Notes:

As a young man, Francois travelled back to his ancestors' homeland of France. Although the reason for this is not crystal clear, Francois was a mariner so perhaps his work brought him there. Once there, Francois met the woman he was destined to marry. His bride Marie-Marguerite HENRYand her family were Acadian exiles living in France.
According to Paul-Yvon BELLIVEAU, a Parish Priest in present-day Gatineau, Quebec, the question concerning the true reason for the expulsion of the Acadians from Acadie in 1755 remains a very controversial issue. The Treaty of Utrecht in 1713 madeall of eastern Canada a British Colony and all residents were considered British subjects. Some claim the expulsion to have been strictly a religious question wherein the English demanded allegiance to the Throne of England, which wasof course of theAnglican Faith. The Acadians, being of the Roman Catholic Faith, couldnot swear this kind of allegiance without renouncing their obedience to the authority of the Pope. The Acadians were, however, assured by their priest that swearing allegiancetothe Throne of England was a noble and virtuous patriotic gesture and would not interfere with their continued practice of the Roman Catholic Faith. Many Acadians did in fact give their allegiance to the Throne of England but were exiled nonetheless. Apparently the Acadians were in possession of the most fertile landsin central Nova Scotia. The swearing allegiance to the Throne of England became a poor excuse to get the Acadians off these fertile lands sothe England could take possessionof them.
In any event, Francois and Marie appear to have settled in the LeHavre area after their wedding to begin their family. They seem to have had three sons. Francois and his family occupied farm No. 20 at the Ligne Acadienne in Poitou Province,France,in 1774.
In 1785, Spain extended a Land Grant to Acadian exiles. The Spanish owned the land of what is present-day Louisiana in the United States. Francois and Marie decided to take them up on the offer and moved their young family across the Atlantic. Theydeparted from France on 11 Jun 1785 and arrived on 19 August 1785 onboard "Le Beaumont," a 180-ton merchantvessel chartered by the Spanish government for the exclusive privilegeof transporting Acadian exiles from France to Louisiana and captainedbyOliver DANIEL.
The young family immigrated to New Orleans and then two weeks later, travelled up the Mississippi River to their portion of the land grant at the settlement of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In September 1785, Francois took possession of his virgin forestland which was located on the West bank of the Mississippi, two and a half leagues (about six and a half miles) above a point opposite the fort at Baton Rouge, where they established their own branch of the ARBOUR Family. Today thereare many Cajuncousins, descendants of Francois and Marie.
Francois was only 47-years old when he died at his homestead in Baton Rouge in 1790, after a long and serious illness under the care of Dr. Michel MAHIER. Due to his illness, Francois had little time after his arrival and must have worked hard to clear his land and establish a farm. He had no more than four active years - or less even - in which he built a levee, cleared and fenced a fair portion of land, built two houses,and accumulated the possessions listed in the inventoryof his estateafter his death. The inventory includes oxen, cows, calves, a heifer, a bull, a mare and colt, a sow,hogs, a cart with leather straps for oxen, tools, a hand mill for rice, and some other items, altogether appraisedat 179 pesos, 4 reales. The "lastthe habitation on which said deceaseddied, of sixarpents front on which there is a good levee, twenty arpents cleared and twelve with fences of the French and English style, two cabins and good land with many cypress trees" was appraised at 200pesosand actually totaled 263 arpents.
On 4 July 1792, Marie took her own personal items and then an auction was held to sell off everything else to pay the family debt, including medical expenses and the loss of the 1790 and 1791 crops.The auction brought 366 pesos, 7 reales, and all but 58 pesos were used to pay the debts. The remainder was divided between Marie and their three sons. Marie's whereabout after this are unknown.

