Joseph Nicolas Hebert was born in Acadie in 1753, a son of Pierre Hebert and Magdeleine Daigre.[2] They were evidently deported to Virginia in 1755, and sent from there to England the following spring. When the war ended and they were freed, he was age ten with his parents on the "numbered list of 219 French Neutrals delivered by Edw. Noble to Sieur De La Rochette at Southampton, England, dated 16 May 1763. Later the same day, they were on the French list, "Rolle des Acadien[s] Embarque a Southamton" on board the royal corvette L'Ambition, Captain Brunau De La Salle, dated 16 May 1763, containing forty numbered households of Acadian families being released by the English and turned over to France.[3]
He grew up in France, and when the opportunity arose, he chose to immigrate to Spanish Louisiana. In 1785 he was referred to as the nephew of Blaise Thibodeau on the ship list when he immigrated to Louisiana with Blaise, his maternal uncle by marriage.[1] On 10 September 1785 he debarked in New Orleans from the French ship le Saint Remi, chartered by Spain to carry settlers to Louisiana. He was thirty-one years old and a woodworker.[4] On 16 September 1785, in New Orleans, he asked for the daily subsistence of two reals.[5]
On 6 May 1786, in present-day Donaldsonville, he married Anne Agnes Gautrot, recorded at the Catholic Church in Ascension.[6]
He was age 34 on the census dated 1 January 1789 in Lafourche, Louisiana, with his wife Agnes Gautereau, age 33, on six arpents of land.[7] He was age 42 and his wife age 40 on the census of Lafourche dated 1795 of Valenzuela, Louisiana.[8]
Nicolas was around age 57, his wife Anne Agnes GAUTROT about 56 in 1810 when the census was taken in Assumption, Louisiana.[9]
He was buried at Plattenville, Louisiana on 26 August 1818, reported to be 72 years old, but really about 65.[2]
