♀Catherine LeJeune

Born about 1633.

Catherine LeJeune (born about 1633) was an Acadian woman of Port-Royal, the wife of François Savoie and the mother of at least nine children. She was the eighth great-grandmother of Floyd Amatus Delahorne (1922–2014) by four separate lines of descent, through three of her children.

François Savoie and Catherine LeJeune married at Port-Royal about 1651; a 1912 genealogy of the Savoie family gives the marriage as between 1651 and 1653. The census roll of 1671 records her as “Catherinne Le Jeune aagée de 38 ans”, wife of François Savoie, fifty, with a married daughter, Françoise, eighteen, and eight younger children, the youngest a girl of a year and a half. Her eldest daughter was born about 1653, when Catherine was about twenty. Nothing is known of her parents or her death.

Lines of descent

Four lines of descent run from Catherine LeJeune to Floyd Amatus Delahorne through three of her children: Andrée, Jeanne and Catherine Savoie, with two of the lines through Jeanne. All four pass through Ida Serrette (1903–1990), Floyd’s mother, so all fall on his mother’s side. The line through Andrée is ten generations up, the nearest; the lines through Jeanne and Catherine are eleven. The lines meet again in three places: Anne Doralie Thibodeau (1799–1855), whose parents Nicolas Thibodeaux and Éléonore Prejean both descend from her; Amelia Pennison Daigle (1869–1906), whose parents Melia Thibodeaux and Jean Baptiste Daigle both descend from her; and Leonard Thibodeau (1823–1857), whose parents Mathilde Valentine Landry and Placide Cyrille Thibodeaux both descend from her.
