    2. T We may have missed this before Deville Winston; Attakapas Post: The Census of 1771 p 13 Antoine Borda 50; wife ?4; Madeleine Robicho 15; girls 12, 2, 1; Negro 30; 18 cattle; 7 horses; 12 arpents without title. I wonder if Madeleine Robicho is a relative or a hired girl (child nurse etc)? on the page before (pg 12) are Claude Martin & Joseph Martin who may be related to the wife.

    3. We are absolutely positively sure that Simon Joseph's first wife was Catherine Thibodeaux.You got the records from Father Hebert with Simon's name attached. There is much more information on this family from other locations. You must understand that what became the slave registers at St. Martinville were actually the original registers. After someone decided that the slaves shouldn't be in the same register as other folks, these registers were designated to be the slave registers; and the entries for other than slaves were transcribed into a new set of registers. This is why you see Catherine's burial shown in the slave registers.

    1. Re: [ACADIAN] Quebedeau l'Espagnol
    2. Hope this is not too long. Karen (Theriot Reader) First Generation 1. Joseph QUEVEDO dit L'Espagnol was born about 1700/1705 in , , , Spain. He died1 before Mar 1745. Joseph was counted in a census2,3 in 1726 in , , LA. He was counted in a census4 in 1732 in , , LA. NAME: Posting at ACADIAN-CAJUN-L by Don Landry (Don2717@aol.com) in Aug 2006. The Québédeaux surname comes from Quevedo in the region of Andalusia in the province of Malago [sic] in Southern Spain. The Quevedo or Québédeaux family imigrated [sic] to the Louisiana Territory thru France which causes a great deal of confusion. All Québédeaux families are related the spelling was changed as French priests, who kept official records, spelled the name phoneticlly, as it would be in French. The principal variants of the name Québédeaux include: Quévédo - Cavédo - Québédeau - Quibédeaux - Le Québédeaux - Québodeaux - Québodeau - Kébodeau - Quibodeaux - Kuibodeaux - Kibodeaux, etc., dit L'Espagniol [sic]. Later posting in Sep 2007: "It is believed that Joseph Quebedeaux, his wife Marie Antoine Beau and their 2 daughters, Marie Joseph, Quebedeau and Marie Jeanne Quebedeau came to the Illinois country in the Renaud Concession. It is not known if Joseph Quevedo actually worked for Phillippe François Renault in the lead mines. Some info on Joseph Quebedeaux was found in the Illinois Regional Archives Depository (IRAD) Unfortunately the information consists of only brief card index information, such as the "Contract to hire Quebedo by La Pointe" in the year 1744. It is not known what he was hired to do. (Missy Burke's website) Joseph married Marie Anne Antoine BEAU daughter of Francois BEAU. Marie was born about 1703 in Paris, , , France. BIRTH: Marie-Antoine Beau was born in the diocese of Paris in France. (Brown ? Dean "The Village of Chartres In Colonial Illinois 1720?1765" p. 53 (D?74)) Joseph and Marie had the following children: + 2 M i. Joseph QUEBEDEAU . 3 M ii. Mathurin QUEVEDO was christened in Feb 1724 in , , IL. FATHER: This may be the brother of Joseph, born too far apart from last son. 4 F iii. Marie Josephe QUEVEDO . Marie married (1) Mathurin PINEAUX on 1 Mar 1745 in Fort de Chartres, , IL. Marie married6 (2) Thomas Alexandre ST. GERMIN DIT LAVILLE in May 1749. 5 F iv. Marie Jeanne QUEVEDO . Marie married7 Gilles du CHEMIN about 1750. Gilles was born8 about 1713. + 6 F v. Marie Francoise QUEBEDEAU was born about 1730. She died in Dec 1804. Second Generation 2. Joseph QUEBEDEAU (Joseph). Joseph was employed9 as in Mar 1738. Ramona Smith of Ville Platte provided me a copy and English translation of Josephe QUEBEDO's request for land, dated November 22, 1741. The original is on file at the Circuit Clerk's Office, Randolph County, Chester, IL. The copy is courtesy of the Evangeline Genealogical and Historical Society, Ville Platte, LA in co-operation with Winston De Ville, F.A.S.G., Columnist, Ville Platte, LA, Gazette: "Titles & Tales." Joseph married Marie L'EST . They had the following children: 7 M i. Charles QUEBEDEAU was born11,12 on 3 Feb 1751 in , , IL. He died13 before 22 Feb 1802. Charles served in the military14 Militia in 1774 in Pointe Coupee, Pointe Coupee, LA. BIRTH: If son of Joseph dit L'Espagnol, must have been born before his father's death around 1745. More probably his grandson. Charles married15 Marie Catherine RECURON "RICOUROND, LECURON, DECURON, RECHURON, RICOUROND, REQUIRON, REKIURON, ECURON" daughter of Guillaume RECURON and Marie Anne DERUIS on 24 Oct 1776 in Pointe Coupee, Pointe Coupee, LA.

