Biography
Simon Babin was born on Dec 30, 1741 in Grand Pré, Acadie, Colony of Nova Scotia, son of Pierre Babin and Marie Madeleine Bourg.[1][2]
Research Notes
Note: the entry on that day in the Grand-Pré register is for a Simon Trahan, born to Pierre Trahan and Madeleine Bourg. [3] The godparents were Joseph LeBlanc and Catherine LeBlanc. The website Généalogie Quebec (subscription required) gives the same information. This same baptism record has been attributed to Simon Trahan linked to parents René Trahan and Marguerite Melanson.
No information was found in DGFA (including Ajouts), PRDH or 37 families concerning Simon Babin or Simon Trahan, or a couple named Pierre Trahan and Madeleine Bourg.
It is an error of transcription. The couple Pierre Trahan/Madeleine Bourg never existed. The actual name is Babin. See M.W. Landry's note on this profile on Généalogie des Landry à travers le monde:
- "Indiqué dans le registre de baptême, par erreur comme Simon Trahan fils de Pierre Trahan et Madeleine Bourg. Il n'y a pas de couple Trahan/Bourg en Acadie à cette époque." Simon Babin
- Google Translation:
- "Indicated in the baptismal register, by mistake as Simon Trahan son of Pierre Trahan and Madeleine Bourg. There is no Trahan / Bourg couple in Acadia at that time.
- Godmother: Catherine Leblanc is probably the future wife in 1745 of Jean Baptiste Babin, son of Pierre Babin and Madeleine Bourg.
- Godfather: Joseph Leblanc could be his brother, born in Grand-Pré on February 24, 1720."