Notes:

When he was 15-years old, Firmin immigrated to the United States of America with his parents and settled in the State of Louisiana. Firmin andhis wife Rosalie settled in St James, where they had seven children, three daughters and four sons. The family was not listed in St James Parish in 1810 Census. What happened to them? Perhaps something tragic happened, such as Rosalie and all the childrendied, as no further sign of them has ever been found. Firmin possibly lived with hisbrother Frederic and family in 1810. Firmin is believed to have remarried in 1812. A Firmin ARBOUR married SusannaGLOVER on 1 July 1812 at St Joseph's in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Notes:

a young man, Francois worked as a mariner, like his father. When he was18-years old, Francois immigrated to the United States of America withhis parents and settled in the State of Louisiana. Francois and his wife Jeanne had nine children, six daughters and three sons. By 1810, thefamily lived in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where they contributed to the immense growth of the community. In 1810, the town filled only six pages in the Census rolls, but by 1820, had grown to 24 pages. Francois andJeanne lived there in 1810 with three of their daughters, as the others seem to have died by then. In fact, none of their sons lived until adulthood and the ARBOUR name ended with Francois on this line. In December 1810, the family lived next door toFrancois DAIGLE, probably Jeanne's father. A Private Fr. ARBOUR fought with the 8th Regiment (Meriam's Regiment), Louisiana Military, during the War of 1812. There were no other Francis/Francois ARBOURs alive at this time so one may conclude it wasthis Francois who fought for his home and that he died after 1812. However, speculation exists that Fr. could actually stand for Frederickso no conclusions can be made. It is unclear when or where Francois andJeanne passed away. Jeanne was alive during the Census taken in December 1810, so she died some time after this. Furthermore, there is a Francois ARBOUR listed in Baton Rouge in the 1830 Census and in the 1840 Census. He is probably also ourFrancois.

Notes:

When he was 13-years old, Frederic immigrated to the United States of America with his parents and settled in the State of Louisiana. After their wedding, Frederic and Rose settled in Baton Rouge, where they had five children, three daughters and two sons. Frederic's name appears in the records of Spanish West Florida as a property holder in 1800, in 1801, and in 1811, as well as a merchant in Baton Rouge in 1808. The family was confirmed to have still lived there in 1810. That year, the young family had several other people living in their home, probably Frederic's brother Firmin plus others. They also owned one slave. On 7 September 1812, Frederic sold a parcel of his land to a fellow by the name ofHypollite TIVOLLIER. The propertywas located at the edge of his land, adjacent to that of his brother John's. The land measured just over 22'by 55' and was sold for $433, quite a nice sum in those days.

