Notes:

The official record of our family in the New World currently starts with the 1671 census of Port Royal, Acadia where found listed are Roger, age "35"; Marie, age "25"; and their first child Marie, age 2. The quotes are added since you will see how the ages of Roger and Marie (as well as everyone else) varies throughout the records. The origins of Roger Kuessy are currently shrouded in mystery as no earlier record of Roger prior to 1671 are known to exist. However, later records show he stated he was of Irish origin. Bona Arsenault, in his book "History of the Acadians" states: "Roger Kuessy (Caissy and Quessy), an Irishman captured by the English, wound up in Acadia around 1665 where he started that family tree."

Germain Doucet came to Nova Scotia in approximately 1632 with his two eldest children. His wife (or wives) are unidentified. While there has been much speculation as to a possible Native American wife for Germain, this seems doubtful; mtDNA analysis on matrilineal descendants of his daughter, Marguerite Louise, confirm her as Haplogroup T2, which is a characteristically European mtDNA signature. While speculation continues that Germain
