Notes:

François Pellerin was in Acadia by 1658. An interesting story about him and his wife has survived, from Port-Royal court records. Hector de Grandfontaine, who came to Acadia as governor in 1670, brought with him an astronomer named Jean Campagna. Settling at Beaubassin, this Campagna soon was regarded as a sorcerer by the whole neighborhood, and was tried in 1684 for causing several deaths by witchcraft. One of the witnesses who testified was our ancestor Andrée Martin Pellerin, then a widow. She told the court that some nine years earlier, she had seen Campagna in the street "insulting" a young girl, and had struck him with her walking stick. He told her that she would regret it. In 1678 at Beaubassin, Campagna "breathed into the eye" of her husband François, who immediately fell ill and died soon afterwards. Several relatives, including her sister-in-law and her new husband Pierre Mercier, corroborated the story. Her future son-in-law, Pierre Gaudin, testified that Campagna had "bewitched" him, but withdrew the spell when Gaudin threatened him. Campagna was acquitted.