APPENDICES
Acadians Who Found Refuge in Louisiana, Feb 1764-early 1800s
ARBOUR [ar- BORE]
ACADIA
Two unrelated families, using the surnames Harbour and Arbour, are associated with greater Acadia:
1) Michel, fils, son of Michel Harbour, père, and Marie Constantineau, born at Petite-Rivière-St-Charles, Québec, in c1674, married Barbe, daughter of Acadians Pierre Morin and Francoise Chiasson,in c1700. They had nine children, including eight soà 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»ns who created families of their own. However, these Harbours were born and raised in various communities along the St Lawrence River, not in Acadia.
2) Pierre Arbour dit Carrica, born at Bayonne, France, in c1700, married Susanne Moreau probably in c1721. They settled at St-Pierre-du-Nord on Île St-Jean, today's Prince Edward Island, and were among the first Acadians to settle there. Pierre andso à 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»Susanne had four daughters and at least three sons: Michel, born probably at St-Pierre-du-Nord in c1724, Mathurin in c1725, Dominique in c1727, Isabelle in c1730, Susanne in April 1732, Marguerite in c1734, and Marie-Thérèse in c1736.Mathurin marrio à 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»ed into the Archambault family at Pointe-aux-Trembles, Montréal, in Jul 1748, so the family may have moved to the St Lawrence valley.Dominique married into the Pelletier family at L'Assomption, between Montréal and Québec, in Aug 1755. Two of Pier à 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»re dit Carrica's daughters married into the Savoie and Turenne families. Pierre dit Carrica and Susanne may have had a fourth son,Francois, who married Thérèse Descoteaux probably at Québec in the early 1740s. Francois and Thérèse may have moved t? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»o Île St-Jean in the late 1740s or early 1750s.
LE GRAND DÉRANGEMENT
Living in territory controlled by France, the Acadians on Île St-Jean escaped the British deportations in Nova Scotia in the fall of 1755. Their respite from British oppression was short-lived, however. After the fall of the French fortressat Louised t? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab»«tab»bourg in Jul 1758, the victorious British rounded up most of the Acadians on the island and deported them to France later in the year. Francois, fils, son of Francois Arbour, père and Thérèse Descoteaux andperhaps a grandson of PierreArbour dit Ca t? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»rricas of Île St-Jean, was born at Québec in c1743 and may have returned with his parents to Île St-Jean. As a 15-year-old, he may have been one of the Île St-Jean deportees of 1758, along with younger brothers or cousinsGuillaume Arbour, born in ct? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»1749, and Chrysostôme Arbour, born in c1750. The British deported the Arbours to Cherbourg in Normandy, where Chrysostôme died inDec 1758, probably from the rigors of the voyage; he was only 8 years old. Guillaume died in Jan 1759; he was only 10 ct? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»years old. The more robust Francois survived the terrible crossing. In France, Francois,fils made his living as a caulker. By c1763, he was in Le Havre, where he married Marie, daughter of Acadian JosephHenry, in Nov 1765; the priest who recorded his marriage noted that both of Francois's parents were deceased at the time of the wedding and that he had resided at Le Havre for a year and a half. Francois, fils and Marie had at least five children in France, all sons, the first three born probably at Le Havre: Francois-Henry in c1767, Jean-Louis-Firmin, called Louis, in c1770,and Frédéric-Edouard in c1772. In the early 1770s, Francois, Marie, and their three sons became part of the Leigne-les-bois settlement in the Poitou region, a fa ct? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»iled attempt by French authorities to settle Acadians on land owned by a nobleman. Francois and Marie had another son, Louis-Nicolas, at Archigny, Poitou, in Jun 1774. Despite the failureof theventure and the retreat of most of the Poitou Acadiansto Nantes in late 1775 and early 1776, Francoisand Marie remained at Archigny, where yet another son, Louis-Joseph, was baptized in Jun 1778. Louis-Nicolas died at Archigny, age9, in Dec 1782. BySep 1784, Francois and his family had joined the Acadians in the port city of Nantes, where they survivedas best they could on work he could find and on government handouts. Youngest son Louis-Joseph probably died at Nantes in late 1784 or early 1785. By 1785, many Acadians like Francois, fils weredone with life in the mother country. When the Spanish government offered the Acadians inFrance the chance for a new life in faraway Louisiana, Francois Arbour,fils and his family agreed to take it.
LOUISIANA: RIVER SETTLEMENTS
Francois Arbour, now 45, wife Marie, 40, and their three older sons--Francois-Henry, 18, Louis, 15, and Frédéric, 13--sailed to Louisiana aboard Le Beaumont, the third of the Seven Ships from France, and arrived at New Orleans in Aug 1785.After a bct? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»rief respite in the city, they settled at Baton Rouge, on the riverabove New Orleans, with the majority of the passengers from their ship. Francoisand Marie had no more children in Louisiana. The marriage record of Francois's oldestson, Francois-Henry, dated 27 Sep 1790, noted that the groom's father was deceased, so Francois, père died probably atBaton Rouge in the late 1780s, in his late 40s. All three of his sons created families of their own, butonly one of them,the youngest, seems tob ct? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»have perpetuated this line of the family successfully.
Descendants of Francois-Henry ARBOUR (1767-?)
Francois-Henry, eldest son of Francois Arbour and Marie Henry, was bornat Le Havre, France, in c1767 and followed his parents and siblings toLouisiana aboard Le Beaumont, the third of the Seven Ships, in 1785. He married Marie-Jeanne-Jacqueline, called Jeanne, daughter of fellow Acadian Francois Daigle, at St-Gabriel in Sep 1790. Jeanne also had come to Louisiana aboard Le Beaumont. They settled at Baton Rouge, where their children were born. Their daughters married into the Altazin and Lerry families.
1 Oldest son Francois-Alexandre, born in c1792, died at age 2 in Aug 1794.
2 Charles-Francois, called Francois, born in c1800 and baptized at the Baton Rouge church at age 2 in Oct 1802, may have married Marie Aurore,called Aurore, Leroi or Roy, place and date unrecorded. Their son Francois Bonicase was born near Grand Coteau, St Landry Parish, in Mar 1842.
3 Youngest son Jean Pierre died at Baton Rouge, age unrecorded, in Apr 1806.
Descendants of Jean-Louis-Firmin ARBOUR (1770-?)
Jean-Louis-Firmin, called Louis and sometimes Firmin, second son of Francois Arbour and Marie Henry, was born at Le Havre, France, in c1770 and followed his parents and siblings to Louisiana aboard Le Beaumont, the third of the Seven Ships, in 1785. He married Rosalie, daughter of fellow Acadian Michel Poirier of St-Jacques, in Apr 1793. Rosalie was a native of Louisiana. They settled at St-Jacques, now St James Parish, where their children were born. Their daughter married intothe Legendre family. Jean-Louis-Firmin remarried to Susanna, daughter of Anglo-American George Glover, at the BatonRouge church, East Baton Rouge Parish, inJul 1812. None of his sons seem to have created families of their own,so his line ofthe family, except for its blood, died with him.
1 Oldest son Jean-Pierre, by his first wife, born at St-Jacques in c1794, died at age 12 in Nov 1806.
2 Louis-Evariste, born at St-Jacques in Jan 1801, probably never married.
3 Achilles, born at St-Jacques in Feb 1803, probably never married.
4 A son died at St-Jacques in Sep 1806.
5 An infant, perhaps a son, name and age unrecorded, died at St-Jacquesin Dec 1806.
Descendants of Frédéric-Edouard ARBOUR (1772-1848)
Frédéric-Edouard, third son of Francois Arbour and Marie Henry, was born at Le Havre, France, in c1772 and followed his parents and siblings to Louisiana aboard Le Beaumont, the third of the Seven Ships, in 1785. He married cousin Marie-Rose, callect? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»d Rose, daughter of Jean Henry, at Baton Rouge in Sep 1798. Marie-Rose had come to Louisiana aboard La Ville d'Archangel. They remained atBaton Rouge, where their children were born. Their daughters marriedinto the Delahay and Guerryfamilies. Frée ct? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»déric died at Baton Rouge in Mar 1848; the priest who recordedhis burial said that Frédéric was80 years old, but he was 76. The great majority of the Arbours of SouthLouisiana are descended from his older son, who fathered at least half a dozen sct? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»ons and became a wealthy planter in East Baton Rouge Parish
1 Older son Frédéric, fils, born in Dec 1803, married Marie Adeline, called Adeline, daughter of fellow Acadian Jean Baptiste Daigle, at the Baton Rouge church, East Baton Rouge Parish, in Jul 1825.

