Flag of Acadia

Jerome was born in 1680. Jerome Denys and Marie Gero (Giraud) are named as parents in their daughter's baptism[1]

Jérôme Darois, born in Paris in c1670, arrived in Acadia by 1698, the year he married Marie, daughter of Dominique Gareau and Marie Gaudet at Port-Royal. They moved to the Minas Basin. In 1706, during Queen Anne's War, the British held Jérôme as a prisoner in Boston, Massachusetts. After the war, he returned to his home at Minas. The couple and their children moved to Petitcoudiac, probably to put even more distance between themselves and the British authorities at Annapolis Royal. Jérôme and Marie had 10 children, half of them sons. Their five daughters married into the Trahan, Breau, Gaudet, Saulnier, and Pitre families. Jérôme, père died at Petitcoudiac in c1750, age 80.

Denys-105 and Darois-2 appear to represent the same person because: After review of the merge of daughter Marie Josephte, it appears that the transcription in the Nova Scotia registers incorrectly made her name Denys. Thus the father was also incorrect, and the mother same. I'll PPP the Darois name as that is the correct version.

Darois-12 and Darois-2 appear to represent the same person because: Duplicate profiles found in merge request...same name, spouse

I think Darois-12 may be a match for this profile.
