♀Edmee Lejeune
Born about 1624.
Edmee Lejeune (born about 1624) was an early Acadian settler of Port-Royal, the second wife of Francois Gautrot. She was the seventh great-grandmother of Floyd Amatus Delahorne (1922–2014) by six separate lines of descent, through three of her children.
Port-Royal
Edmee, also recorded as Aimee, married Francois Gautrot, already a widower with two young children, at Port-Royal about 1644, according to Steven A. Cormier’s compiled history of the Acadians of Louisiana; a family tree gives 1643. Cormier makes her a sister of Catherine Lejeune, who married Francois Savoie. In his account Edmee bore Francois nine children, including three sons who went on to raise families of their own and four daughters who married into the Thériot, Labat dit Le Marquis, Girouard and Lanoue families; their daughter Marie was born about 1647. The 1671 census of Port-Royal lists Edmee, aged 47, with her husband, a farmer aged 58, and the children listed under them, five of them marked as married; the married daughters also appear in that census as wives in households of their own. The family was counted again in the 1686 census, when Edmee was 61. In the 1693 census she is listed as the widow of Francois Gotrot, aged 71, ten years above the 1686 figure.
Lines of descent
Six separate lines run from Edmee to Floyd, through three of her children: Claude, Marguerite and Marie Gautrot (born about 1647). Four reach Floyd through his mother, Ida Serrette, the nearest nine generations up through Claude; two, through Marie, reach him through his father, Jeffrey Delahorne, eleven generations up. Two of the four run through Marguerite, whose descent from Edmee rests on the ages in the censuses rather than on a register. The lines join again when Leonard Thibodeau married Madeleine Ordalie Cormier in St. Martin Parish on 16 December 1845, both of them her descendants, and in the marriage of Joseph Bourgeois and Marie Giroir, until both of Floyd’s parents descended from her.
Notes
The marriage date and the details of Edmee’s own family rest on Cormier’s compilation, not on a parish register. No record gives her death date; she was last recorded, alive and a widow, at the 1693 census.