Frédéric, fils died near Baton Rouge in Dec 1866; the priest who recorded his burial said that Frédéric was 75 years old, but he was "only" 63.
1a Joseph married Julie, daughter of Charles Maurin or Morin, at the Baton Rouge church in Dec 1851. Their son Joseph, fils was born near Baton Rouge in Aug 1859 but died at age 16 months in Dec 1860, Joseph Charles was born in Dec 1861, andHenri Antoine in Feb 1867.
1b Frédéric III married Ludoviska or Lodoiska Josephine Marie D'Lahay or De Lahay, probably at Baton Rouge in the early 1850s. Their son Joseph André Victor Frédéric was born near Baton Rouge inFeb 1853, and Adolphe Joseph in Jul 1858. During the W? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»ar Between the States, Frédéric served as a lieutenant in Company D of the 27th Regiment Louisiana Infantry, a front-line unit raised in Iberville Parish that fought gallantly at Vicksburg, Mississippi.
1c Bienvenu married cousin Célestine, daughter of Eloi Martinez, at theBaton Rouge church in Feb 1854; they had to secure a dispensation for third degree of consanguinity in order to marry. Their son George Edward was born near Baton Rougein Jun 1he W? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab»«tab»857. During the War Between the States, along with younger brother Octave, Bienvenu served in Company A of Miles' Legion Louisiana Infantry, a front-line unit raised in Orleans Parish that fought in Mississippi and Louisiana.
1d Ernest married Emma, daughter of André D'Lahay or De Lahay, at the Baton Rouge church in Oct 1854. Their son William Ernest was born near Baton Rouge in Feb 1860.
1e Octave married Caroline or Carrie Gayle, probably at Baton Rouge in the late 1850s. Their son William Roland was born near Baton Rouge in Dec 1861. During the War Between the States, Octave servedas corporal and fifth sergeant in Company A of Miles' Legion Louisiana Infantry, a front-line unit raised in Orleans Parish that fought in Mississippi and Louisiana; when the Miles' Legion was disbanded, he served as a sergeantin Company I of Ogden's Regiment Louisiana Cavalry, which also foughtin Louisiana and Mississippi, and, at the end of the war, surrendered inAlabama.

