vincent, daughter of Pierre & Marie Granger, was born about 1725 in the parish of L'Assomption in Acadie. ^{[1] [2]}

Marie (28) married Alexandre Boudreaux (30) (born in Cacagouet, Pisiguit, Acadie, Colony of Nova Scotia) in 1754 in Pisiguit.

Their known son was Jean Baptiste Boudrot (about 1754 – about Jul 12 1832).

She was on the census taken in 1763 at Southampton, Hampshire, England ^[7] As a widow with her sons Jean-Baptiste Boudrot and Joseph Braud, she disembarked at St. Malo from England on 23 May 1763 from the ship "La Dorothee." ^[8]

Marie (38) married Pierre Dugas (54) (born in Cobeguit, Acadie, Nouvelle-France) on Jan 9, 1764 in Saint-Servan, Bretagne, France. ^[9] They resided at St. Suliac from 1763-1772. ^{[10][11] [12]}.
