Pierre Arseneault, I - Parents

I've removed the relationship and made a curator note.

Note that there were two other siblings of Pierre listed under Abraham Arseneault, Claude Dugas & Françoise Arseneault. These were added by Murielle Cyr & Marianne Lyons Dagher. So this should get further investigation as there seems to be a family unit build around Abraham.

I'll note that I have seen similar marriage relationship. My 3rd GGF from Quebec married his step-sister.

Did anybody ever quite figure this out. I am trying to find the data sheet I had on this still. If anyone has better, or actually more accurate info on any profiles I enter, please make edits, only make sure it is accurate :-)

I haven't had time to research it any further myself.

As for Abraham Arseneault...

I Googled his name with his wife's name, and found out of about 10 family trees, only one had undocumented set of parents for him. He ALSO seems to be a progenitor of his lineage in the Americas.

http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/w/o/s/Ken-Wosnig/WEBSITE... This tree starts with him

http://www.ourfamtree.org/browse.cfm/Abraham-Arsenault/p441348 This tree starts with him

http://pellelarchgen.com/d0011/g0000025.html This tree starts with him

http://freepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~kmills/narrative/b22.html#P294 This tree has parents, but is not documented and not done well, says he died in Los Angeles, California! LOL

http://genforum.genealogy.com/arsenault/messages/1592.html This discussion is asking if he has any known ancestors

http://myweb.unomaha.edu/~michaelmatthews/Hubbard_Morisseau_Book_Pr... This tree starts with him.

So, I think we're safe in removing ancestry from him and adding a curator note on top, Jeff. :)

Interestingly, about Claude Arseneault. When I googled his name and birth/death dates as I have here: https://www.google.com/search?q=claude+arseneault+1652+1732&aq=... All I get with the exact info comes from Geni.com. I get nothing for him.

There is a Claude Dugas on Geni and other websites with the same birth and death date. He's also listed as a half brother of Claude Arseneault. Hmmm? :)

I also don't think she was married to Pierre Lejeune dit Briard as it says here. She and Abraham lived into their 80's, I don't believe there is room for another husband here. Can someone disconnect him?

I just cut her loose from Pierre Lejeune dit Briard. He may have been married to a Doucet, but it wasn't this one.

Hello Everyone, can this French Acadian site help out here? Records show that Her full name was Marguerite Louise Doucet & it lists her parents. She married Abraham Arsenau 1st & had one son: Pierre Arsenau. Then she married Abraham Dugas & had 8 children with him. Please ck this French Acadian site: http://www.genealogie-acadienne.net/?action=indiDetails&I=1558 Maybe Leandre Maillet, who runs it can help?

Pardon, I spelled it wrong...on Acadian site his name is spelled Arseneau, Abarham (1625 - 1662) I250680

I have just found out that Pierre Arceneau and Marie Guerin were my 8th or 9th grand-parents on my fathers' mothers mothers side.

I am trying to add wife of Arsenault (father of Pierre Arsenault, I) but it is locked.

Yes, that is intentional - his parents are unknown. I've removed the father.

Jeff,
So the information on this website is inaccurate? http://hall-of-acadie.org/familychart.php?personID=I91665616&tr...

The best information I have is that the PRDH does not list the parents of his union. There is no documentation to support it. Is it accurate? We don't know - it's someone's guess. Maybe DNA will prove it out.

Here is a pretty reliable site. He compile and sells DVD of Acadia genealogy. If there was a link, he'd list it.