NON-ACADIAN FAMILIES in LOUISIANA
The Arbours of Baton Rouge, themselves, may not have been Acadians but French Canadians. Francois Arbour, fils was born in Québec, not GreaterAcadia, and, despite his having lived amongst Acadian exiles in Franceand married an Acadian exile thereheW? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab»«tab», his link to Greater Acadia is a tenuous one based on suppositions. After immigrating from France, Francois, fils and his family settled in the BatonRouge area, and there his descendants remained. Interestingly, a number of families with a similarsurname, Harbour, definitely not Acadian, also settled in South Louisiana. Judging from the the number of slaves they held in the decades before the War Between the States,some of them were as wealthy as the Acadian Arbours ofEast Baton RougeParish:
Adonegy or Adonager Harbour married Anna Dalton or Queremos. Their daughter Anna married Anglo-American John Harelson of Virginia at Baton Rouge in September 1806. Their daughter Sally married Anglo-American LouisGardner at Baton Rouge in Jan 1806.Adonager probably was Anglo-American himself.
In Jul 1850, P. H. Harbour held 11 slaves on his Ascension Parish farm.Ten years later, in Jun 1860, he held 9 slaves on his farm in Ascension's Seventh Ward.
In Aug 1850, Pleasant J. Harbour owned 47 slaves on his Pointe Coupee Parish plantation, and 34 slaves on his East Feliciana Plantation, northeast of Baton Rouge.
At the same time, John A. Harbour held 47 slaves on his East Feliciana Parish plantation.
In Jun 1860, Wm. H. Harbour owned 7 slaves on his Pointe Coupee Parish farm.
In Aug 1860, B. T. Harbour owned 8 slaves on his East Baton Rouge Parish farm.
CONCLUSION
Pierre Arbour dit Carrica of Bayonne, France, married Susanne Moreau and settled at St-Pierre-du-Nord, Île St-Jean, today's Prince Edward Island, in the early 1720s. The Arbours were among the firstEuropean settlers on the island. Francois,fils, sohe W? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab»«tab»n of Francois Arbour, père and Thérèse Descoteaux and perhaps a grandson of Pierre dit Carrica, was born at Québec in c1743 and may haveended up on Île St-Jean, from which the British may have deported himtoCherbourg, France,in 1758--the records? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»are uncertain, even about his Acadian identity. What is certain is that he came of age in France. At Le Havre, he married Marie, daughter of Acadian Joseph Henry, in Nov1765. They had five sons, two of whomdied young, and endured life in the mother country for 20 years. In 1785, they took three of their teenage sons to Louisiana aboard one of the Seven Ships from France and settled in the Baton Rouge area, whereallthree sons married Acadians. Only one ofFrancois, fils' sons, the youngest, seems to have perpetuated his line of the family. The great majority of Arbours in South Louisiana are descended from Francois, fils' grandson, Frédéric, fils, born atBaton Rouge in Dec 1803,who marriedAcadian Adeline Daigle at Baton Rouge in Jurds? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»l 1825. He and his wife had at least six sons, most of whom created families of their own in the Baton Rouge area. In the decades beforethe WarBetween the States, Frédéric, fils and his sons became successful planters. In 1850, Frédéric, fils ownes? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»d 30 slaves in East Baton Rouge Parish. A decade later, he held 56 slaves on two plantationsin East Baton Rouge and Iberville parishes. He and his sons, then, participated directly in theSouth's plantation economy. At least four Arbours, three ofthem sons of Frédéric, fils, served Louisiana in uniform during the War Between the States, one ofthem as an officer. Frédéric III, a resident of East Baton Rouge Parish, married, and the father ofseveral children, enlisted as a second lieutenantins? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»Company D of the 27th Regiment Louisiana Infantry,a front-line unit raised in Iberville Parish, in Mar 1862. He was promoted to first lieutenant the following Jun andfoughtwith his unit at Vicksburg, Mississippi, in 1862-63. After the Confederatesurrender at Vicksburg in Jul 1863, Frédéric, alongwiththousands of other Southerners, was sent home on a parole of honor. In Sep 1862, Frédéric III's younger brother Bienvenu, who also was married, enlisted at Baton Rouge in Company A of Miles'Les? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»gion Louisiana Infantry,afront-line unit raised in Orleans Parish that containeda number of soldiers from Baton Rouge. Miles' Legion served in Louisianaand was part of the Siege of Port Hudson in thespring and summer of 1863. Bienvenu missed thesiege, however. Hewas capturedat the Comite River, north of Baton Rouge, in early May 1863 and held by the Federals at Mobile, Alabama, until they paroled him at Grant's Island, near Mobile, at the end of May. Brother Octave alsoserved in CompanyAof the Miles' Legion Infantry, but his service with the unit was more praiseworthy. He, too, was married when he enlisted in CompanyA atBaton Rouge in Sep 1862. He was promoted to corporal a few weeks later, and then to fifth sergeant in Mar1863.After the disastroussurrender at Port Hudson in Jul 1863, members of Company A of the Miles' Legion served in Company I ofOgden's Regiment Louisiana Cavalry, Octave Arbour among them. He remained a sergeant and surrendered with his unit at Gainesville, Alabama, inMay1865. ArthurArbour, a young lawyer from Baton Rouge, alsoserved the Southern Confederacy in uniform,but his relationship to the Arbour brothers is not revealed in the church and civil records. In Jun 1861, at age 20, Arthur enlisted in Company Bof the 7thRegiment Louisiana Infantry, a front-line unit raised in East Baton Rouge Parish that fought gallantly in Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. Arthur followed his company to Virginia, but his service there wascut short byillness or injury. He wassent to a Richmond hospital in Oct 1861, and received a medical discharge the following month. He probably returned to Baton Rouge. The War took a terrible toll on the Arbour family's economic standing.After Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation went into effect in Jan 1863, Federal forces controlling the lower Mississippi freed the slaves onevery plantation their forces could reach. This included the Arbour holdings in East Baton Rouge and Iberville parishes. Union navy gunboats shelledand burned dozens of plantations houses along the lower river. Afterthe War, the Arbours of Baton Rouge had to endure as best they could a free-labor postwar Southern economy. Dozens of Arbours can be foundtodayintheBaton Rouge area,most ofthem descendants of Frédéric the planter. The family's namealso is spelled Arbot,Arboure, Arbourg, Arboux, Hambourg, Harbourg, Harbourgh.

