Re: Ignace Francois Broutin

PeteNormand1949 — 2009-10-29 18:39:33Z

My paternal grandfather, Joseph Spencer Normand, was the grandson of Marcellin Ludger Barbin. He was the son of Louis James (Jacques) Barbin, who married Irene Broutin in 1812. She was the daughter of Narcisse Broutin (Sr.), the New Orleans Notary.

TerryU — 2009-10-29 02:59:34Z

No. I haven't heard any 'new' news on that relationship. But I can't imagine there wasn't one - it's too coincidental. The name is not that common. I've been working on and off since 1998. My ggmother was Celeste Louise Broutin, daughter of Claire Cailleteau and Alfred Broutin (her first cousin).

How are you related Pete?

Re: Wederstrandt Plantation

MariettaPalmer — 2009-10-17 22:21:02Z

Alice, I grew up in Phoenix, Louisiana,just adjacent to Harlem. Philimon Wederstrandt, in 1857, freed at least one of my ancestors on my father's side of the family (Joshua Benson), his wife and children, renamed him Joshua Griffin, and gave him land in Davant and Phoenix (formerly St. Sophie). My great great grandmother was a Griffin and married a Summers. Today, the Griffin family survives and thrives in the area. I don't know how or when Harlem transferred ownership, but records show that it was later owned or was managed by someone named Smith.
On yet another branch of my family tree, I can't be sure but I believe that Samuel Reed, a Harlem slave,was my great great great grandfather, on my mother's side of the family. Harlem is on the National Historical Registry, and I am told that remnants of the building and of slave shackles remain.
Wederstrandt's brother owned Magnolia Plantation on the other side of the river. A third brother may have owned land in the area as well.

Today, Harlem is mostly overgrown with trees and has very few inhabitants. On the other hand, Phoenix, next door, is a vibrant community inhabited by many whose ancestors were slaves on Harlem Plantation.

Hebert Publishing bought by Claitor's Publishing

louiscatoire — 2009-10-09 00:00:52Z

I don't know if you've ever bought any books from Hebert Publishing in Rayne, LA, but they are now out of business. They tried to continue for a while after Father Donald J. Hebert passed away in 2000, but I could no longer get a response from them.

I then found a newspaper article that said that a small publishing company in Baton Rouge had bought out the Hebert Publishing company and is now selling the books in his inventory, plus they have the rights to republish.

Article: http://www.2theadvocate.com/entertainment/magazine/18178334....

Claitor's home page is: http://www.claitors.com/index.htm then click on genealogy books on the left side.

There are no descriptions for the books, but the original catalog of Hebert Publication is still on-line at: http://web.archive.org/web/20061023142931/www.hebertpublicat...

Please pass this information along to anyone that might be interested.

Re: The Flood of 1927

Jay_Schexnaydre — 2009-10-06 21:36:52Z

There will be no list for something of that nature, because there was no central agency to have recorded that sort of thing in the early 20th century. However, if you go to the State Archives website www.sos.louisiana.gov and under vital statistics you can find death certificate index online. Put in the year and surname and see what's available. You'll have to get the actual copy of the certificate by ordering it from the State Archives. Back in the 1920s in rural areas, particularly after a large disaster, I would suspect that some burials were not registered with the state. So you may turn up empty handed on some of them.

The Flood of 1927

tnbritten73 — 2009-10-06 17:31:33Z

Does anyone know if there is a list of the people who died in the Mississippi River flood in 1927? I had a boat load of relatives (majority last name was Britten/Britton) who died in the Atchafalaya River between St. Landry and Pointe Coupee Parishes.

Re: Jean Bte. Jeansonne, Sr s/o Charles Jeansonne III & Josephine Guillory

wseago9474 — 2009-03-29 18:41:37Z

Charles and Mary Duplissey-I don't think it comes under that
name as her parents. It might be Francois Hebert, and some
of the other names may be wrong. I come under the Jospeh
Hebert, and Francois and Joseph were brothers who had land
in Evangeline parish, and Rapides (on the border of the parishes). I am trying to find all the family members. Josephine Hebert is listed on the Hebert land that was sold.
Joseph Hebert was married to Minerva Humphrey, and he may have married twice. The Hebert land is supposed to be close to the McCormick Cemetry in Evangeline Parish. I would appreciate any help in finding relatives.

Re: Jean Bte. Jeansonne, Sr s/o Charles Jeansonne III & Josephine Guillory

wseago9474 — 2009-02-28 20:05:41Z

I come under this line, and there were two brothers named,
Francois and Joseph, who bought land on the Evangine and Rapides parish line in the 1800's. I come under Joseph.

