Answer 2

Here's some info:

"A French family in the ancient region of Auverge was the first to use the name Bordelon. Bordelon was a name for someone who lived at or near a farm, deriving its origin from the word borde, which is a Mediterranean French word for farm. Accordingly, the surname meant "dweller on the farm." It is a local name, meaning that the name is derived from the place where the original bearer lived and held land.

Spelling variations include: Bordeleau, Bourdeleau, Bourdelle, Bordelon, Bourdelon, Bourdeleau, Bourdeille, Bordeille, Bourdel, Bordel, Bourdelin, Bordelin, Bourdelles and many more.
First found in Auvergne.

Some of the first settlers of this name or some of its variants were: Antoine Bordeleau, a soldier in the company of Maximy in the regiment of Carignan in France, who settled in Quebec in September 1665. Another Antoine Bordeleau was married in Quebec in 1696 and had 16 children who carried the name through the following centuries in Canada. Jean-Baptiste Bordeleau died in Neuville, Quebec, in 1721."
