Antoine Bourg is the Patriarch of the Bourg/Bourque family. He was one of the first settlers in Acadia.
Antoine was born in about 1609 in France. His parents are not known.[1] Birth of 1609 is calculated according to the 1671 & 1686 census. Antoine's specific birthplace has not been identified. Suggestions include Loudun, Vienne, Poitou-Charentes, France and Martaizé in the Provice of Poitou (which is today Vienna). [2]
Antoine arrived in Acadia at the start of the 1640s or even as early as 1636.[3][4]
Around 1642 he married in Port Royal to Antoinette Landry[1]
Between about 1643 and 1667, the couple had 11 children: François, Marie, Jean, Bernard, Martin, Jeanne, Renée, Huguette, Jeanne, Abraham, and Marguerite.[1] Antoine was the progenitor of the Bourg line in Acadia.
In 1671, the family homestead had four arpents with 12 cattle and 8 sheep.[5] The location was probably on the north bank of the Annapolis River. See map image attached.[6] By 1678 most of the children had married and established their own homes, with just the two youngest (age 10 born in 1660 probably Abraham age calculated incorrectly and girl age11, would have been Marguerite) living with them. His name was spelled Anthoine and she was Thoinette Landry.[7] In 1686, when Antoine was 95 and Antoinette was 80 (seemingly wrong ages as he would have been about 80), they still have Marguerite, age 18, living with them. [8]. Antoine had died by the 1693 Census when his widow lived with her youngest son Abraham and his family.[9]
Antoine died presumably in Port Royal where he and his family were living, between October 5th, 1687, [10] and the 1693 census.[1] Notes: October 5th, 1687 date comes from Stephen White DGFA without explanation. His daughter Hugette has the same year spread for her death date, but his is more specific. (1687 1693) October 5, 1687: State of executed works in Acadia by Sir d'Aulnay; among those who made their mark: Daniel LeBlanc. Therefore, Daniel came to Acadia before the death of d'Aulnay in 1650 (ANF, Col, C11D, vol. II, fol 85). 5 October on 1687: Claude Thériot is signatory of a certificate in favour of the work of the gouverneur of Aulnay; the Thériot family therefore arrived in Acadie before 1650, the year of the death of d' Aulnay (ANF, Collar, C11D, vol II, fol 85). Note: October 5, 1687: Antoine Bourg makes his mark on the certificate in favor of the work of the Governor of Aulnay; he therefore arrived in Acadia before 1650, the year of Aulnay's death (ANF, Col C11D, vol. II, fol 85) (S. White)

Discussion
Two different sources do not agree that Perinne Bourg is his sister.[15] Further, "We could not determine if there was any family relationship between Perrine Bourg and Antoine Bourg, below: The absense of dispensing consanguinity from the marriages of Charles Savoie, grandson of Marie to Antoine Bourg , with Françoise Antoine Bourg, with Brigette Martin, also granddaughter of Jeanne Pelletret, seems to show us that Perrine at Antoine were not brother and sister."[1]
Biographie
"Antoine Bourque, l'ancêtre de la famille Bourque en Acadie, est né en France vers 1609. Nous ne disposons d'aucune preuve de son lieu de naissance, mais certains croient qu'il a vu le jour à Martaizé, dans la province de Poitou (aujourd'hui dans le département de Vienne).
Quoiqu'il en soit, nous savons qu'Antoine est venu en Acadie au début des années 1640, ou même avant.
Vers 1642, il s'est marié à Antoinette Landry, qui lui a donné au-moins onze enfants.

He died between 6 Oct 1687 and the census of 1693. A note explains that (based on dispensation) he does not seem to be the brother of Perrine BOURG married to Simon PELLETRET & René LANDRY.
