The BROUSSARD dit Beausoleil Party to the Attakapas District, 1765 ^[3]

Bourgs were among the earliest Acadians to find refuge in Louisiana. The first of them reached New Orleans in February 1765 with the Broussard dit Beausoleil party from Halifax via Cap-Français, St.-Domingue:

Anne Boudrot, age 55, widow of Charles Bourg of Port-Royal, Port-Toulouse, and Île St.-Jean, brought six children with her from the prisons at Halifax--Marguerite, age 28, Marie-Madeleine, called Madeleine, age 21, Gertrude, age 18, L'ange, age 17, Joseph, age 14, and Louise, age 12. Gertrude married Amand, 31-year-old son of fellow Acadian Charles Thibodeau, at New Orleans in late February. Theirs was the first recorded Acadian wedding in Louisiana.

In April, after a short respite in the city, Anne and her children, including Gertrude and her new husband, followed the Broussard party across the Atchafalaya Basin to the Attakapas District, where they helped create La Nouvelle-Acadie along the banks of Bayou Teche. When an epidemic struck the Teche valley settlements that summer and fall, Anne and her three youngest children, L'ange, Joseph, and Louise, along with dozens of other Acadians, fled to Cabanocé/St.-Jacques on the river.

Gertrude remained on the Teche with her new husband; she died a widow at her home at La Pointe, St. Martin Parish, near present-day Breaux Bridge, in June 1827, in her late 70s. Sisters Marguerite and Madeleine also remained on the Teche and married fellow Acadians there. Marguerite married first to Pierre Pitre and then to Charles, son of Joseph Guilbeau dit L'Officier, at Attakapas in November 1775; she died in St. Martin Parish in July 1820, in her early 80s. Madeleine married Sylvain, son of Pierre Sonnier, probably at Opelousas in the late 1760s and died at La Butte, St. Martin Parish, in May 1814, age 70.
