Died in Port Royal

He married JEANNE Terriau 1660 in St-Jean Baptiste de Port Royal, Acadia, daughter of JEHAN THERIOT and PERRINE REAU. She was born 1643 in Port Royal, Acadia, and died December 08, 1726 in Port Royal, Acadia.

Pierre and Jeanne had at least eighteen children and 159 Grandchildren. Many found their way to Louisiana.

Children:
Marie 1660, Marie "l'ainee" 1661, Marie "la Cadette" 1662,
Marie Jeanne "la benjamine" 1664, Anne Marie "l'ainee" 1665,
Catherine Marie 1667, Pierre "l'ainee" 1670, Jeanne 1672, Jean Pierre 1673, Antoine 1674, Pierre "le cadet" 1676, Michel 1678, Cecile 1680, Anne Marie Louise "Anne Marie la cadette" 1682, Catherine Josephte 1686, Claude 1684, Pierre LeJeune, Joseph 1691, Charles 1694
Pierre died on December 26, 1704 at his home in Port Royal, Acadia. Pierre's funeral records states: "Citizen and miller at the top of the Port Royal River and at the place called Pree' Rounde. He received the Last Sacraments and was buried the 27th of the said month of this year (December 1704), in the cemetary of this parish, with ordinary ceremonies. It was signed by padre Justin Durand, recollect and cure' of Port Royal."

His wife Jehanne Terriau, died 22 years later on December 8, 1726. Michel and Antoine, their sons, stayed at the grave until the day after her death, with the cure' of Breslay. One more time, the entire colony of Pree' Ronde had the burden of transporting the body to Port Royal in snow and cold of December, and one can imagine the emotion at the long family funeral procession.

In 1981, a monument was erected by the Nova Scotia Museum director J.L. Martin, who furnished the plaque, and by the joing efforts of the Historical Association of Annapolis Royal, and La Societe Historique Acadienne de la Baie Sainte-Marie, honoring our ancestor Pierre Thibodeau.
