DavidTESSIER de Villauchamps & Capitaine de Longpre'

David Tessier de Villauchamps.

Family tradition as it was known before 1900.

"Descendant d'une ancienne Maison francaise fixee en
Hollande, vint en Amerique au commencement du 18eme siecle,
a la suite du Prince d'ORANGE. Il avait fait un marriage qui deplaisait a sa famille, ce qui le porta a se fixer en Amerique, David et la Capitaine de Longpre etaient parmi
les officiers francais qui vinrent en 1769 occuper la Louisiane. Il portait le titre de Marquis qui, en Amerique,
fut abandonne par la famille."

This above was provided to my grandmother Rogerson, nee
Kathryn Tessier, by Isabelle de Laurencin Beaufort of Provence who's grandmother was Eulalie Tessier.

Why was France occupying Louisiana in 1769. Can anyone
direct me to reference to de Longpre and his group?

Is there a known connection to the Tessiers of Canada?
Did the de Longpre occupiers depart from Canada?

I would very much appreciate any clues that might be offered as to how to understand more than family understandings provide.

Many thanks for your patience in reading this.

Sincerely -

Peter Parrish in Richmond, Virginia

SHAKOPEE TRIBUNE (Friday 16 September 1910 – page 1, column 2)

The sad news of the death of Arthur Louis Tessier at Aberdeen, South Dakota, son of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Tessier of this city was received here Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Tessier jr had returned to her home at Prior Lake on Friday and was to be joined by her husband on Monday after a short hunting trip. The message of the accident was received by her the following day after her departure.
Arthur in company with his younger brother, Raymond and a friend were hunting ducks at a lake 9 miles from Aberdeen the former using a borrowed, automatic repeater shotgun, loaning his own and less dangerous weapon to his brother. The latter had gone to water the horses while the other two were in a boat on the lake near the shore. Arthur shot once when he became overbalanced. In grasping backwards to stay himself another shot was fired entering his back and he fell into the water. Time to inform his companion that he was shot was all that was left him before his spirit took flight. His wife, her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Gilkey and his mother Mrs. Tessier departed for Aberdeen Saturday evening returning with the corpse on Monday.
Arthur Tessier was born in Filmore County, Nebraska on March 7th, 1879 and spent his boyhood on the farm there. In 1893 the family moved to St. Paul where they resided for four years before making Spring Lake their home. Four years ago the deceased learned the tinner and plumber trade at Duluth and established a business for himself in Aberdeen the following year. At the time of his death he employed three brothers and four other men in his workshop. On June 1st of the present year he was married at Minneapolis to Miss Amy Gilkey of Prior Lake who returned to South Dakota to make that state her home. Both young people are well known in this vicinity and their many friends extend their sincerest sympathy to the sorrowing bride and relatives.
The funeral was held from St. Mary’s church, Tuesday morning at ten o’clock: Rev. Fr. Lee conducted the services at the church and Upper Catholic cemetery.
Mrs. Otto [Otis] Spratt of Spring Lake a sister of the deceased and his brothers: Guy, Roy, and Raymond of Aberdeen, Albert of Duluth and Charles of Beardsley, were all present at the funeral. Others present were relatives and friends from Prior and Spring Lake and the twin cities.

Arthur Tessier, Former Scott County Boy, Killed While Hunting, at Aberdeen, South Dakota

Arthur Tessier of Aberdeen, South Dakota met instant death in a hunting accident on a lake near that city, Saturday.