See also Voorhies, J.,SomeLate EighteenthCentury Louisianians, 505, 526.
If he was an Acadian, why was he born in Québec? Was his father anotherson of Pierre ARBOUR dit Carrica, an early settler of Île St-Jean? Arsenault, Généalogie, 2055, does not list him with the children of Pierredit Carrica. Was Francois deporteds?20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»to France from Île St-Jean in 1758-59? He would have been 15 years old at the time of that deportation. If he was born in Québec, what compelledhim to go to Île St-Jean? Had his parents died in Canada, & he wentto the island to be reunited with hids? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»s kin, or did he follow his parents from the St Lawrence valley back to the island? His connection to Greater Acadia is based on prettythin stuff here. He may simply have been a French Canadian who went toLe Havre on his own in the early 1760s &was not an Acadian exile.
Where was St-Michel in Acadia?
Where did he & his family live in France before 1773, when he appears in Poitou? Certainly Le Havre, where he married Marie Henry in Nov 1765,& the priest who recorded the marriage noted that the couple had resided in Le Havre for 1 1/2 years. Perhaps Francois, fils lived in Cherbourg before then, where 2 young Arbours, Guillaume, born in c1749, & Chrysostôme, born in c1750, died in Dec 1758 & Jan 1759 respectively. See Hébert, D., Acadians in Exile, 12, which, unfortunately,does not give tids? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»he parents' names of the 2 deceased Arbours. Can we assume that Guillaume & Chrysostôme died from the rigors of deportation? Judging by the dates of their deaths, that's a pretty safe bet. We can only guess their kinsmen withFrancois Arbour, fils otids? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»f Québec, hence the careful language in the family history. Youngest son Louis-Joseph did not accompany his family to LA in the summer of 1785, so he probably died atNantes before Sep 1784, when the Spanish counted theAcadians in France,& Francoitids? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»s ARBOUR & his wifehad only 3 sons on the listing. Louis-Joseph would have been only 6 inSep 1784. The marriage record ofson Francisco [Francois-Henry], dated 27 Sep 1790, in BRDR, 2:20 (SGA-14, 15), says thatthe father of the groom was deceasedat the time of the wedding, so Francois would have died in his late 40s.

