Daniel LeBlanc
1. Daniel LeBlanc was born in 1626 in Martaizé, Vienne, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France; died in 1696 in Port Royal, Annapolis County, Nova Scotia ; was buried in Garrison Graveyard, Annapolis Royal, Annapolis County, Nova Scotia. Notes:
According to the Acadians Project, he died in about 1696, in Port Royal, Acadie.
The following information came from a genealogical collection presented to Rene Leblanc and Florette Lacharite on their fiftieth anniversary in July 1987:
He came to Acadia in about 1645 and settled about 15 kilometers north of Port Royal. When Port Royal was taken by Phipps in 1690, Daniel was appointed member of the board responsible for administer of the colony, until the governor arrived. The name Le Blanc was written as two separate words until about 1800, when it was combined into one word.
Additional gathered information:
He was a farmer, and he married Francoise, who was a young widow, in c 1650. They settled on the north bank of the Port-Royal River (now the Annapolis River), to the northeast of the marsh at Belisle, about nine miles above the fort at Port Royal and about a half mile below the chapel of St-Laurent, where he died.
Daniel and Francoise had seven children together, including six sons, all born at Port Royal, five of whom created families of their own. After they took wives, the four older LeBlanc sons moved to the Minas area, where they created a large extended family. The youngest son remained on his father's lands near Port Royal. (According to family genealogist Lucie LeBlanc Constentino: "... as was the usual way for the Acadians, the youngest son inherited the father's land.")

4. Antoine Leblanc
(1.Daniel1) was born in 1662 in Port Royal, Annapolis County, Nova Scotia ; died in Grand Pré, Kings County, Nova Scotia; was buried in Saint-Charles-des-Mines, Grand Pré, Kings County, Nova Scotia. Notes:
The following information was provided by member "The Acadien #47535334":
Antoine LeBlanc was born circa 1661 in Port-Royal, Acadie (present-day Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia) during a brief period when the the French colony was under the control of British governor Thomas Temple.
Antoine died in Grand-Pré (according to the 'Déclarations de Belle-Île-en-Mer') — sometime between 1719 and 1730. He was still alive when his son Joseph married in 1719, but deceased 'sometime before July 20, 1730' — when his granddaughter was christened. Here's what's recorded in the Saint-Charles-des-Mines parish records for that date:
"In the year 1730, on the 20th of July, was baptized by the undersigned priest, Anasthasie, born the same day and year, daughter of René LeBlanc, (a son of the late Antoine LeBlanc) and Anne Térriot, his wife. ..."
It's presumed that Antoine was buried in the Saint-Charles-des-Mines parish cemetery — though there's no 'official' documentation to confirm this.
