Biography
Full Sequence mtDNA Haplogroup A2 Earliest Known Ancestor
Marie Christine Aubois was a Canadian First Peoples .
NOTICE: this profile is protected by the Acadian Project because of uncertainty over parents. Please contact the Acadian Project before making any substantive changes. Thanks for helping make WikiTree the best site for accurate information.
Marie (Christine) Aubois was born around 1665[1] likely in Acadia. Her native heritage is recorded in her daughter Anne's revalidated marriage record (top entry). Moreover, maternal DNA from her descendants indicates a native haplogroup.[2] Whether she was Mi'kmaq is unknown, as other tribes also lived in Acadia.
Around 1686 Marie married Jean Roy dit Laliberté. The location of their marriage is unknown. As Jean was living at Cap Sable, Acadie at that time, could their marriage have taken place there? Cape Sable, Acadia is located on the southern tip of present day Nova Scotia, Canada. In 1686 there were 15 people listed at Cap Sable and the heads of family were: Jean as "La Liberte Le Neigre" (no wife or children), and the families of Sieur LaTour de St Estienne, Sieur Mius de Pobomcouc, and Abraham Dugas. All except Jean raised animals and most had cultivated land. [3]
Between around 1686 and 1708, Marie Christine gave birth to nine children: [1].
- Anne Roy (~1686 - 1717)
- Marie Roy (~1689 - 1765)
- Jean Roy (~1691 - 1770)
- François Jean Roy (~1692 - ~1749)
- Philippe Roy (~1696 - <1763)
- Charles Roy (~1698 - ~1760)
- Marie-Madeleine Roy (~1701 - )
- Marie-Françoise Roy (1703 - 1758)
- René Roy (1708 - 1758)
On the birth of daughter Marie Francoise, she is known as Marie Aubois[4], same for the 1708 baptism of Renaud (this record links Jean Roye with the name dit La Liberte)[5].
In 1693 the family was still living at Cap Sable and four children had been born. She was called Christine at this time.[6] The number of families remained small. During these early years of raising her family and caring for animals on the farm, her household must have seemed peaceful in Cap Sable, compared to the turmoil of Port Royal after they moved there.
Five years later the family had moved to Port Royal. He was now called Jean Roy and she was Marie (no last name given), same four children.[7]Their homestead[8] was close to the Melanson settlement near the site of the Old Fort across from Goat Island. The family remained in Port Royal in 1703[9], 1707[10]and 1714.[11].
In 1717 she was named DuBois on her son Jean's marriage (does this original record give their location (habitants)?)[12]
Marie's date of death is unknown. She and Jean appear to have been alive on September 10, 1730 when their daughter Marie Magdeleine was married[13]. Marie was named Dubois in the original record. Presumably both Jean and Marie were still living in Port Royal where these marriages took place.

