There were two Marie Gautrot/Gautreau/Gautro born to François Gautrot. The first Marie Gauterot-13 was born about 1636 in France to Francois and his first wife Marie (unknown). That Marie married ? Potet and Michel Dupuis. ^[1]

This Marie Gautrot-20 (the second one) was born in Acadia about 1645-1647 to Francois Gautrot and Edmee Lejeune.^[2] In 1671 she was listed with her parents as married, age 24, her older sister Marie was also married, age 35.^{[3] [4]}

She married Claude Theriot in about 1661, based on age 9 of their oldest son Germain in 1671. This would make the marriage about 1661 when Marie was about 14-16.^{[5] [6][7]}

By 1678, seven of their children had been born.^[8]. Four more children were born by 1686.^[9] By 1693 the growing family was nearly complete, with 11 of the 14 children born by then, all living in Port Royal. ^[10][11] Just one more child was to be born, probably just after the 1693 census was taken.^[12]. All but three of these children lived to adulthood, married and had families of their own, rsulting in 93 known grandchildren.

Marie lived a long life all in the same village, when she died on 29 NOV 1732; Port-Royal, Acadie^[13]

Research Notes

Karen Theriot Reader: Are the last two daughters, another Marie and another Marguerite, really hers? She would have been very old when they were born.

   Sometimes spelled GAUTROT (census 1671), GOTRO (censuses 1686, 1698), GOUTROT (census 1693). There is a second Marie GOTRO on the 1686 census, on the next page (next household?), married to Michel DUPEUSE [DUPUIS?]. Her age is 49, 9 years older than this Marie. This is probably the same sister Marie listed on the 1671 census as being married, age 35, but not living in Port Royal?

On p. 567 there is Marie GAUTEROT, born 1647, daughter of Francois & Edmee LEJEUNE, who married Claude TERRIOT, son of Jean & Perrine BOURG. But on p. 566, another Marie GAUTEROT, same parents and birthdate, is listed as married to Michel DUPUIS. [This is obviously a mistake by Arsenault. The Marie who married Michel DUPUIS was probably born in 1636, and is listed in her father's entry with that date. The other Marie has an additional name of Francoise, but is listed in father's entry as Marie, born 1647. This is the one that married Claude TERRIOT.]
