  	The Bourgeois book by Paul-Pierre Bourgeois, page 72, states that Germain ``d 1711, Port Royal, en prison comme hôtage du serment d'àllégence (61a)``. This translates into something like: he died in prison as a hostage for the oath of allegiance. White's dictionnaire gives Germain's death as appearing in the Port Royal parish register in 1711, "durant la captivité de Père Durand à Boston" which translates to 'during the cpativity of Father Durand at Boston'.

"-- --- 1696: According to Charlevoix, a man named Bourgeois presented himself to Major Benjamin Church, stationed before Beaubassin, and delivered him a written undertaking by which all the inhabitants of Beaubassin had bound themselvves at the time of Phips' conquest of Acadia to remain faithful to King William and had been taken under his protection. Several historians, following Rameau de Saint-Père, have claimed that this Bourgeois was old Jacob. This is a mistake; Major Church mentions twice in his journal that this Bourgeois was Germain and not Jacob."
