Her family came also from Louisbourg where her grand father Jacques Alexis de Verteuil and her grand mother Joseph Marie Dupont du Vivier de Gourville were married in 1754. [Source: SoHo Museum]. It has been impossible to locate any portrait prior to 1800 as the Verteuil family was nearly wiped out during the French revolution and lost everything. As a matter of fact this family is today present in Trinidad, Canada and other parts of the world but not in France but for another distant branch. Best regards. Ralph de Butler]

	Where the Currant Bushes Grow by Robert Paton Harvey: An Introduction to the Sackville Fultzes [... Four of those "59 souls" who are recorded as "German Protestants" among the Louisbourg French were members of a Fultz family consisting of Johann (John), his wife Elizabeth, and two sons, Lorenz (Lawrence) and Antony (Anthony). Likely they lived along the Mira River near Rouille in the "village des Allemands." These deserters from Nova Scotia evidently believed that they would be more at home under the French Roman Catholic rule on Isle Royale than in a Nova Scotia which was being given not only a British, but also a Protestant foundation, after the founding of Halifax in 1749. Writing of this strange discovery at Louisbourg, one commentator has remarked, by way of explanation, that while most of the "foreign Protestants became loyal British citizens…several Germans, who had registered as Protestant emigrants, were actually Roman Catholic…most of [whom] grew discontented and deserted to the French Isle Royale." Having left their homeland to better themselves, and having assumed the guise of Protestants, in order to conform to one of the immigration requirements, these new arrivals were no doubt unhappy to see their Catholicism barely tolerated in the new world. It is certain that the Johann Fultz found at Louisbourg was the father of Anthony, who was born on the French-held island in 1757 and who would later bring up a large and interesting family in Sackville. Anthony records as much, in an 1809 petition requesting land from the Crown ...] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
