    1. [ACADIAN] P&M of Dupuis Marguerite 1st wife of the Pierre Guidry of Cecelia
    2. Cousin During the Guédry presentation at the Acadian Memorial Festival yesterday the question was asked how she was related to MY Anne Dupuis married to Pierre's brother Jean-Baptiste? Pierre & Marguerite were probably married at Port Tobaco, Maryland. We have them at St Luis de Natchez in 1768 with a daughter & they also have a son. Marguerite & the children die before 23 Jan 1769 when Pierre remarries to Claire Marie Babin. This is one of 6 marriages recorded that day in the register of Pointe Coupee. I assume the priest came up the river to Natchez to tend to the flock there. The question is who are Marguerite's Parents? In Wood's Acadians in Maryland p 114-115 is Anne Braux (Breau) the widow of Jean Dupuis. Their daughter Monique later marries Pierre (& MY JB) brother Joseph 24 Mar 1773 at Ascension Church. Also listed in Port Tobaco with them is a daughter Marguerite who is not with them in Natchez. Could this be her? I cannot find another Marguerite in Maryland. Anyone have "Proof" that it is or is not her? Any other possibilities? Does anyone have parents of Jean Dupris & Anne Braux? Paul Le B l'Ascension Louisiane