Marie was counted in a census19 on 30 Oct 1774 in Attakapas, St. Martin, LA. She was counted in a census20 on 4 May 1777 in Attakapas, St. Martin, LA. NAME: Diocese of Baton Rouge, CATHOLIC CHURCH RECORDS; 1770-1803; vol. 2, Baton Rouge, LA, Diocese, 1980; p. 610; California State Library Sutro, F377 B3C3 v.2. On daughter Felicite's baptismal record in 1772, mother's name was Marie Francoise QUEBEDEAU BLONDIN. !BIRTH-PARENTS-DEATH: Posting by Don Landry to ACADIAN-CAJUN-L in Mar 2003. Marie- Françoise Québédeaux, daughter of Joseph Québédeaux dit l'Espagnol and Marie-Anne (Marianne) Beau, born 21 Nov 1747 [sic] at Prairie de St- Philippe, parish of Sainte Anne of Fort Chartres in Colonial Illinois (p. 230 ? LOUISIANA POPULATION ? des Forts Francais d'Amerique ? Tome II). Since Marie- Francoise was 80 years old at the time of her death, it is assumed that her year of birth would have been about 1724. (Hebert's SWLR v. 1B, p. 601 refers to SM Ch. v. 4, #388). She died at her son Nicolas PROVOST's of Bayou Teych. buried 31 Dec 1804 at age 80 yrs. Fr. Gabriel ISABEY. Marie-Fran=E7oise Qu=E9b=E9deaux was married on 27 July 1745 at St Anne in New Chartres to Nicolas Prevost, (dit Blondin) , son of CLAUDE PROVOT and MARIANNE BOULOGNE, and widower from Prairie St Phillippe. The marriage was recorded in Fort de Chartres Register, Transcript 23; Kaskaskia Mss., Private Papers, IV. Marie Fran=E7oise Qu=E9b=E9deaux and Nicolas Prevost, (dit Blondin), moved to Louisiana with her brother Charles Qu=E9b=E9deaux, where another marriage contract took place at Pointe Coup=E9e on June 6, 1752, possibly at Morganza. Marie married21,22 Nicolas PREVOST dit Blondin son of Claude PREVOST and Marianne RORNIE on 27 Jul 1745 in New Chartres, Kaskaskia, IL. Nicolas was born23 before 1710 in Longuille, Boulogne, , France. He died before 4 May 1777 in , , LA. Nicolas was counted in a census in 1752 in St. Philippe, , IL. He was counted in a census24 on 30 Oct 1774 in Attakapas, St. Martin, LA. BIRTH: In Paris, France? PARENTS-MARRIAGES: Belting, KASKASKIA UNDER THE FRENCH REGIME (Polyanthos, 1975, pp. 109-110), under Nicola Blondin, says that Nicolas Provot dit Blondin was the son of Claude Provot and Marianne of Boulogne [or surname BOULOGNE?]. He was in Illinois as early as 1736, for on 24 Mar of that year he was granted 3 arpents of land at St. Philippe. His first wife was Marie Therese Kier (?) by whom he had children. On 27 Jul 1745, he married Marie Francoise Quebedeau, daughter of Joseph Quebedeau and Marie Anne Antoine Beau. (Fort de Chartres Register, Transcript, 23, Kaskaskia Mss., Private Papers, IV). Belting found records for only three children born of this marriage: Francoise, Louis, and Jean Baptiste, but has no doubt there were more. The names of Joseph and Madeline Provot appear in the baptismal register as sponsors in 1762 and are probably children of Nicolas. Nicolas and Marie had the following children: 8 M i.