mtDNA Haplogroup A2
A Full Sequence mtDNA test kit is registered on WikiTtree, reporting A2-C64T, which we can confirm only as Haplogroup A2 based on its presence in the Mothers of Acadian project's public reports. Marie Christine Aubois is entitled to the mtDNA Earliest Known Ancestor | Halogroup A2 template, which appears near the top of the Biography, like a sticker, on the right.
There are three Full Sequence mtDNA test kits reported by Mothers of Acadian project at FTDNA that report Haplogroup A2. There are two kits that report only Haplogroup A, which may be because they are not Full Sequence mtDNA kits. One of the Full Sequence mtDNA kits is registered at WikiTree and can be seen in the DNA Connections widget on profiles of all the daughter lines reporting haplogroup A2-C64T, which is refinement that we cannot verify through the public view at FTDNA. Nonetheless, based on two of those three FTDNA MoA kits having a match between descendants of an 8th and a 9th great-grandmother, who is both their Most Recent Common Ancestor (MRCA) and their Earliest Known Ancestor (EKA), we can confirm and corroborate the research work of others which has led volunteer genealogists on WikiTree to collaborate on verifying (with sources) the genealogy of two testers who are distant cousins and determining that the FTDNA kit results are being reported with fidelity.
Their matrilineal lines descend through two daughters of Marie Christine Aubois. Please see their profiles for detailed Sources and DNA Confirmations.
Some of our sources...
- Gendreau-Hétu, Jean-Pierre: The proof of her indigenous origin was established by triangulation in 2014. [23]
- A study demonstrated in 2017 through a double mtDNA triangulation that Anne Marie Comeau (1719-1757) was a granddaughter of Marie Christine Aubois. [24][25]
- Mothers of Acadia Maternal DNA Project verfies their origins using mtDNA of descendants whose family trees have been validated by Stephen White.[26][27]
- In 2015, Stephen White reported that descendants of Marie, had a Haplogroup A2. Ongoing test results are also reported here. As of July 2015, 2 descendants had a A2-C64T haplogroup, indicating native origins.
- French Heritage FTDNA project reported a triangulation and published the family trees of Marie's descendants here.
Research Notes
Origins. There is some discussion regarding whether Marie was metisse (native with a French parent) or full native. On most of the baptismal and marriage records of her children, the priest lists Marie's surname of Aubois or Dubois, which points to a French father. Some family trees list the French father as Julien Aubois (Hautbois) who is found in the 1708 Census at Cap Sable, but White does not link Marie to Julien, presumably because there is no evidence [1].
The evidence supporting her being native is the marriage record of her daughter Anne on March 3, 1706 (note that the transcription says 1703 but the actual record and a further note in the transcription says 1706.[28] The Priest records Anne as being the daughter of Jean Roy of St. Malo and Marie "Sauvagesse" of Acadie. Some advance that an alternative meaning for Aubois/Dubois is "of the woods", a name used to qualify her native origin. It also says supporting this, on the Acadia census of 1693, 1698 and 1701, the last names of the wives are listed. Not for Marie, where she is only entered under her first name.[7] Priests would sometimes make up such surnames in order to avoid having to record a person with no last name.[29].
Do not add parents without definitive evidence. Any new evidence should be posted for project to see and review.

DNA Confirmations
There is no requirement nor any expectation for a DNA Confirmation on the profile of an MRCA, but this one confirms daughter relationships instead of maternal/paternal. This is a novel DNA Confirmation, but, as it does not affect any part of the system, it is entirely harmless and is a way to square the circle.
- Daughter relationships are confirmed through Mitochondrial DNA test results on Family Tree DNA. Annette Cormier, FTDNA kit # 348700, and her maternal line cousin ANONYMOUS (a direct matrilineal descendant of Therese Ethier), Kit # 241277, have a Full Sequence mtDNA match with a Genetic Distance = 1, matching perfectly on HVR1 and the Coding Region, and with a single difference at position 309.2C in HVR2, thereby confirming their direct maternal lines back to their most-recent common ancestor who is Marie Christine Aubois the 8x great grandmother of Annette Cormier and the 9x grandmother of ANONYMOUS.
- The subject of this profile is Marie Christine Aubois, the Earliest Known Ancestor (EKA) of two confirmed daughter lines through Anne Roy (abt.1686-1717) and Marie Roy dit Laliberteé (abt.1689-1765).
- Tester Annette Cormier is a grandchild of Elizabeth Guimond and an 8x great-grandchild of Marie Christine Aubois through daughter Anne Roy (abt.1686-1717).
- Tester ANONYMOUS is a grandchld of Merie Milina Lafleur (abt.1881-abt.1909) and and a 9x great-grandchild of Marie Christine Aubois through daughter Marie Roy dit Laliberteé (abt.1689-1765)

