Hi Heather,
Thank you for that information. It is very interesting.
I am indeed aware of my Robicheaux/Robichaud Acadian ancestry. I can document my line back to the 1600's in Acadia. My purpose of the earlier posting was to focus on the Louisiana lineage of my Robicheaux and Hebert line. I am a direct descendant of the Etienne Robicheaux/Robichaud mentioned by renown Acadian researcher, Stephen A. White, in the excerpt listed below.

ROBICHAUD
Cyprien Tanguay states in his Dictionnaire généalogique des familles canadiennes, that Louis *Robichau* died January 3, 1649 in Québec. according to Placide Gaudet, he would have been the father of Étienne Robichaud who was in Port-Royal, Acadia at the 1671 Census. Étienne was born about 1640. At about twenty-three years of age, he married Françoise Boudrot, daughter of magistrate Michel Boudrot and Michelle Aucoin, who gave him six children.