    2. John Hogg
    3. This is all very good research on Quebedeaux especially the references Let me copy an email; from another list e-mail received on the Acadian- Cajun mailing list 10/27/2007 regarding the origination of the Quebedeaux name. Quevedo in colonial Illinois Hello, I've noticed internet inquires about the origin of the Quebedeau name in the Mississippi River Valley. I believe that the Quevedo you are searching for, which has been traced back to French colonial Illinois, was a Spaniard with mining experience in Mexico and captured by the French at one of the sieges of the Pensacola Fort in Florida. He apparently advised French mining ventures in eastern Missouri. They searched for silver but found lead in great quantities. I've quoted extensively below from the most specific sources found. Hope this helps. Robert Myers 410 W. Hill Street Champaign, IL 61820 geocultural@yahoo.com ******************** Dunbar Rowland and Albert Godfrey Sanders, Mississippi Provincial Archives, vol. II, French Dominion, 1701-1729, Jackson: Press of the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, 1929, p.177. [Letter from De Lamothe Cadillac to Pntchartrain, Oct. 26, 1713] [Following a discussion about the prospect of finding silver and gold in the Illinois and Missouri country of the Louisiana colony.] "It is not to be doubted that we are in a country of gold and silver mines, but the problem is to find them, and how can we find them if we don not seek them, and how shall we seek them if we do not have the experience and the knowledge of them, and how in short can we succeed in this if nobody is willing to bear the expense of it? There are several convict miners in exile at Pensacola who greatly desire to free themselves from this servitude, who would ask for nothing better than to come into the service of the French for the enterprise of this search, but once more it is necessary to make advances which I am not in a condition to do for my part. Mr. Crozat is rich enough to risk something for himself along from which perhaps in the end he might derive immense profits." ***************** Jean-Baptiste Benard de La Harpe, The Historical Journal of the Establishment of the French in Louisiana, ed.

[Claude-Charles] Dutisne, ensign of the company of Canada, arrived at Mobile to aid M.. Crozat's operations. He brought samples of ores taken in the neighborhood of Kaskaskia. M. de Lamothe assayed the samples and found that they contained a large quantity of silver. He decided therefore, to visit the mines, and, without publicizing his intentions, set out for Illinois country at the beginning of 1715. Upon his arrival there, he inquired of the Canadians who had given the samples to M. Dutisne concerning the location of the site where they had extracted them. He was astonished to learn that the samples had come from the Spaniards in Mexico, and that it was only in jest that the Canadians had said that they were taken in the vicinity of Kaskaskia. M. de Lamothe did not visit the site where some lead mines were supposed to be located, which was fourteen leagues inland on the western side of the river." p. 66 "October, 1715.