Re: Jean Bte. Jeansonne, Sr s/o Charles Jeansonne III & Josephine Guillory

wseago9474 — 2009-02-15 00:20:58Z

I come under the line under Joseph Hebert who was a son, and he was married twice. Francois and Joseph had land in
Evangeline and Rapides parish. I have been to the Turkey
Creek cemeteries, and still have a lot of research to do.

Re: Jean Bte. Jeansonne, Sr s/o Charles Jeansonne III & Josephine Guillory

wseago9474 — 2009-02-10 22:27:51Z

I come under the line of Francois Ebar Hebert II and Marie Morella-which there are five Francois in the line. I saw a
family Bible when I was five years old. Joseph was a son, and I come under Joseph. I am trying to find all the lines.
I am hearing impaired, and use my e-mail to reach people.
Francois was a brother to Joseph. The people in Turkery
Creek are relatives, and I have been to the cmeteries, The
Hebert land was near the parish line in Evangeline and Rapides parish.

Re: Billiot Family Tree Houmas Tribe of Louisiana

My grandfather was Willie Billiot, married to Viola Mitchell. They lived past Lake DeCade on through the Superior Canal to Bayou DeLoutte. I'm not real sure about those spellings. They had 11 children, my mother being the youngest, Dorothy Viola Billiot Clement. She was born on a boat. The last boat they had as I was growing up was a small luggar named "The DEQUINCY"
Could you please get me a copy of the family tree if possible?

If you post an address I'll send you some pictures of there home on Bayou DeLoutte and a story I wrote about our trip up the bayous. I have several photos. My grandfather had a brother named Paul!

Re: Ignace Francois Broutin

I guess no one has ever nailed down the exact relationship between "Ignace Francois Broutin," the King's Engineer, and the younger "Francois Ignace Broutin" (1728-1804), son of Pierre Broutin Jr. and Angelica Grand. I've been working on this genealogy off and on since the late 1970's, and at that time we thought Francois was probably the nephew of Ignace. Does anyone know yet?

Searching for De Gruy/DeGruy researchers

rebornblessed — 2008-08-24 14:08:41Z

Greetings,

I administer the Degruy@Rootsweb list. We've been thinking that perhaps if we submit a list of some of the families allied to our Degruys, we might find researchers "out there" who might be interested in sharing research on some of these names. So below you will find a list of some of our related names. We are limiting this to our Louisiana [and maybe a couple of Mobile] names. We're not listing the European connections.

If anyone wants to respond, here are some options: you could join the Degruy list and submit your contributions and queries to the list. That would make sense if you have a lot of interconnections. If not, you could respond to me at the following address and I will then submit your email to the Degruy list and ask anyone relevant to your research to contact you. If you do this please use this email:

listadministratordegruyl@earthlink.net

This is an "experiment." We'll just have to take it step by step and see how it goes.

Thanks for any participation.

Jean Marie Mouledous was my great grandfather. One of his sons, Alfred Eugene Mouledous, Sr was my grandfather, my father's dad. He was a butcher and they lived in New Orleans all their lives. Alfred Senior and Lucy Delatte had a little market and butcher shop on Magazine St. for years. They had 2 sons, Alfred Eugene Jr., and Richard Calvin Mouledous. My father Alfred Eugene Jr., married Pierrette Marie Angel Palasset (from the Pyrenees in France) and had 3 children: Alfred Eugene III, myself and Daniel Walter. We live in Texas. My father still teaches piano at a university and my mother also teaches piano in a community college.

Hello! I asked my husband if he was any relation to a Dr. DesOrmeaux and he advised that he did not believe so. Though I am finding with the DesOrmeaux tree, in that area of LA, you only have to go back a few generations to tie them all together. As I research the family, I will let you know if we have a cousin who is a Dr in Lafayette.

Have a good one!

I am looking for information on the first DesOrmeaux's in Louisiana. Right now I beleive the first DesOrmeaux's in my husband's family line are Louis DesOrmeaux, b1741/1755 and Ana Trahan. I was wondering if any one had information on Louis or Ana that they would be willing to share.

Wanda,
My great grandfather, Flournoy Hebert, was also a son of Francois Ebar Hebert II and Marie (Dolly) Morell. I have a copy of a document signed by Francois Ebar giving permission for Flournoy to marry at age 17. On December 23, 1841, married Emilie Augustin Charlot Fontenot
-He was married Jan. 6,1846 to Azelia Jeansonne
-January 2, 1871 he married Celestine Deville, (widow of John David Clark. She was the daughter of Louis Deville and Celine B. Johnson.).

So, we are cousins at some level it seems

Still interested in finding this record.
Can anyone help me? Any ideas on where do I need to look for this license or bond or whatever it is to prove this marriage?

Thanks
