Biography

Marguerite (Lebreton) LeBreton was born in 1726, daughter of Jean LeBreton (1689 - ) and Marie Bertrand (~1694 - 1758).

She was born after her oldest brother who was born in Port LaJoie and before her next brother born in St-Pierre-du-Nord, Isle Saint Jean.

Marguerite was listed with her parents and siblings, at 24 years of age, on the 1752 La Roque census at Saint-Pierre-du-Nord. [1]

She died with her whole family while crossing to France during deportation.[2]

  • No Robert/Lebreton died in Caraquet in 1824-1825. [5]
  • No LeBreton who died 1820-1830 in Quebec. Several Roberts.
  • No census with children names in that area.

Why is this person posted as one of the children
Paul, i could find no documentation to place her in this family. Before disconnecting her I would like to try to ID her and give her real parents. That’s hard to do on my phone while traveling. I’ll take care of it next week. Thanks for pointing it out.