DEATH’S HARVEST

ARTHUR TESSIER

Last Saturday the shocking news was received here of the accidental death while hunting that morning of Arthur Tessier of Aberdeen, South Dakota, son of Mr. and Mrs. L. [Louis] Tessier of this city.
The following extract from an Aberdeen paper gives an account of the manner in which the accident occurred that cost the young man his life:
This morning the hunting season claimed as its victim Arthur L. Tessier, owner and manager of the Aberdeen Sheet Metal Works, who was instantly killed by the accidental discharge of an automatic gun, which drove its full charge into his back, shattering the spinal cord in the small of the back, and causing instant death. He was in a boat on Lord’s Lake with Hector Wright, a young Aberdeen boy, at the time of the accident, and both men were standing up, shooting overhead. At the discharge he fell overboard while young Wright screamed for help. By the time the first aid arrived the man was dead.
The party, consisting of William Mees, Hector Wright, Arthur Tessier and his younger brother, Ray Tessier, had gone out to Lord’s Lake, a mile southwest, last night, and were planning to spend a full day among the ducks. Wright and Tessier were shooting together in a boat. It is thought that the man became overbalanced, started to fall, while the automatic gun poured its shot into the body while falling.
The entire charge had entered the small of the back on the left side and went straight for the spine, which was shattered. The accident took place at 10 o’clock, and the body was hastily brought to Aberdeen and taken to the Wilson undertaking parlors, later being removed to his home at 710 Ninth St.
Mr. Tessier was thiry years old on March 17th, last. He was formerly a resident of Prior Lake, where he removed with his parents from Nebraska when fourteen years of age. About three years ago he went to Aberdeen and engaged in the tinning and plumbing business which had steadily grown under his management until he was the owner of a prosperous business employing a number of men.
His marriage to Miss Amy Gilkey eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Gilkey of Prior Lake, took place on the first of last June at the Immaculate Conception parsonage in Minneapolis, and the young couple went at once to Aberdeen where Mr. Tessier has just completed a handsome new home for his bride. Mrs. Tessier had arrived here Friday for a few days’ visit with his parents and Mr. Tessier was expected to join her Sunday to remain for several days. The unexpected news of his death came as a crushing blow to her and the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community goes out in fullest measure to the young wife and his bereaved family. Upon receipt of the telegram announcing his death, his mother and wife, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Gilkey, left for Aberdeen at once to return with the body to Shakopee.
Funeral rites were conducted at his home in Aberdeen by the Knights of Columbus, who escorted the remains to the station, en route for this city where they arrived Monday and were taken to the home of his parents.
Mr. Tessier’s death is the visit to break the happy family circle. Surviving him besides his young wife are his parents, five brothers, Guy, Charles, Albert, Roy, and Raymond and a sister, Mrs. Otis Spratt of Prior Lake. To those who knew him best, to whom his loss is the greatest, we offer our deepest and most sincere sympathy in the great sorrow that has come over their home.
Funeral services were held Tuesday morning at ten o’clock from St. Mary’s church and were very largely attended. Rev. Father Lee officiated and the remains were laid to rest in the upper Catholic cemetery.
Out-of-town relatives in attendance at the funeral were:
Guy, Roy, and Raymond Tessier of Aberdeen; Albert of Duluth; Charles of Beardsley; Mr. and Mrs. Otis Spratt; Mrs. Katherine Spratt of Credit River; Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Gilkey, and daughters, Della and Iona; Mr. and Mrs. George Gilkey, Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Harding of Prior Lake; Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Tessier; Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Tessier; Miss Mary Tessier; Michael Tessier and son Carl; Manuel Tessier; Misses Mary, Rose and Stella Niquette; Mrs. Mary Carlson of St. Paul; Mrs. Rose Allie of White Bear; and Mrs. Jas.

Hey ya'll. Is the Canadian Punk Rock Diva-Avril Lavigne in any way a descendant of Urbain Tessier dit Lavigne. After all, the surname of Lavigne in Canada is not exactly common.

Okay, I am a dumb American, but lets not get personal alright. Thanks.

Tessier/Lavigne

JMaybank — 6 Jan 2003 7:32:29 GMT

Jan Karen
I was reading your message back and forth and a light went off. My great grandfather's name was Joseph Tessier. He was baptised and married, in Clarence Creek, Ont., St. Timothys, as a Tessier. Everything recorded in local records, up until 1920, are recorded as Tessier. Then all of a sudden we are now LaVignes! I asked my 92yr.old aunt what was the Tessier name, and she told me her mother hated that name and that was a middle name and the priest never recorded the last name only the middle name. Now my father always told us that his grandmother was Indian.After reading you girls letters I'm wondering if there is a connection. I don't know anything about the lawsuit? Judy

Leon Tessier Catherine Robidou

Elise Bonnette — 3 Nov 1999 11:03:13 GMT

I've just discovered this forum. Maybe someone has the information I am looking for.
My ggrandmother, Adeline Tessier, was married in Feb. 1870, at age 18, in Ormstown, Quebec,
to Onesime Marchand.
Her parents were Leon Tessier and Catherine Robidou.
Other children of Leon Catherine were married in that area between 1854 and 1870.
I am unable to find any definite information about Leon Tessier and his wife Catherine Robidou.
There is just a handwritten note in the Drouin books (available in genealogical societies in
Quebec) saying they were married "around 1830" - no place given. This would suggest they
were married outside the province of Quebec - the US? or Ontario?
Leon's parents are given as François Tessier and Marie-Anne Alarie (Halary. This would
connect him to the Urbain Tessier-Lavigne line.
Thanks in advance for any clue.

