Judith Poitevin, whose fate I wrote about in my post on the Fouquets, was born on March 14 and baptized on April 19, 1710, in Port-Royal, Acadia. She was the daughter of Étienne Poitevin dit Parisien and Anne Daigre [or Daigle].

Before her birth, Judith’s family was listed on the 1698 Census for Port-Royal. Her father is then 25 years, plowman, her mother, 20, and her older sister Madeleine, 1 year old.

Judith probably moved to Havre Saint-Pierre on Isle Saint-Jean with her family around or before 1724 since her sister Élisabeth baptismal and burial records are in the Saint-Pierre-du-Nord register for July 1724.

Judith married Charles Fouquet at age 14, in Saint-Pierre-du-Nord, on Isle Saint-Jean on September 10, 1724.

Was Judith’s father from Poitou in France or from Paris? His dit name is Parisien (i.e. from Paris), but the 1734 Census mentioned that he was born in Poitou.

Judith lost her father in 1742. According to author Stephen White, her mother Anne Daigre was most likely lost at sea on the Violet while deported to France.

And as we already know, Judith lost her life on February 17, 1759, shortly after her arrival in Saint-Malo.
