Judy, Are these Guidry's one of your lines? My husband's paternal great grandmother was Adolphina Guidry born Sept 22, 1877 Breaux Bridge and died Jan 11, 1963 Breaux Bridge married to Henri Tauzin. I met her a few months before I married her great grandson. I don't know if she really understood who I was and why I was meeting her. She died a few weeks before my wedding. So many of my husbands great aunts and uncles and even his maternal grandmother spoke very little English. I always felt I had really gone on a vacation when we visited my husband's family. The language, food (oh the great meals they cook) everything was so different. Of course, to my husband, it was just his family in La. Desire Guidry - I didn't have that name. I've really not worked, just collected information. Thank you for mentioning him. Hope you and everyone on this list has a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Interestingly, I have discovered a propensity for longevity amongst the descendants (particularly males) of Jean Baptiste Guidry. I suspect the gene comes from his wife's father, Charles Dupuis, who died in Maryland in 1790 in his 90s. Just a few of the ones I found are Desire Guidry (1832-1929), son of Narcisse Guidry and Emeranthe Blanchard; Agnes Guidry (1869-1969), daughter of Valery Guidry and Virginie Basiline Blanchard; and Appolinaire Guidry (1869-1969), son of Ulger Guidry and Adelaide Alexina LeBlanc. The oldest I found was Sosthene Patin (1873-1976), son of Adam Patin and Erazie Guidry. Nonc Sos was married to my grandmother's sister, Idea Legrand. He had gall bladder trouble in his 70s, but the doctors said he was too old to operate on. So they waited until he was 100. He lived to be 103!

This is a reminder that over 2000 of our priceless Acadian and Cajun documents and artifacts in the Acadian Museum in Erath, LA were severely damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Rita. The Museum and the annex at Lake Peigneur [named for Peigneur LeBlanc!] also received heavy damage. The Cajuns don't give in to adversity as demonstrated by the saying "lache pas la patate!" but the Acadian Museum needs your help. I have made a donation and I've asked my children to donate to the museum the amount that they would have spent on a Christmas gift for me so that they would understand the importance of preserving our heritage. Please consider a small gift [$10-25] or purchase the excellent books by Warren Perrin and General Dronet to help the museum. See my Acadian Museum page at http://www.thecajuns.com/museum.htm for a report on the damage and the address to send donations. Stanley LeBlanc http://www.thecajuns.com

The book Old Mobile Fort Louis de la Louisiana 1702-1711 by Jay Higginbotham has the background info on Saucier and Savary. It also has insight into the Sayove issue. Jean Baptiste Saucier was a French-Canadian and was one of the recruits by Bienville. Gabrielle Savary was one of the "King's Daughters" - young women brought from France to marry the single men. Jean Baptiste and Gabrielle were the first couple married at Fort Louis. In addition to the two sons in my earlier post, her first son, Claude was born in 1705. Claude later claimed a stipend as the first child born in Louisiana which is why there was an investigation mentioned in First Families of Louisiana. He was approved! Re Savoye: Ile Dauphine was originally called Ile Massacre. In 1711, the King approved a recommendation from Governor Cadillac [who was in Detroit and never went to Louisiana!] to rename Isle Massacre to Isle Dauphine in honor of Marie Adelaide de Savoye, Duchesse de Bourgogne, who was the King's beloved granddaughter-in-law. She had become the Dauphine in April 1711. The Dauphine is the wife of the Dauphin who is the successor to the throne [like the Crown Prince in England]. Cadillac had also proposed renaming Fort St. Louis to "Immobile" but the King retained the original name. Note: Even though the French officials were quick to use Ile Dauphine, the name Ile Massacre remained in use until early in the 19th Century. Tidbit: The Ile Gullori is cutoff from Ile Dauphine by the Pass de Guillori. The Guillory line in SW Louisiana came from Ile Guillori in 1763-64. Stanley LeBlanc http://www.thecajuns.com

Paul, Re Gabrielle Savary - see excerpt: The Gulf Coast Colonials, The colonists shows that Gabrielle Savary was the wife of Jean Baptiste Saucier who was a merchant at Fort Louis. They had 2 sons: Jean Baptiste, bn Nov. 27, 1707 and Jacques, bn. Apr. 28, 1710. Gabrielle apparently had a second marriage to Jean Sansot dit De La Grange who was a Corporal in La Tour's Company. They had a daughter, Jeanne Gabrielle bn. 10 18 1721. The same record has a Jean Saucier married to Marguerite Arlu with an unnamed daughter, bt. Nov. 11, 1725.

I'd like to take a second to thank all the wonderful people who help us all so much in our searches here. We are very fortunate to have list members who always help when they can, offer lookups, and generally help us sort out our confusions. Lucie, Stanley, Paul, Gordon, Fran, Karen, Elton, Andy, Roger, Dr. Don, Judy and so many others, thank you from my heart for your help and guidance everyday of the year. We are blessed indeed! Merry Christmas and peace be always with you all! Margy
One statement in Stanley's email gave me pause: >The Index for The First Families of Louisiana lists several Baptiste [aka >Jean Baptiste, La Baptiste] arrivals, including Magdeleine Baptiste. I don't >have volume II so I can't check Madgeleine. > Am I interpreting this correctly, that this entry would give information on Magdelaine's arrival in Louisiana? I haven't seen this information... if anyone has access to First Families vol. 2, would you mind doing a quick lookup? thanks Gordon
Stanley, Fran, Don, and Paul... Thanks so much for your responses to my email regarding the origins of Magdelaine Baptiste who m. Jean-Baptiste Montpierre. What you sent confirms what I thought... and for now the alleged Native origins of Magdelaine will remain an intriguing, but (thus far) unsupported hypothesis. If anyone finds out any more about either of these folks, do let me know... they've been a mystery for some years. cheers, Gordon
At this time of year I think a lot of us take a moment to stop and think about how important our family & friends are... the people on this list are both for me... this has been a difficult year for many of us, in many ways, but now at the end of the 2005 I wanted to take a moment to tell all of you how privileged I feel to be part of this list. Not only the genealogical assitance, but the warmth and support in other ways, are things I have to be very thankful for this year. I just want to wish all of you, and your families and friends, a Merry Christmas, a Happy Hanukkah, a Happy Holiday... whatever greeting you use, and whatever traditions you choose... I wish the very best for all of you, for the end of 2005 and in the new year to come. with love your cousin, Gordon Bonnet Trumansburg NY