Tessier family

Sharon Spencer — 1 Jul 1999 11:12:51 GMT

My grandmother was Blanche Tessier, b. 1905 in Argyle, Minn. Her parents were Dosithe Tessier b. 1859 in Canada and Delvina Laramie b. 1866 in Wisc. They were married in 1882 in Argyle. Besides Blanche - other children were Joseph Albert, Mary Delvina, Arthur, Olive, Leonis, and Mable Dorothy. Dosithe's parents were Charles Tessier b. Canada and Catherine Boyer, b. 1867 in Canada. Besides Dosithe - other children were Arsene (Sam) (never married), Catherine (school teacher), Charles (m. Hariett Beauchemin), Marcelene (m. 1) Hebert 2) Bonaventure Vinette, Matilde (m. Delia Lebarge), Anglelic (became Sister Marie du Bon Pasteur), Moise (m. Alphonsine Bonhomme), Albert, and Orphir (a Friar).
I've been unable to trace Charles and Catherine. I too have the Urbain Tessier ancestry - but find it hard to follow - tho it looks like my Charles is decended from Ignace, son of Jacques, etc etc - this is where it gets confusing - but supposedly from Urbain's son Jean Baptist.
My line came from France, to Canada, then into Minnesota then by wagon train to Washington State. If your lines are decended from Urbain - maybe you can help me in figuring out exactly how we all fit in.

What is a "dit" name?

SueGrable — 31 Aug 2004 12:27:29 GMT

I've done lots of family research and promised to help my brother-in-law find out about his family. I have no experience with French Canadians. His grandfather was George Tessier, born in Canada, and he thought his grandmother's maiden name was Lavigne. Turns out her name was Elizabeth (sometimes called Isabelle--is this the same name in French?) Lamore/LaMora/LaMorie (maybe Lamoreaux?) who was born in New York. After their 1881 marriage they lived in Ontanogan, Michigan, and moved to Minnesota about 1915. So now I keep seeing Tessier dit LaVigne and think maybe that is the connection that he thought was his grandmother's maiden name. So what is a dit name? Is it the mother's maiden name, a place name, can anyone explain? Thanks.

Francios Tessier de Villauchamp

Jean Dobson — 9 Sep 2004 4:03:11 GMT

My grandfather was Stephen "Jeb" Tessier of Pointe Coupee parish. His grandfather was Francios Tessier de Villauchamp. According to my grandfather, he was born in France and came to Louisiana by way of Hatti. (My grandfather's youngest brother is 99 years old and lives in the house that belonged to thier parents near Jacoby, La. His health has started to decline, but he is still alert.) My greandfather said that Francios was given a land grant in upper Pointe Coupee Parish by Lafayette in the 1700s. Francios's son (my grandfather's grandfather) who I think was named Charles, was buried in a family cemetary near the Achafalaya River. During flooding the family moved the grand parents and the grandmother's sister to the Catholic cemetary in Moreauville, La. I have found their markers. His is very tall with a crown and flowers around it.(When I was a child I was told that deVillauchamp meant from the village of flowers??

I'm trying to get more accurate information on the Tessier's that decended from Ignace Tessier and Marguerite Marechal. Their son, Antoine Tessier who, I believe, was born around 1821 in Quebec had a daughter. Her name was Hermine Mary Tessier. She was born abt. 1865. I'm looking for more specific dates of birth and death. for this family or someone who has the genealogy on this branch of the Tessiers. I find nothing on Ignace or his wife Marguerite. Does anyone have any leads on this line? It looks like they came from the Clarence Creek area of Ontario.

Drummond Tessier dit Lavigne m. Celima Martin

w_a_johnston — 31 Aug 2004 12:56:59 GMT

Greetings;

Searching for any helpful info on a Tessier family in Prescott, ON

Drummond Tessier dit Lavigne (Lavigne in the 1901 census)
b. Abt 1860 married Celima Martin (b.11 May 1866)on Oct 10 1881 in Fournier, ON.

His brother Napoleon moved to Prescott with Drummond from Quebec. Believe the rest of the family stayed in Quebec. I have unconfirmed that their father was Leon. I have a Samuel Tessier marrying Celima's older sister (Marie Louise), believe he may be a cousin of Drummonds.

If anyone has any info on the ancestry of Drummond I would much appreciate it.
