Research Notes

Denis Jean offers the proposition that Francois Julien is perhaps the great-grandson of Philppe Énault de Barbaucannes et une Amérindienne.[1]
Nos Racines has an entry for Philppe Énault de Barbaucannes et une Amérindienne, including a list of four children; a son, two daughters, and another son. [3]
John Julian or John Julien (ca. 1720-1805) was a leader of the Micmac or Mi'kmaq people of New Brunswick. In 1779 he, his brother, Francis, and other native leaders signed a treaty with Michael Franklin, superintendent of Indian Affairs for Nova Scotia, agreeing to support the British in their struggles with American Revolutionaries.[4][5]
A collection of documents related to Indian affairs in the territory of New Brunswick. Many mention of the Julian family, and to "Francis" specifically.[6]