Here follows what I have been able to learn about this affiar from a person who is well acquainted with it, and who has resided for several years on the spot. In the year 1719, the Sieur de Lochon being sent by the West-Indian company in quality of founder, having dug in a place which had been marked out to him, drew up a pretty large quantity of ore, a pound whereof, which took up four days in melting, produced as they say two drams of silver; but some have suspected him of putting in this quantity himself. ... Disgusted with a labour which was so unprofitable, he returned to France. The company, persuaded of the truth of the indications which had been given them, and that the incapacity of the founder had been the sole cause of their bad success, sent in his room a Spaniard called Antonio, who had been taken at the siege of Pensacola, had afterwards been a galley-slave, and boasted much of his having wrought in a mine at Mexico. They gave him very considerable appointments, but he succeeded no better than had done the Sieur de Lochon. ... [His silver mining was unsuccessful.] About this time arrived a company of the king's miners, under the direction of one La Renaudiere, who resolving to begin with the lead mine, was able to do nothing; because neither he himself nor any of his company were in the least acquainted with the construction of furnaces. ...La Renaudiere and his miners not being able to produce any lead, a private company undertook the mines of Marameg, and the Sieur Renaud [Renault] one of the directors, superintended them with care." *************** Robert De Berardinis, ed., "1732 Census of Illinois," ISGS Quarterly, Vol. 32, No. 3.

This silver lies concealed in small invisible particles, in a stone of a chestnut colour...The assay of this ore was made by a Portuguese, who had worked at the mines of New Mexico, whence he made his escape.

I want to ring my 90 year old aunt LeBlanc (from Pascagoula, MS) so she can show me round Belle Rose and how to get to the court house or where ever we need to go o look up some records on my Grandfather (LeBlanc) and Grandmother Blanchard). I am reading some information I found - Baton Rouge is the Diocese or Assumption Parish. Should I plan on going to Baton Rouge also? My randmother was a Blanchard so I have some information on her, but would like to ake copies of the pages in the Census or birth, death records. Also, do you now where I can get lists of the Acadians and when and where they entered LA? need to plan my days out for that week so I will have everything done before e drive to St Martinville on Friday.

Paul Le B l'Ascension Louisiane text below http://www.acadianmemorial.org/english/news.html#calling =============================================================== News & Events March 20, 2010 - CALLING ALL CAJUNS The Acadian Memorial Festival, a museum style celebration of the Acadians who settled in Louisiana, will be held on March 20th., 2010 from 10 am to 4 p.m. The "Evangeline Oak Park" is the setting for a day of old fashion Cajun fun. Enjoy an old fashioned spring day of Cajun culture and traditions with music, cuisine, history, lectures, theatre, films, demonstrations, storytelling, wooden boat parade/exhibit, antique cars, and much more. This day is an opportunity for Acadian families to join together for reunions and connections. Featured are educational and traditional opportunities for our younger generation. Bring your children, grandchildren and elderly family members to reconnect with all Cajun families. Acadian costumes are encouraged. The highlight of the day is the Reenactment of the Arrival of the Acadians to St. Martinville. It will take place on the Bayou Teche at 1 p.m. All Cajun family associations should join in a huge welcome of the Acadians arrival in St.Martinville. Let us make this the biggest day ever! The two families honored, who will participate in the reenactment, will be the Breaux and Guidry families. We will need two to 4 members from each family to ride in pirogues or barges for the reenactment. We will furnish the pirogues unless you have one of your own and want to bring it. It is mandatory that these participants dress as the Acadian ancestors did during their arrival beginning in 1764. Most carried all their belongings with them so a grass sack full of hay, old clothes etc. would have that effect. Come dressed the part and encourage all your family members and friends to dress accordingly also. The festival is free but Cajun food and drinks are sold to pay expenses. We cook on site: cracklin, boudin, jambalaya, fried fish, cush cush, cajuns sweets, etc. We also sell drinks: water, coke, beer, wine. etc. Also, anyone interested in selling their Cajun products can rent a booth. On Friday night, March 19th, we kick off the festival with a Promenade on downtown historic St.Martinville by hosting an art walk and free tour of the St. Martin de Tours Catholic Church, the oldest church in South Louisiana. The announcement of our two families, Breaux and Guidry will be made at that time and introduced to the public. Our L"Ordre du Bon Temp organization will be selling boiled crawfish from 5:30PM until 8:00PM. If your family would like to have a short family meeting during this occasion, we will help to accommodate a place. Most of the merchants around the church square will keep their doors open until 8:00PM to receive you, showcase their business, and allow everyone to view art exhibits displayed by different artist. For more information or to volunteer, call or e-mail info@acadianmemorial.org / 337-394.2258 or 337-288-2681. www.acadianmemorial.org or stmartinville.org Hope to see all of you on Friday and Saturday, March 19th & 20th.

