Abt 1684 -

• Name	Anne dit Jeanne Bourg
  Born	Abt 1684	Port Royal
  Gender	Female
  Notes	Bona-vol.2,p.687-name,marr.info;daug of Bernard & Francoise Brun -vol.2,p.450-b.yrof 1678,spouse B31,p.223,1155 and E.p.49-Port Royal census of 1693 gives her as age 9 at Alexander;1698 census age 15;1700 census age 22;1701 census age 23;says she married Charles Melanson,son of Charles and marie Dugas. Gives her parents as Francois Bourg andMarguerite Boudrot as does Placide Gaudet(Genealogies acadiennes p.655)- I believe this is these are the accurate parents andnot Bernard. Note on page 49 of English Translation says"Some genealogists have said that Bernard Bourg's daughter (Anne dit) Jeanne married Charles Melanson. This identification is evidently based upon the ages attributed to her in the censuses; Bernard Bourg's daughter Jeanne and Charles Melanson's wife (Anne dit) Jeanne were both born about 1678. But if Charles Melanson's wife (Anne dit) Jeanne Bourg were really Bernard Bourg's daughter, then her son Pierre Melanson would havemarried his first cousin, Marie-Josephe Granger, whose mother was also BernardBourg's daughter(Marie). On the contrary, as the record of the marriage of Pierre Melanson and Marie-Josephe Granger, shows (Port Royal reg. 1 Feb 1746), the mothers of thisMelanson couple were only first cousins. Given that Marguerite Boudrot and Pierre LeBlanc's wife Madeleine Bourg appear among the godparents of Charles Melanson's children, it follows that it was (Anne dit) Jeanne the daughter of Francois Bourg and Marguerite Boudrot who married Charles Melanson. Jeanne Bourg, Bernard's daughter, thus married into the family of Claude Dugas, just as three of her sisters and one of her brothers did.Placide Gaudet apparently drew the same conclusion(Genealogies acadiennes p 655).
