Liz Albert had an exact date so he saw (or copied the microfilm) of the civil copy of the register during one of his three trips to France. She was probably born that day or was only a few days old when baptised. Her god parents were Martin Pitre & Angelique de la Forestrie, Tante (Aunt) More details on the family Gerard-Marc Braud, Les Acadiens en France, Nantes & Paimboeuf 1775-1785, pg 153-154 Paul -----Original Message----- From: Liz Hall Morgan Yes, I think the first one is Marie Rose Hebert. Robichaux (Acadian Exiles in Nantes, p. 93) has her baptism date as 20 Feb 1777 at St. Similien in Nantes, France, and she is not on the passenger list w/her family from Chatellerault to Nantes in Nov. 1775, so I think she was born in 1776 or 1777, probably in Nantes or thereabouts. Her family was on the St-Remi to La. in 1785. She married Pierre LEBERT 3 May 1796 in St. Martinville (SWLR, v. 1 p 282, citing SM. Ch. [St. Martin of Tours Catholic Church, St. Martinville, LA], v. 4, #127: HEBERT, Marie (Joseph & Juania de la Foreterie [sic]) m. 3 May 1796 Pierre LEBER [sic]) and later married Cire (or St. Cyr?)

Pierre LEBERT; inhabitant of this parish . Wits: H. PERRODIN, Charles HERBERT [HEBERT]. Fr. Francois CELLINI (GC Ch.: v.1, p.35, #81)) I found her in the 1830 census in Lafayette (as Mrs Veun Cise Baillow -- I corrected online) but haven't yet found her in 1840. thanks & let me know if anyone wants the census image-- Liz ________________________________ From: Paul L LeBlanc <pleblan@aim.com> LEBERT, Marcellite d. 29 August 1844 at age 38 years (GC Ch.: v. 1, p.65) Is this her? This is the person who died that day. Is the age about right? up to 5 years younger is likely HEBERT, Marie d. 3 Sept. 1844 at age 67 years (GC Ch.: v. 1, p.65) two other Marie Heberts that died that month HEBERT, Marie d. 6 Sept. 1844 at age 22 years (GC Ch.: v. 1, p.65) HEBERT, Marie (Valcin) d. 16 Sept. 1844 at age 7 months (GC Ch.: v. 1, p.66) Paul Le B l'Ascension Louisiana -----Original Message----- From: Liz Hall Morgan Can anyone verify two death dates for me which are prob. in "Southwest La. Records"? Marie Rose HEBERT (Joseph & Jeanne LA FORETERIE) who m. Pierre (aka Pierre Jean Jacques Joachin) LEBERT (my ggg-grandparents) several online trees have Marie's death date as 3 Sep 1844 in Grand Coteau, but no source and their daughter Marcelle or Marcellite LEBERT who m. Hypolite Paul LEGER/E (my gg-grandparents) Online trees say she died 29 Aug. 1844, also in Grand Coteau -- one tree has GC Ch. v. 1 p. 65 as source, would like a confirmation of this if possible. No rush, I can look it up next library trip but am currently working on my Lebert line & hate loose ends. :)
