Looking for documentation about Michel-Marie Picot, born about1711, his 2nd wife, Francoise G. des Antoins, born about 1727. Son, Louis Picot de Boisfeuillet and wife Magdalene Peyre left France during the Revolution for West Indies and Georgia, USA. They may have returned to France and St. Malo.

We are decended from a Picot line coming out of Vannes, France during the Revolution with my Picot ancestor, Julien Henri Picot, being Lafayette's army surgeon. He later settled in Plymouth N.C.and had one son, Peter Oliver Picot, who had one son who then had a bunch. Our Picot first names are Louis, Julien, Henri, Guy--typical. Do we connect in any way? Interestingly I recently spoke with a Dr. Picot from Washington DC who knew of my great grandfather Dr. Louis Julien Picot of NC. Are you from the Washington/Richmond Picot's?

The only name might be Louis Picot d'Andelot de Boisfeuillet who fled to St. Domingue (Haiti) and Jamaica circa 1795. Then he and his wife, Madelaine Peyre, must have gone to Savannah, Georgia, USA as all 3 of their children were married there. They may have returned to France and died there. My direct line would be one of the daughters, Olive d'Andelot de Boisfeuillet who would marry Dr. Joseph Marie Fourmy in Savannah.
I see the name of Louis Picot de Bretagne in the birth certificate as a witness of one of the Boisfeuillet's who settled on Sapelo Island, Georgia. They all apparently dropped the surname of Picot and used the estate name while in the U.S. Ironically, Olive's granddaughter would marry a Pecot in Louisiana. Wonder what the connection is between Picot and Pecot? Pat in CA

About your given name of Oliver. This goes back to the first known Oliver Picot circa 1400s. Pat
