Cyprien was born in Tracadie, Queens, Prince Edward Island. His parents were Jacques Haché dit Gallant, Sr. (~1712-~1793) from Beaubassin, Nova Scotia and Marie Josephe Boudrot (17 Oct 1717-~1798) from Port Royal, Nova Scotia, who married on 20 Jun 1735 at Saint-Jean-l’Evangélist in Port-Lajoie, Ile-St-Jean, Acadia (near modern Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island). He had a reported 11 siblings, because who didn’t?

Marie was supposedly the eldest of 12 children to Joseph Bernard (1723-????) and Nathalie Arsenault (1738-1821), who married about 1755 in Egmont Bay, Prince Edward Island. The approximate year of her birth doesn’t line up especially well with the approximate year of her parents’s marriage, but I wasn’t there to check.

Cyprien and Marie married about 1772 in Cascumpec, Prince, Prince Edward Island. Their first child was reportedly born in Carleton, Bonaventure, Quebec, which is possible but I doubt it. Their second was reportedly born in Miscouche, Prince Edward Island, which is much more likely. Their third was in Cascumpec (Bloomfield), Prince Edward Island.

Some sources have the family surname as Haché dit Gallant. The children might have gone by either version, or just Gallant. It hardly matters now. I’ve left them all as Gallant to save time.

Children

Cyprien Jr. married Charlotte Haché dit Gallant (1776-1819) in Rustico about 1797. Yes, that was her maiden name, or so says the record. Their children:
