It's great to see such a response to the Leday family forum. I am trying to research all those lede's starting in Louisiana. Primarily in the St. Landry or St. Martin area.
Have been studying the census records up to 1930's. There are alot of them out there. Trying to find the connection between all of them.
Victorin Lede and Honorine Mathiu are my 3rd great grandparents. They had a son Augustin Ledee Sr. who married Celestine Honorine. They had a child named Severin Lede who married Marie Therese Richard. They had a child Severin Lede Jr. who married Marie Ulyssia Gaubert. They had a child named James Ledeay. James Ledeay married Laurence Artis. They had a child who is my mother.
My mother does not have alot of information about the family. I am hoping others will help me compile a family history of the Lede family along with other family names connected to them.
I know this is a big job. But I already have a quite a lot of information.
I was also sent a few pictures of family members.
If you have any information you could share please e-mail me at
