HEON – Charles, b. bef.1720, Port Royal, NS & Beaubasin, Cumb. Twshp., NS
Submitted by Denise J. McCartney Apr-02

HEON

The family name is = Heon
Starting with Charles Heon, they were in Acadia when the Great Disturbance took place between 1750-58. Thay came from Normandie France.
I believe that Charles Heon established himself in Port Royal around 1720 and in 1723 he married Anne Clemenceau, then moved to Beaubassin where seven children were born. Anne died in 1748, he was then married to Marguerite Bourgeois of the same year.
I believe that Charles Heon’s occupation was ship builder.

Charles would be my 6th. generation great grandfather.
I am trying to gather all the data on the Heon’s to complete my Family Geneology. Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated.
Thank-you for taking the time to read my letter.

Sincerely Denise J. McCartney ( nee Heon )
