Biography

Françoise was born about 1739 in Acadie. She was the daughter of Joseph Robichaud and Claire LeBlanc.

When Françoise was about 20 years of age, she and her family were deported from Isle Saint-Jean (present-day Prince Edward Island) to France in 1758. [1] "They settled in the tiny village of Pleudihen on the outskirts of Saint-Servan and, like other Acadian families, were supported for some years by the French government. But they had difficulty adapting to their new life and dreamed of returning home."[2]

Françoise, like her brothers, made her way back to the homeland. [2]

She married Pierre Dugas in Carleton, on April 15, 1776. [3][4]
