| [Hebert.FTW] Brian Comeaux, "The Morning Advocate, May 7, 1998, Baton Rouge, La.," Column by Damon Veach, entitled "Louisiana Ancestors". Jean dit Emmanuel, his wife, Magdeleine Dugas, and their family helped to found the Memrancook-Chipoudy region in present day New Brunswick, Canada. One of their sons, Jean Baptiste, married Claire Robichaud, the daughter of Charles Robichaud. Eventually a feud erupted between the Heberts and their allies, the Cyrs (Suire) against the Blanchard family. One of the Cyr boys, Jean Jacques, married the 2nd daughter of Jean dit Emmanuel named Marie Josephe. Jean Jacques, his wife, and two of her younger brothers (Michel & Belony) encroached on land along the Memramcook River claimed by the Blanchard family. It was no doubt therefore a Blanchard who gave the Hebert settlement the rather unflattering name of Butte a Retard. Finally, one of the sons of Jean dit Emmanuel, Armand, married Madeleine Richard. Madeleine's brother, Jean Baptiste, was an ally of the Blanchard family, and this marriage began a process of reconciliation between the Blanchards and the Heberts in the Memramcook Valley just a few years before the British invasion of 1755. | ||||||||||||||||||||