    2. Cousine Judith The only question is are you a closer relative to me, Nat, Rita or Lynn? We all have our roots in Assumption Parish. We need to take your family back to 1900 and then we can use the Baron Rouge Church Register books. Please share what you have before 1900. If we do not have anything that early what do you have before 1930? Nothing earlier send what you have to me off list so we can kick some ideas around. There is no one printed source of when the Acadians arrived in LA. There are several lists for some of locations and none for other. Please check the Acadian Memorial online database for most of the arrivals. http://www.acadianmemorial.org/english/ensembleencore.html In Belle Rose the auto race track is the old Rodrigue plantation of my 2nd GGmother Claire Verret.. The courthouse is down the bayou in Napoleonville. Any ideas to get her started? Paul Le B l'Ascension Louisiane -----Original Message----- From: Judith Pate Dear Cousin Paul, I live in FL and want to come for the crawfish on Friday (March 19).  I want to bring my 90 year old aunt LeBlanc (from Pascagoula, MS) so she can show me around Belle Rose and how to get to the court house or where ever we need to go to look up some records on my Grandfather (LeBlanc) and Grandmother (Blanchard).  I am reading some information I found - Baton Rouge is the Diocese for Assumption Parish.  Should I plan on going to Baton Rouge also?  My grandmother was a Blanchard so I have some information on her, but would like to make copies of the pages in the Census or birth, death records.  Also, do you know where I can get lists of the Acadians and when and where they entered LA?  I need to plan my days out for that week so I will have everything done before we drive to St Martinville on Friday. I have been so busy for the past several months that I haven't had time to have some fun with this geneology. As the time gets closer, I'll let you know definitely if I will be able to make it.  Until I did a mapquest for driving directions and maps, I didn't realize how far west St  Martinville is from Pascagoula, and Belle Rose.

    3. Merci mille fois, chers! I answered Alan's query based on what I've learned over the years about the transformations and variations of family names, of French and other origins. That Quibodeau seems like a variant of Thibodeau seemed logical, just as Decato seems like a variant of Descoteaux. [I don't know if that's accurate either!] I welcome the opportunity to learn something new. At this point in my life, it doesn't happen every day! Since the starting center of the Minnesota Vikings (my namesake and nephew) won't be playing, because the other team won in a breeze, I'll be rooting for the team that won the NFC. Because Anne Lemoyne, sister of Charles is my 8G-Grandmother, that's why!

    2. Cousins Another Gumbo family. If you need help setting up your questions please send them to me like Daniel did (below). Or you can post direct to the list & we will help you rephrase. Joel must have come down the river on a flat boat(?) to trade and ended up staying. Does anyone have anything more on the family. (What I found on Pere Hebert CD below) Daniel is looking for anything more on his parents & siblings. I am interested in the parents of the 2nd wife (& her first marriage?) Anyone going to the Diocese in Lafayette or Courthouse in Opelosas any time soon? Did I read the Diocese correct originals kept at the church & copies at the archive?

The priest's handwriting (ReverendFlavie Henri Rossi) is difficult to read and it is apparently written in French. It looks as though Joel gave his father's full name and his mother's full maiden name but Jesse Vannoy's first name and I think Sally's Mores' middle name have not been translated. The information is located at the Catholic Church in Opelosas,  Louisiana.
