A Canadian Family

A Canadian Family Through the Generations: Our Theriaults (Gen.6)

Our branch of the Acadian Theriaults was one of those that wandered as refugees from the old Acadie to the St-Jean River, then on to various Quebec locations such as Trois-Pistoles and Cap-St-Ignace. Our ancestors Victor Theriault and Julie Thibodeau eventually found a new home in Caraquet, New Brunswick where they became one of the earliest pioneer couples. This is information from the first generation in Gloucester County.
