Biography

Jean Baptiste Teriau lived in Baye de Mordienne on Isle Royal in 1752, with his parents Pierre and Margueritte Guerin and 7 siblings who were all natives of Acadie. ^[1]

He married Marie Sirs[sic], daughter of Pierre Sirs and Magdeleine Poirier in Roxbury, Suffolk, MA on 27 Nov 1761, rehabilitated (Miquelon Register) on 11 Nov 1763. ^[2][3] and ^[4]and ^[5]

Residences

It seem likely that he and Marie were in Massachusetts at least from 1760/1761 (the time of marriage) to August 1763^[6]

By Oct 16, 1763 Jean Baptiste and Marie had traveled to Miquelon as noted by the marriage record in Miquelon.

On 13 Nov 1767 parents and 4 children arrived at St Malo from St. Pierre and Miquelon on the schooner "La Creole."

On 16 Mar 1768 [4 months later?] this family returned to St. Pierre and Miquelon on the same ship.

On 6 Nov 1778 parents and 7 children arrived at St. Malo from St. Pierre and Miquelon on the brigantine "La Jeannette."^[7]

Deported to La Rochelle in 1778 he "est revenu au pays" (returned to the country) and most members of his family settled at Iles-de-la-Madeleine.^[8]

However, he is listed in the 1784 and 1785 Censuses of Miquelon, France where he was a fisherman and carpenter, according to White.^[9]

Wife Marie died in Miquelon, France in 1787, so it seems unlikely that the country he returned to was Quebec.

Death

No death record was found in Quebec, in Drouin (IGD) between 1780 and 1820 for Jean Baptiste Terriot or Theriault, including search with spouses name (Bourque-573 05:43, 13 November 2018 (UTC))
