Biography (English version below)

Priscilla Melanson (1601 - 1692) is also known as Priscilla Mallanson and Priscilla Mallinson. [1]

She was born around 1602 [2] in Yorkshire, England. [ citation needed ] She married Pierre La Verdure around 1631 in England. [2] The couple had three sons: Peter (v1632), Charles (v1643), and John. [2]

Pierre La Verdure, Priscilla Melanson, Thomas Temple, John Laverdure Melancon, Sieur Pierre Melanson of Greenery and Charles Melanson emigrate in 1657 on "Satisfaction" to Acadia (Canada). [ quote needed ]

"Brought to Acadia with his family by Thomas Temple in the spring of 1657, Pierre, his wife and youngest son retired to Boston after the Treaty of Breda in 1667. Their two other sons, already married to Acadian women, remained in Acadia. " [3] Pierre La Verdure and Priscilla Mallanson lived on her lands in 1676.

Priscilla marries Captain William Wright on April 8, 1680 in Dorchester, Massachussets. She and Marie Melanson live in Dorchester. She died in early 1691 in New England. [2]

Biography ( French version above )

Priscilla Melanson or Malleson[3] was born around 1602.[2]

Around 1631, Priscilla married Pierre Laverdure, a French protestant who found refuge in England because of persecution of the his faith.[3] Priscilla gave birth to three sons: Pierre (b. c1632), Charles (b. c1643), and Jean.[2]

On May 1, 1657, the family arrived in Acadia with the future governor Thomas Temple.[3]

After Acadia was retaken by France in 1667, Pierre moved with his wife and the youngest son Jean to Boston. Stephen White estimates that Pierre died in New England in the winter 1676-1677.[2]

Priscilla married Captain William Wright April 8, 1680 in Dorchester, Massachusetts.[citation needed] She and Marie Melanson live in Dorchester.[citation needed] She died at the beginning of 1692 in New England

----------------------------------------

Family Arrival in Acadia

Lands of the Melanson Settlement

A portion of dykeland adjacent to the Melanson Settlement

Of the family's arrival in Acadia, it is widely accepted that Pierre and Priscilla landed in 1657 after sailing from England with their sons onboard the ship Satisfaction. It is also generally accepted that the family disembarked at St. John's fort at the mouth of the St. John River. The family had sailed to Acadia with the newly appointed English Governor of Acadia, Sir Thomas Temple and a group of other settlers. Pierre and Priscilla, however, were to reside in Acadia for only 10 years.

A Boston court document from 1677 (Priscilla's petition of May 3, 1677) recorded Priscilla's late husband, "Peter Leverdure", as being a Frenchman and a Protestant and "Priscilla Leverdure" as being an Englishwoman. This document helped early researchers, such as Father Clarence d'Éntremont, establish a connection between Pierre Laverdure, his wife Priscilla and sons Pierre and Charles. The document also served to clear up the persistent claim that the origins of the Melanson family were Scottish. On the same note, about refuting the claims of Scottish birth (this time for Pierre and Charles Mellanson), a second document, written by John Adams in 1720, decisively describes Pierre Laverdure's son Pierre as being "an aged English Gentleman...".

The petition goes on to state that Priscilla's husband had left "[St.] John's fort to escape the wrath of his countrymen Papists". This latter statement clearly suggests that Pierre was a French Huguenot who might have left France as the Catholic government's tolerance for the Protestant Huguenots began to rapidly deteriorate during the 1620's. Either due to the problems unwinding in France or for some other reason, Pierre ended up in England were he and his Priscilla were married about 1630 (SW).

Ten years before Priscilla's petition the 1667 Treaty of Breda between the English and the French had ceded Acadia back to France. Pierre and Priscilla, both Protestants, were probably unable to fathom the idea of living under a French Catholic government and thus departed for Protestant ruled Boston, Massachusetts, sometime between 1667 and 1770 (Sir Thomas Temple had managed to delay the actual handing over of Acadia to French until 1670).

