  1. 1.  Jacques Bourgeois was born in 1619 in France; died in 1701 in Port Royal, Annapolis County, Nova Scotia ; was buried in Garrison Graveyard, Annapolis Royal, Annapolis County, Nova Scotia.

    Notes:

    Jacques became a farmer and shipbuilder in Port Royal. He traded with Bostonians and learned English, enabling him to become an interpreter. Jacques and Jeanne were granted an island on the Dauphin River, named Ile aux Cochons. This was up the river from port-Royal.

    At the Capitulation of Port-Royal on 16 August 1654, Jacques was left as a hostage by his brother-in-law, Germain Doucet La Verdure. This was part of the terms of the capitulation.

    He sold part of his holdings in 1672, and settled in the Chignecto Basin, along with his two oldest sons and two of his sons-in-law. He became the founder of Beaubassin, by building a flour mill and a saw mill, encouraging more people to settle the area, which became very prosperous. This was called the Bourgeois colony.

    He returned to Port-Royal again before 1699, living there until his death in 1701.

    According to the Acadians Project, he died after 1671 in Port Royal.
