Looking for information on Prosper Webre (Weber) who lived in Edgard, LA . Together with Rosalie Jean-Louis, they conceived my great grandmother (Theodorine Weber). My family tree stops at Prosper. I wanted to go further back if possible. Any information would be appreciated.

I went to St. Augustine High School with a Morris and Wilbur Burbank (who I knew were related to my dad's aunt Artemese (Weber)Jacobs [A.K.A. "Aunt Temeese"] - Daughter of Prosper Weber and Theodorine ("Momma Noon") Weber. I also attended Xavier University and had a class with Morris and Wilbur's sister. I can't recall her name, but I know we shared a class. I didn't realize how we were connected until I began researching my dad's side of the family tree. If you are still out there (descendant of Prosper Burbank), talk to me.

I AM ALSO A DECENDANT OF TROSPER WEBRE AND ROSALIE JEAN LOUIS. THEIR DAUGHTER MARTHA WEBRE BURBANK IS MY GRANDMOTHER AND HER SON JOSEPH IS MY FATHER. THE ONLY RECORD I HAVE FOUND SO FAR IS THEIR MARRIAGE RECORD WHERE HIS NAME IS SPELLED WITH A T. HOWEVER ONE OF MARTHA SONS WAS NAMED PROSPER SO THE MARRIAGE RECORD MAY BE AN ERROR. WE ARE PLANNING A WEBRE/WEBER FAMILY REUNION IN JULY OF 2009 IN NEW ORLEANS AND I PLAN TO GO TO EDGARD TO DO MORE RESEARCH. REFER TO THE 1920 CENSUS AND YOU WILL NOTE THAT ROSALIE AND MARTHA WERE LIVING WITH PAT WEBRE. FEEL FREE TO CONACT ME ON 912 756 2972 (SAV,GA)
