Looking for any PEQUIGNEY's out there. Researching in US FRANCE. Thanks! Eliz

I am a great great granddaughter of Francois Xavier Pequigney. He and his wife, Rosalie Deloye, are buried in a cemetary in Winchester, Tennessee. We know that they sailed from France in 1854. Sometime between the time they landed in the US and 1880 the spelling changed to Pickney. There are many many descendants of this couple.

Norma, Hello! I am desc. from Frank s/o Francois Xavier buried in Winchester, TN. I have the book Mr. Pickney did on the family and I have been trying to find info further back. It is so nice to hear from another Pequigney/Pickney desc. Eliz

Hi! Don't know if you're still looking, but I am the great great granddaughter of Louis, s/o Francois Xavier (the one who came to America and was married to Rosalie [or her American name, Rosanna] Deloye). His parents names were: Francois Xavier Pequigney and Anna Grisez. That's as far back as I go currently. If you've found anything else, please let me know. Erin

Hi, As a french descendant of Pequigney of Plancher-Bas, i did some researchs, and thanks to many other good-willing people, I have now some (still very incomplete) data on these families back to 1600's. Those interested can email me, I'm always happy to know about distant cousins.

Hi Philippe! Your posting is from 5 years ago almost, but maybe you will still get this. I'm trying to piece together my grandfather's family tree. His mother was Myrtle May Pickney 1895-1989. Her father was Edward Louis Pickney 1872-1958. I have found info suggesting his father is Charles Luis Pequigney. Charles father is Francois Xavior Pequigney. Not sure if you have traced down to Myrtle May pickney or have any more info on the Pickney's, but that would be great. I've just started researching family history and am excited to hear I have French ancestry. I love France! Well I only had the privilege to visit Paris once last year, but I loved it. I love the language, (though I took 5 years in high school and college, I have forgotten so much) the people, the culture, everything! I've wondered why I have this love for France. Perhaps this is the reason why! I have French blood down the line! haha =)

I am a great-granddaughter of Edward Louis Pickney. And grandaughter of Pearl Victoria, Myrle's sister. Their mother was Martha Ellen Stuart who died when they were very small. On the Pickney side. Edward's father was Julius Pickney son of William X. I used to have a photo of him but lost it somewhere. He was a tiny man.
