♂Jean Hébert

Born about 1658.

Jean Hébert (born about 1658) was a man of the Acadian colony. He was the seventh great-grandfather of Floyd Amatus Delahorne (1922–2014), through his daughter Anne Hébert.

The parents were Étienne Hébert (died 1671) and Marie Gaudet (born 1633). He was one of their children, and his birth year is an estimate drawn from the Census of Acadia returns of 1671, 1686 and 1693.

In the 1671 census of Port-Royal, Acadie, he is probably the Jean, aged 13, listed in the household of his widowed mother, Marie Gaudet.

Notes

1671 census of Port-Royal

The census of Port-Royal for 1671 lists Marie Gaudet as a widow, with a son Jehan aged 13. The bio of Marie Gaudet gives the full entry. The identification of this Jehan as Jean Hébert, and the household’s place at Port-Royal, come from a compiled genealogy; his age agrees with a birth about 1658.