Harrel Text: Priscilla MALLESON, an Englishwoman, married around 1630 to Pierre LAVERDURE, a French Huguenot who fled to Yorkshire, England;three sons,two became Catholics and Acadians. The family left England during 1657bound for Boston, MA, in a group under new Acadian Governor Thomas TEMPLE ,an Englishman. They moved to Port Royal,Acadia. After the Treaty of Bredain 1667, they returned to English Boston where Pierre died around 1676. Priscilla married 2nd on 8 Apr1 680 to Captain William WRIGHT. She died in Boston around 1691.



I was born around 1602 and in 1631 I married Pierre Melanson (dit Laverdure) in England. We had 3 children, Pierre, Charles and Jean. Pierre died in either 1676 or 1677. I married Capt. William Wright on April 8, 1680. Records indicate I died in Boston, New England in either 1691 or 1692.


Priscilla

In regards to Pierre Laverdure's wife Priscilla, we simply do not know for certain what her maiden name was. Many have suggested that it was Mallinson (or a variation thereof) but there are no records to indicate this in any official sense that would serve to accurately enhance any historical or genealogical research. In an effort to present the most factual data available, most professional researchers and genealogists omit any suggestion of a maiden name for Priscilla from their work.

Many spelling variations resembling the Mellanson name did exist in England during the 1500's and 1600's but it seems unlikely that Pierre and Charles, both apparently well educated and obviously literate, would go on to consistently misspell their surname when they settled in the New World. This and other details surrounding the origin of the name has gone on to create many theories and possibilities, but it is not known for certain why or from where Pierre and Charles started to use the Mellanson surname.

Of interesting note is that the Mellanson/Melanson name is not found in England prior to the year 1755. It is only after the 1755 expulsions of the Acadian people from Nova Scotia that the name begins to show up on records in England, where some of Pierre and Charles' descendants had been deported to.

Research Notes ==Facebook posting on Acadian and Cajun Genealogy, Culture, History & Music group page. 26 May 2015 by Michael B Melanson

Through his diligence and dedication, Paul Delaney has made some very exciting and important discoveries – including the baptismal recordsof brothers Pierre (Peter) and Charles Mellanson, ancestors of the Melanson/Melançon family.
In 2012, he published an article titled “Les Melanson en Angleterre [%E2%80%9CThe Melansons in England”] with the results of his research. In the parish register of St. Martin in the Fields Church in London, he found four baptismal records for the children of Pierre and Priscilla: Petrus [Peter] Meranson baptized August 15, 1637 Petrus [Peter] Meronzo baptized October 29, 1637 Katherina [Catherine] Meranzo baptized April 19, 1640 Caroly [Charles] Meranzon baptized December 14, 1642
These entries were recorded in Latin and did not include dates of birth. As the first two baptisms took place two and a half months apart, the first Peter could not have been an infant. It is possible his parents were new members of the congregation and had him baptized there as a toddler. Their marriage record was not found in the parish registers. As for the second Peter, this may have been John. Occasionally, a recording priest or minster would mistakenly inscribe the father’s name in place of the child’s – a simple clerical error. It’s also possible that the first Peter died shortly after baptism (as a toddler)and the next newborn child was given his name. No burial records for this family were found. However, clergymen tended to be less diligent in recording these events.
As these children were baptized with variations of the “Meranson” [aka "Melanson" - transcription error] surname, it would not have beenPriscilla’s maiden name, as once theorized. Also, Laverdure would appear to be an alternate name for Mellanson and not the other way around. When Pierre Mellanson’s daughter Madeleine was baptized at Rivire-aux-Mines, Acadia, June 25, 1684, he was recorded as “Pierre Melanson, Sieur de la Verdure.” Laverdure may have been a title or designation once used in France. ≤ref> Paul Delaney, “Les Melanson en Angleterre,” Cahiers de la Société historique acadienne, vol. 43, no. 3 (September 2012), pp. 44-60. ≤/ref>
