WELCOME
Welcome to the Caissy Family Website! We hope you enjoy your visit as we
gather to learn and remember our family's history. From one young couple
in the village of Beaubassin,  Acadia, we have now grown to having
descendants in numerous countries and continents across the globe. As
you visit our site from wherever you are, please take a warm family
greeting from us all! Please take the time to visit and post to our
guest book, we appreciate your comments!
The Caissy family has the distinction of being the only known
Irish-Acadian family to be found in the records of Acadia prior to 1755.
We can trace the genesis of the family to one couple, Roger Kuessy and
Marie Francoise Poirier, who are first found residing in Port Royal,
today's Annapolis Royal, in Nova Scotia. From there, we can trace their
move from Port Royal to the village of Beaubassin and their descendants
to other villages in the region. We have some record that bears witness
to our family's experiences through the deportations that began in 1755
and have led to the global presence of known Caissy descendants in
North America, Australia and Europe. We bear differing surnames: Casey,
Caissy, Caissey, Caissie, Quessy, Roger and Rogers but we all share the
history of the family that this web site endeavors to tell.
 
Bienvenu à la page Web de la famille Caissy. Nous espérons que cette
visite vous fera connaître et apprécier l'histoire de notre famille.
Issus d'un jeune couple établi à Beaubassin en Acadie, nous nous
retrouvons aujourd'hui dans plusieurs pays et sur plusieurs continents.
Que votre visite sur notre site, peu importe votre provenance, soit
accompagnée de nos salutations sincères. Attardez-vous sur nos
différentes pages et signez notre Guest Book. Nous apprécions tous
les commentaires. 
La famille Caissy a la distinction d'être issue du premier Irlandais
à s'installer en sol acadien. La famille remonte à un couple, Roger
Kuessy et Marie Françoise Poirier, que l'on retrouve pour la
première fois en 1671 à Port Royal, aujourd'hui Annapolis Royal,
Nouvelle-Ecosse. De là, on suit ses traces jusqu'à Beaubassin et
celles de ses descendants dans les villages environnants. Nous
possédons quelques documents qui attestent du sort que la famille a
connu au cours des déportations qui débutèrent en 1755, et qui
contribuèrent à la présence des descendants Caissy à travers le
monde, notamment en Amérique-du-Nord, en Australie et en Europe. Nous
affichons des patronymes différents – Casey, Caissy, Caissey,
Caissie, Quessy, Roger et Rogers – mais nous partageons tous
l'histoire de la famille que nous voulons vous raconter sur ce site
Web.
