Grandparents of Appoline Fauline Broussard There is some confusion about her Broussard Grandfather Many people have Alexandre Broussard & Marguerite Thibodeau by mistake so please correct. Thanks again Karen for all the great work. ===================================== Ahnentafel Chart for Appoline **** Broussard Pauline First Generation 1. Appoline **** Broussard Pauline. Appoline married Jean-Baptiste **** Duhon, son of Jean-Baptiste Duhon and Marie-Josephe Gautrot. BROUSSARD, Apollonie - native of this parish (major daughter of dec. Augustin - inhabitant at Vermillion & Anne LANDRY) m. 4 July [perhaps August] 1812 Jean Baptiste DUHON - native of this parish (major son of Jean Baptiste - inhabitant at Vermillion & Marie Rose GAUTROT) Wits: Pierre CUVELIER, Louis CHEMIN, Claude Francois MARC, Jean Baptiste DUHON pere [Sr.], Auguste BROUSSARD. Fr. Gabriel ISABEY (SM Ch.: v.5, #266) grandparent entry DUHON, Jean Baptiste (Jean Baptiste - of Vermillion & Apollonie BROUSSARD) b. 15 Sept. 1813, bt. 7 Nov. 1813 Pats: Jean Baptiste DUHON & Marie Josephe GAUTEROT; Mats: dec. Augustin BROUSSARD & Anne LANDRY; Spons: Charles DUHON & Eugenie LEBLANC. Fr. Gabriel ISABEY (SM Ch.: v.6, #1603) Second Generation 2. Augustin Broussard was born about 1747. He died 3 Sep 1810. Augustin married Anne Landry Agnes. BIOGRAPHY: This is a copy of a letter from Stephen A. White, Genealogist with the Centre d'etudes acadiennes Universite' De Moncton in Nouveau-Brunswick, Canada to Miss Louisa M. Lognion dated May 5, 1992 on file at the Calcasieu Parish Library in Lake Charles, La. There is no simple reference to show that Augustin Broussard was a son of Charles Broussard and Madeleine LeBlanc. The key to Augustin's identity is nonetheless contained in a single document. That Document is the 1769 Census of Cabahannocer, wherein Augustin is described as a nephew of De'sire' LeBlanc. The problem then shifts to identifying De'sire' LeBlanc. Some have thought that he was a son of Jean LeBlanc and Jeanne Bourgeois, the evidence is against this. Rather De'sire' first appears in the records as the godfather of Anne LeBlanc, daughter of Jean LeBlanc and Madeleine Theriot, in 1734, and of Claire Meunier, daughter of Joseph and Marie Josephe LeBlanc in 1736. As both Anne and Clarie were descendants of Rene' LeBlanc and Anne Bourgeois, it is Logical to suppose that Desire belonged to the same branch of the LeBlanc family. Indeed, if one were to suppose that his selection as a godparent followed custom, one would be inclined to make Desire a brother of either Jean LeBlanc or Marie Josephe LeBlanc. The siblings of the former are all listed in the Declarations, at Belle-Ile-en-Mer, of Jean's Brothers Honore, Charles, and Simon, and there is no Desire among them. That leaves Marie Josephe LeBlanc. She was a daughter of the notary Rene' LeBlanc, by the latter's first marriage to Isabelle Melanson. Given that Desire's children included an Esther, a Simon, an Isabelle, and a Benjamin, all likewise given names in the Notary's family, the evidence mounts in favour of the conclusion that Desire was the notary's son too. When one considers the additional fact that Desire was sent into exile in Maryland with Joseph and Etienne Bugeaud, grandsons of Isabelle Melanson, and the he subsequently accompanied the Bugeauds to Louisiana, the circumstantial evidence seems more than sufficient to support the deduction we have drawn regarding Desire's parentage. With the connection between Desire LeBlanc and the notary established, it becomes quite simple to explain how Augustin Broussard was Desire's nephew. Of all the notary's children and stepchildren only one, Madeleine, Married a Broussard. Augustin Broussard must therefore been a son Of Charles Broussard and Madeleine LeBlanc.
