Jeanne est né vers 1688.[1] Ses parents Thomas et Marie-Madeleine Girouard figuraient parmi les premiers colons de Beaubassin (Amherst, Nouvelle Écosse, Canada)[2]. Leur ferme était située à Ouescoque (Pointe Amherst).[3]en Y à L.[1] Le destin de Jeanne Cormier est inconnue.
Jeanne was born around 1688.[1] Her parents Thomas Cormier and Madeleine Girouard were among the first pioneers at Beaubassin and had a large farm at nearby Ouescoque (Amherst Point, Nova Scotia).
In 1686, at Chiqnitou dit Beaubassin, Jeanne, aged 1, a twin (sic), was living with her parents, Thomas Cormier, aged 55, and Magdelaine (sic) GIROUARD, aged 37, and her 8 (sic) siblings: Magdeleine (sic), aged 18, Francois, aged 16, Marie (sic), aged 12, Alexis, aged 14, Germain, aged 10, Pierre, aged 8, Angelique (sic), aged 4, and Marie, aged 1, a twin. The family owned 4 guns and was living on 40 arpents of cultivable land with 30 cattle, 10 sheep, and 15 hogs. See "Research Notes".[4]
The fate of Jeanne Cormier is unknown. She disappeared after the 1700 census at the age of 12.
In the original 1686 census at Chiqnitou dit Beaubassin, Marie Madeleine Girouard was listed as Magdelaine Girouer. Marie Madeleine (daughter) was listed as Magdelaine and transcribed as Magdeleine. Marie Anne was listed as just Marie. Claire was listed as Angelique. Marie and Jeanne were listed as twins when the twins were actually Agnes and Marie. Agnes was not listed at all even though she was listed in the 1693 census. Jeanne was not a twin. The 1686 census at Beaubassin may not have been taken until 1688 since Jeanne was born in 1688 and is listed in the 1686 census. The 1686 census lists 4 boys and 5 girls by name while White’s Recensement de Beaubassin 1686 lists 3 boys and 6 girls by number.[5]
