Notes:
in 1632 Isaac de Razilly visited Acadia , He brought with him 300 persons among them are many of thre French names known today between 1632 & 1650 that French Acadiams Came in a great number to settle the new World, on trips made by charles de Menou d'Aulnay de Chanisay .
In examining Charles d'Aulnay's register it was found that at least 16 Acadian families brought on these trips setted in and around Port-Royal, with names like: Babin, Belliveau, Bourque, Blanchard, Brault, Dupuis, Gaudet, Gautreau, Girouard, Hebert, Landry, LeBlanc, Poirier, Robicheau, Savoie & Theriault, these names form a quater of the estimated 34,000 Acadian Families of today.
In fact d'Aulnay did not want to bring with him "Mariners" & "Adventures". but rather , Honest farmersand workers who would be capabel of working the land and living and living on it in a permanet way. This type of People, he found in the Acadian Families he had brought over with him.
Among these mentioned earlier were the Robichaud/Robicheau Family. the name which is derived from "Robin" or "Robert", can be writen in twenty-two (22)difrent forms. these are Robichaud, Robicheau, Robbichau, Robicheaux, Robichaud, Robucheau, Robichaux, Robichault, Robicho, Robichaut, Robisceau, Robishau, Rubishaw, Rebichau, Robichot, & Robichon.
The Achient from "Robicheau" is found in Charles d'Aulnay's record at the parish registers of "LA Chausee".
La Chausee is a small village situated in a southern direction from the city of "Loudun",which is located in the department of "La Vienne", in the Province of "Poitou". Poittiers is athe Capital city of the Province of Poitou, France.

1.2.2a Charles "Cadets" ROBICHAUD*
Birth Date: 1667
Birth Place: Port Royal, {Acadia} Nova Scotia
Notes:
His house and lands were situated on lands of Fort Anne in Annapolis Royal were expropriated from him for an extention of the fort. This was witnessed on dec 2 1705, by the land surveyor,Lord de Labat
In the Census 1700 Charles Cadet seems to be doing pretty well as he had 12 head of cattel and 14 seheep on 16 acres of land.
/Due to expropriation he moved his family to a parcel of land near a cape close to Port Royal on a small hill to the interior of the land about 1/2 mile from the fort
Unfortunitly the fort didnot offer him security to protect him fromthe raids from the new england settlers.After a failed attack by Colonel Churchin 1704, a more successful one on june 6 1707 caused a large amount of damage this included the burning down of the church ,and a number of houses at the Cape including those owned by Charles and his brothers.
Not discouriged however, Charles rebuilt his house and decided to stay at the Cape although Port Royal itself went to the british ib 1710
In August of 1714, LaRonde Denys de Pensens prepared a list of the heads of families living in and around Annapolis Royal, renamed by thethe Brtish in 1713. It included Charles Cadet and his family. He will living there in 1718. That same year, his last child , Marguerite,had been born.
Life became unbearable being surrounded by the Englishfor Charles and his family.
Like many others Charles eyed the fertile lands of the Minas Basin and the Truro area. Here the French Acadians were far from the English and could sell their cattelto Louisbourg.Truro was a good location with the seato make connections to Prince Eward Island. This is were we find Charles in 1720.
Truro was a small place like we know it today, but rather it covered a vast territory comprising all the surrounding Minas Basin. Actually, all around Cobequid Bay, French Acadians had established themselvs by small groups of three or four families. All along this bay small rivers emptied into the the paririesand very fertile lands. These families had settled themselfs on the higher ground along the banks of the rivers.
On these prairies, they would harvest a good quality prairie hay at the same timeacquire good pasture land for therir cattel. These herds consistituted an important source of revenue for the Acadians in this region. They could use a road leading to Tatamagouche, andthen transport their cattle by boat to Louisbourg, were they were sold for provisions to French Troops there.
The Colequid BAy area provided, besides being comfortable place,was an excelent secured area, as the bay was difacult to navagateby large vessles. But if it happened they would walk to the upper river where the indians would protect them.
A reason why a great majority of the French Acadians of this area were captured and deported in 1755. was because a long pathway leading around the hay was followed by the british soldiers. Now that pathway leading around the hey was followed by the British soldiers. Now that pathwayis accually a highway leading from Parrsboro to Truro.
Charles Robichaud had actually established himself in the Cubequid area on the Bank of the Great River Village today known as "Great Village", From the name , Charles Dit Cadet
