Abraham Dugas (son of Roy Dugast) was born 1616 in St-Anne Auray, Brittany of Toulouse, Languedoc, France, and died 1700 in Port-Royal, Acadia, Canada. He married Marguerite Judith Doucet on 1647 in Port Royal, Acadia (Nova Scotia), daughter of Germain Doucet and Marie Bourgeois.

Notes for Abraham Dugas:
He arrived in Port Royal in 1640 with D'Aulnay. He was an Armourer for the King. Was given the designation of Lieutenant General in Acadia. Lived on the shore the Annapolis River, close to the site of Fort Anne, Annapolis Royal.

The first Dugas in North America was Abraham Dugas, gunsmith, born about 1616. A native of Toulouse, France, he arrived in Acadia from France in 1640 at the age of 24. Abraham settled at Port Royal where he practiced his trade of gunsmith. He married Marguerite Doucet, the daughter of Germain Doucet, dit Laverdure, and Marie Bourgeois, at Port Royal in 1647.

Abraham was kept busy at his trade, because, by the Acadian census of 1671, every man and boy over the age of 13 owned a gun. Not only were the guns necessary for hunting; they were also used in the defense of the colony, which was almost constantly under attack by the British. Abraham Dugas also farmed and held the offices of justice of the peace and syndic (chief of police) at Port Royal. He acquired a fair amount of wealth for the time. Abraham and Marguerite had three sons and five daughters. Their children married into the Melanson, Bourgeois, Arsenault, Bourg (Bourg), Guilbaud (Guilbeaux) and LeBlanc families. The family spread across the colony, and by the second generation there were Dugas at Grand Pré, Cobéquid, Beaubassin and Cap-de-Sable. The wide geographic spread of the family insured that its members would be scattered far and wide by the deportation and its aftermath.

Abraham II DUGAS was born in 1616 in de la Chausse, Toulouse, FRANCE. He was christened about 1616 in La Chaussee,Loudun,Vienne,France. He died about 1698 in Port Royal, Acadie. He was buried in 1698 in L'Acadie Que. He married Marguerite Louise DUCET about 1647 in Of Port Royal,Annapolis,Nova Scotia,Canada. He was employed as in Gunsmith. [Parents]

Historical notes on the Dugas family.
May 4, 1933

Abraham Dugas, the first name that came to America, was left Toulouse in 1640, to go s'establir Acadia. His ancestors were from Lyonnals.
Their original name WAS Crignet. In the seventeenth century, a member of this family was distinguished by prominent military, he was created a Knight of St. Louis and received the king a large area, called the field of Gas. Its crest as it keeps the Dugas of Lyon, was by mouth with the chief two swords in saltire and in quince peak.

His family was known as the Gas Crignet. Gradually she abandoned her original name and kept only one of the Gas she later wrote Du Gas, and finally Dugas. In the relations of the Jesuits found written on behalf of the Gas. The quince is on the shield is in memory of the first name.
Abraham Dugas was 22 years old when he moved to Port Royal in Acadia. He was a gunsmith's king. In the year 1647, he married a Port-Royal Acadian named Louise Doucet. By his marriage he had several children: we know the names of only six: Claude, Abraham and Martin, Anne Marie and Madeleine. Claude and Abraham are the ancestors of all Dugas of Arcadia and the province of Quebec; they form two branches, the branch of Abraham and the branch of Claude, Martin has remained single. Anne married Charles Bourgeois Port-Royal: it happens to be the maternal ancestor of Dr. Mignault, of Montreal, was the 6th generation, married Madeleine Germain Bourgeois, in 1682, in Port Royal; and is the maternal ancestor of Mirault and Robichaud of Saint-Jacques. Mary married at Port Royal, Charles Melancon; and it is the ancestor of families Melancon of Saint-Jacques and Montreal. There were several alliances between Melancon and Dugas branch.

Claude.

In the years 1755-56, when the dispersion of the Acadians, many of the branch Dugas of Claude were deported to Boston. Three brothers, Joseph, Daniel and Blaise, son of Claude Dugas and Josette Melancon, were exiled until 1773. Blaise married there and never returned to Canada. Two of his sons Blaise and Firmin and later moved to Saint-Jacques of Bass. One of the girls named Sara Blaise married at Saint-Jacques, Francis Faucher. It is the grandfather of the Rev. Faucher father and his brothers by their grandmother belonged to a branch of Claude Dugas.
Joseph and Daniel Dugas, brothers of Blaise, were both located in Saint-Jacques. That is what are all their descendants who then have to scattered in other parishes. Monsignor Dugas, of Cohoes, and his brothers are part of the Clauge and the canon Dugas, of Joliette.

The branch of Abraham has only one stem in the province of Quebec.
