Biography

Pierre Part migrated from France to Acadia.

Pierre Part dit LaForest was born about 1685, at Moulins or Mouzens, near Tulle, France. He was son of Pierre & Catherine PIOUSSET, of the parish of Moulin, diocese of Tulle, France. (Note: Should this be Limousin, near Tulle, France?) He was a soldier at the Port Royal garrison. ^[1] He married there on 3 Feb 1707 to Jeanne Dugast, daughter of Claude Dugast and the late Françoise Bourgeois.^{[2][3] [4]}

Note re place of origin in France: It has been suggested that this might be referring to Mouzens, but that is just east of Toulouse and several hundred kilometres south of Tulle; it is noted that there is also town of Moulins, about 200km northeast of Tulle (in what was the province of Bourbonnais). Research is required to confirm.

Occupation: Soldier; blacksmith, Port Royal, Acadia. ^[1]
