♀Jeanne Aucoin

Born 1630.

Jeanne Aucoin (born about 1630) was the wife of the Port-Royal farmer Francois Girouard and a member of the founding generation of French families in Acadia. She was the ninth great-grandmother of Floyd Amatus Delahorne (1922–2014) by three separate lines of descent, through two of her children, Jacques Girouard and Madeleine Girouard.

Jeanne was baptized at Sainte-Marguerite, La Rochelle, on 26 November 1630, the daughter of Martin Aucoin and Barbe Minguet; White’s dictionary of Acadian families gives her godparents as Arnaud Gyon and Jeanne Riou. No record of her marriage is known; she is known from the censuses of Port-Royal. The census of 1671 lists her as the wife of Francois Girouard, a farmer of 50, and gives her age as 40, which fits the baptism of 1630. The household then counted five children: Jacob, 23, Marie, 20, and Marie-Magdeleine, 17, all three already married, and the unmarried Germain, 14, and Anne, 12, with 16 cattle, 6 sheep and 8 arpents of land. The son listed as Jacob is Jacques Girouard, who married Marguerite Gautrot, a daughter of another early settler of Port-Royal. The census of 1686, as transcribed in Bona Arsenault’s 1955 compilation, still records “Francois Girouard, 65 ans, marié à Jeanne Aucoin”; her own age in that entry cannot be read in the copy consulted. The census of 1693, as transcribed, lists “Jean AUCOIN widow (of Francois GIROUARD) 60”, under the first name “Jean”, living with her son-in-law Julien Lord and his family; it makes her a widow by then and is the last record of her yet found. No record of her death is known.

Lines of descent

Three lines of descent to Floyd Amatus Delahorne run back to Francois Girouard and Jeanne Aucoin. Two of them run through their son Jacques Girouard and divide in the next generation, between Jacques’s sons Pierre Giroard and Guillaume Giroir. The third runs through their daughter Madeleine Girouard, born about 1654. The lines meet again when Leonard Thibodeau married Madeleine Ordalie Cormier on 16 December 1845 in St. Martin Parish, Louisiana, both descendants of Francois Girouard and Jeanne Aucoin; they were the grandparents of Floyd’s grandmother Amelia Pennison Daigle.
