♂Joseph Bourg

Born about 1742, Acadie. Died before 1772.

Also recorded as Charles Joseph Bourg.

Joseph Bourg (born about 1742 – died before 15 September 1772), also recorded as Charles Joseph Bourg, was an Acadian exile, born in Acadia, who married and died in France at Le Havre. He was the fifth great-grandfather of Floyd Amatus Delahorne (1922–2014), through his daughter Rose Adelaide Bourg (1765–1804).

Marriage at Le Havre

On 8 January 1765 Joseph Bourg, recorded as “Bourc”, married Rosalie Doiron in the parish of Notre-Dame at Le Havre. The register calls him twenty-two and a minor, the son of the late Charles Bourg and the late Marguerite Landry, “native of Acadia”, and her nineteen, the daughter of the late Paul Doiron and the late Marguerite Michel, also native of Acadia. Bride and groom were both orphans, and both had lived in the parish for only nine months. Neither could sign; each made a mark. (The clerk headed the page “January 1764”, but the volume is the register for 1765.)

Their daughter Rose Adelaide was born and baptized at Le Havre on 14 October 1765. The baptism names her father as Charles Joseph Bourg and notes that he was absent; the records do not say why.

Death

He died young. A roll of the Acadian families at Le Havre, dated 15 September 1772, lists “Rose Douaron, 23, widow of Joseph Bourg, lacemaker and dressmaker in linen”, with her six-year-old daughter. When that daughter married at Nantes in 1783, the register again called him “the late Joseph Bourg”. His widow and daughter were at Châtellerault in Poitou in 1775 and later reached Louisiana. No record of his death or burial has been found.
