Daniel LeBlanc (settler)
Daniel LeBlanc (c. 1626 - c. 1693) was an early settler of the Port Royal area of Acadia.
==Biography==
It is speculated that Daniel LeBlanc was born in France in 1626 and came to Port Royal from Martaize, France in 1648 aboard the French ship ''La Verve'', a ship chartered by Emmanuel Le Borgne to bring recruits and supplies to the colony.〔http://www.acadian-home.org/leblanc-family-history.html〕 While not accepted by the French / Canadian genealogical professionals, yDNA has given rise to another theory where Daniel was born in Acadia in 1630 and that his father was Sir William Alexander the Younger.〔http://www.danielleblanc.lglackin.com/〕 LeBlanc settled on the north banks of the Port-Royal River, about up river from the fort at Port-Royal. He lived here until his death in 1693.
LeBlanc married Francoise Gaudet in or around 1650. By 1755, the descendants of Daniel and Francoise LeBlanc had created the largest family in Acadia. Le Grand Dérangement (The Great Expulsion) of the 1750s scattered this huge family to the winds. Since most of the LeBlancs lived in the Minas settlements, dozens of them fell into the hands of the British in the fall of 1755 and ended up on ships bound for Maryland, Virginia, and other English colonies down the Atlantic seaboard. Some were sent to Louisiana. LeBlancs were among the first families of Acadia and some of the earliest Acadians to find refuge in Louisiana. The first descendants of Daniel LeBlanc to emigrate to the colony reached New Orleans in February 1765 with the party from Halifax via St.-Domingue led by Joseph Broussard dit Beausoleil. After a brief stay in the city, during which one of them exchanged his Canadian card money for Louisiana funds, they followed the Broussards to the Atakapas District, where they helped created La Nouvelle-Acadie on the banks of Bayou Teche. All of the LeBlanc's in Louisiana are direct descendants of Daniel LeBlanc and Francoise Gaudet. It is now estimated that there are somewhere between 300,000 and 500,000 descendants scattered over all the continents of the globe, the biggest concentration being in Canada (in the provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Quebec) and the United States of America (in Louisiana and the states of New England).