Mi’kmaq Marriages http://www.acadian-home.org/Mikmaq-Fran.html
6 - Marie Christine Aubois (paternal grandmother's side) - Born about 1665 in a Mi'kmaq encampment called Quicnakagan close to the newly settled Port Royal in Acadia.
By 1632 when the French began to settle in earnest, there was already a 20-year history between the Mi'kmaq and earlier French explorers. In fact an agreement with the Vatican had been signed in 1610 through Jesuit activity in the area. It affirmed the Mi'kmaq right to choose Catholicism, Mi'kmaq tradition, or both. A Mi'kmaq named Pesamoet spent a year living in France where he realized a large number of French people would soon be settling in Acadia. The Mi'kmaq determined to form good relations with them, accepting the Catholic religion and taking St. Anne as their patron saint. A chapel in her name had been established for 50 years near Port Royal by the time Marie Christine married Jean Roy dit Laliberte in 1684.
He arrived in 1671 at the age of 23, but spent the first 13 years establishing himself as many of the male settlers did. He worked as a fisherman for ten of those years before setting up his own farm.
In most of the early Acadian marriages, the groom was in his 30's while the bride was in her late teens, as is the case with Marie and Jean. Because the Capucin brothers had established a school at LaHave for Mi'kmaq children, Marie would likely have been able to interact easily with the French settlers in Port Royal. Compared to early records in Quebec, where Europeans married natives, and their native names are recorded, in Acadia the native names are always replaced with a European name like Marie. This means the French were absorbing the Mi'kmaq into their culture, rather than the frequent Quebec or American West counterpart of European settlers being absorbed into native culture.
Marie Christine and Jean had 9 children, 5 boys and 4 girls. Link, http://julia-mindovermatter.blogspot.com/2007/09/thursday-thirteen-22-introducing-13-of.html
Anne’s mother, Marie, is stated in this marriage record to have been “Marie, Sauvagesse de l’Acadie (“Marie, Savage woman, or First Nations woman, of Acadia), which demonstrates that René and Anne’s mother, Marie was a First Nations woman. Therefore, this is evidence to support my prior assertion that the “Jean-Baptiste Roy” who married “Charlotte de la nation des Sauteux” (“Charlotte of the Saulteaux Nation”) was an “Acadian-Métis” man who “west West” during the peak of the “fur Trade.” https://www.sangmele.net/home/2016/2/3/utilitarian-centerpieces

Do you have a source for "Born about 1665 in a Mi'kmaq encampment called Quicnakagan".
In the paragraph starting He arrived in 1671 . . who is the he that is referenced here? Joseph Comeau? Is there a source?
It would be interesting to learn more about the school for the Mi'kmaq children. Can you provide more about that?
Thank you for your input here. Cindy
As for the capital I in Indigenous, I believe it's the current academic standard, but I'll see about getting it implemented in the First Peoples Project

The issue of the merge of Aubois-28 should be addressed.
Cindy
Same spouse (will be connected in a merge too). Son Charles is mentioned in biography of Aubois-2.
Cindy Bourque Cooper, co-leader, Acadians project.
Also could you provide the link for the Scott Garnier source, or at least include the exact words about this person from the document? Thank you, Cindy
I'd like to add my MtDNA to this profile if possible. I can be found in the Acadian and Amerindian DNA projects at Family Tree DNA. Any further hints about my linage would also be welcomed.
I searched in Ancestry and in PRDH (programme de recherche en demographie historique) starting at Joseph Bleau and Archange Germain but found no obvious links, unfortunately. Maybe you could ask G2G for help in finding the parents of your great grandmother Blow-413, and build your line hopefully to Marie Christine Aubois.
Aubois-2 > Roy > Fontaine dit Beauleau > Lord (Lorre) > Panneton > Mongle. Then, for potential parents for Blow-413 are Joseph Bleau or Blow (1823-1893) m. Archange Germain dit Belisle (1825-1859). The timeline and lineage fits, but we dont have any direct record matches with my ancestor that would not require a potential name change to Marie Louise Blow. Thank you. I appreciate the suggestion :)
Marie is her given Catholic name.
Re Name: The Acadians project uses the naming convention of Stephen White who lists her as Marie (Christine) Aubois. Wikitree does not allow brackets so i placed it as a nickname, which likely draws more attention to it than is warranted. Christine is now mentioned only in the Biographic profile.