Wall of Names, 33 (pl. 8L), calls him Francois-Henry [ARBOURG], & lists him with his parents & 2 brothers; Arsenault, Généalogie, 2402, calls him Francois ARBOUR, & says he was b c1770; Hébert, D., Acadian Families in Exile 1785, 34-35, calls hds? 20s-e Le ssaole?ees18 Rivitab» «tab»im Francois-Henry, son [Francois ARBOURG's] fils, marin, age 18, onthe embarkation list, Francisco, su [Franco ARBOURG's] hijo, on the debarkation list, & Francois-Henry HARBOURG, his [Francois HARBOURG's] son, sailor, age 18, on the debarkation list, says he was in the 17th Family aboard Le Beaumont with his parents & 2 brothers, & details his marriage in LA but does not give his or his wife's parent's names or the place of marriage; BRDR, 2:20, 218 (SGA-14, 15), his marriage record, callshim Francisco ARBOUR, gives his & his wife's parents' names, says both fathers were deceased at the time of the marriage, & that the witnesses to his marriage were Jean B. DUPUY, Juan Carlos TULLIER, & Francisco Alexandro DAIGLE (his bro-in-law). See also Voorhies, J., Some Late Eighteenth Century Louisianians, 505, 526.
Interesting note: As teenagers, Francois-Henry & Jeanne sailed to LA onthe same ship; their families, in fact, are next to one another on thepassenger list of Le Beaumont, family nos. 16 & 17. The ARBOURs went to Baton Rouge with most of the other immigrants aboard Le Beaumont. TheDAIGLEs also went to Baton Rouge but by 1788 had moved to Manchac/St-Gabriel, just downriver. This did not deter young Francois-Henry from marrying Jeanne, whom he may have known, & loved, since their childhood in France. Although his marriage was recorded at the St-Gabriel church, he probably was married in the Baton Rouge district where he lived. Baton Rouge did not have a church of its own until 1793 so the priests from St-Gabriel would officiate at baptisms. . . [incomplete] . . .

Notes:

After their wedding, Frederick and Adeline settled near family in BatonRouge, where they had 12 children, four daughters and eight sons. The couple was confirmed to be living in Baton Rouge in 1840,in 1850, and in 1860. Frederick became oneof the highly respected men of the East Baton Rouge and Iberville Parishes, and accumulated considerable wealth inthe lumber business, which he lost duringthe Civil War by refusing to take the oath of allegiance. The reason for this may haveto do with Frederick's love of the southern way of life. In Sep 1850, he owned 30 slaves, many of whom probably worked at his mills. There were two Arbour sawmills, one at Grosse Tete and one at Baton Rouge, which were located on barges moored on the river front.It is not clear whether the sawmills were owned jointly by the elder Frederic as well as his son Frederick, or by the son alone. It is said, however, that the younger Frederickbuilt his large Baton Rouge home of red cedar from Tennessee which hadbeen floated down the river for a proposed railroad which would have connected Baton Rouge and Port Gibson. When the plan for the railroad fell through, Frederick obtained the lumber for his home. This was probablyin about 1831 or 1832. An interesting note about Arbour heritage hereis that even though they were separated by more than 2,000 miles, Arbours from all branches of the family pursued their fate within the lumber industry. Frederick's house,known as the Big House, rested on whatis nowthe corner of First Street and Louisiana Avenue in Baton Rouge. Many years later, the railroad put tracks down quite near the house. In fact, they were so close that sparks from the coal-burningengines often ignited fires on the house. Thissad factis the reason why the house waslater torn down instead of being preserved. During the Civil War, lifein Baton Rouge became too risky for the family so Frederick sent the women and children to live in Grosse Tete, Louisiana. After the War,Fredericwas forced to attempt to regain his life out of salvaged war losses. These trying times were no doubt the reason that Frederick did not live much longer. Of Frederick's extensive landholdings in Baton Rouge, 10 acres were still registeredas the "estate of Frederick Arbour" and remained within the family through 1962. At that time, Tallulah Arbour retained custody of the deed and paid the annual taxes in the event thatthe family should ever want to do anything with the property.
