Hi Andy, I have Valerien Prejean married to Celeste Begnaud (no other wife listed). Celeste was b, Jan 28, 1838 and daughter of Alexandre Begnaud and Elisa Constantin. I don't have Celeste's death date nor names of children. Alexandre Begnaud was born June 26, 1815 Lafayette and d. Nov. 23, 1882 his parents were Alexandre Narcisce Begnaud and Fanelie Landry Elisa Constantin was born March 13, 1818 St. Martinsville and died March 11, 1898 her parents were Jean-Martin Constantin and Marie Sonnier I'm sorry I don't have sources listed in my FTM files. Begnaud/Constantin are some of the first lines I started working back in the late 60's early 70's and may have sources on my paper files. Sorry to say those are still in storage. I hope this helps.

Area around La Rochelle Hugonot area in internal French religious wars before 1630. Where many ships left for new world. Were Acadians sent there during exile? Paul Le B Dogpile found -------------------- encyclopedia.com Home > article Saintonge Related: French Geography (săNtôNzh´) , region of W France, on the Bay of Biscay. It is now part of the Charente-Maritime dept. Cattle and sheep raising, dairying, and the manufacture of cognac from grapes grown along the Charente River are the major occupations; oysters are harvested along the coast. Known as the country of Santones, the region was conquered by the Romans and was occupied (419) by the Visigoths and by Clovis I (507). As a fief of Aquitaine , it became part of England (1154) following the marriage of Eleanor of Aquitaine to Henry of Anjou (later Henry II of England). During the Wars of Religion (1562-98), Saintonge was a Protestant stronghold, especially at the city of La Rochelle . The region was incorporated (1372) into the French crown lands, and was a French province until the Revolution (1789).
