Hello Again, From the Archives of Notre Dame comes the following: [Parents established by the following petition:] I hope this helps someone else. Thanks to my friend Matt for reminiding me about this resource. AS 1796 Feb. 16 Godain, Edwardo Documents concerning the petition of Edwardo Godain for a dispensation from the diriment impediment of consanguinity in the third degree, equal, with Magdalena Landry. -------- 1796 Feb. (?) Godain, Edward (La Fourche) to Bishop Penalver y Cardenas, (New Orleans) [1.] Edwardo Godain of the parish of La Fourche notifies the Bishop that he desires to marry Magdalena Landry of the same parish, but that he cannot do so because of the diriment impediment that exists between them. He asks, accordingly, the Bishop to order that information be accepted about the following points. [2.] Edwardo Godain set forth these points as follows: (a) That he is the legitimate son of Jose Goden and Genoveva Landry; that Genoveva Landry, Edwardo's mother, is the legitimate daughter of Alexandro Landry and Margarita Blancar; that Alexandro Landry is the legitimate son of German Landry and Margarita Melanzon. (b) That Magdalena Landry, his intended wife, is the legitimate daughter of Simon Landry and Margarita Baden; that Simon Landry is the legitimate son of German Baben and Margarita Landry; that Margarita Landry is the legitimate daughter of German Landry and Margarita Melanzon, from which results the impediment of consanguinity in the third degree, equal. (c) That his intended wife lost her father, and her mother is very poor so that if their marriage does not take place, she would be exposed to other ends. [3.] That since these facts are considered sufficient, Edwardo Godain begs the Bishop to grant them this dispensation and that the Pastor of La Fourche may marry them in the usual form. To this is added a decree by the Bishop ordering that the information be received, the witnesses appear and the results brought in. Signed by the Bishop. To this is added a note by Rivas certifying that the above decree was issued and signed by the Bishop on Feb. 12, 1796. To this another note is added by Rivas certifying that on the same day he notified Eduardo Godain of the above decree. -------- 1796 Feb. 12 Rivas, Dr. Joseph Maria de (New Orleans) Rivas certifies: [1.] That Eduardo Godain appeared before him, and, under oath, answered the questions asked as follows: [2.]( a) That his name is Eduardo Godain from the parish of La Fourche. (b) That he is the legitimate son of Jose Goden and Genoveva Landry; (c.) That he is 26 years old, unmarried and engaged only to Magdalena Landry from the same parish and (d.) That he knows of no other impediment. [3.] That all he said is the truth. Signed by Edouard(?) Godain and notarized by Rivas. Immediately appeared Simon Leblanc, a witness presented by Eduardo Godain, who, under oath, witnessed to the truth of the points set forth by the latter in his petition to the Bishop. He swore also that he is 25 years old. Signed by Simon Leblanc and notarized by Rivas. Immediately appeared Luis Moller, another witness presented by Eduardo Godain from whom Rivas received sworn testimony to the truth of the same points witnessed by Simon Leblanc. He swore also that he is 26 years old. Signed by Luis Moller and notarized by Rivas. -------- 1796 Feb. 16 Penalver y Cardenas, Luis Bishop (New Orleans) The Bishop decrees: [1.] That having examined the documents concerning Eduardo Godain petition for a dispensation to marry Magdalena Landry, he dispenses them from the impediment of consanguinity, and considers as legitimate any children they may have. [2.] Moreover, that the parties must cease living under the same roof so that they may restore with their example all they have destroyed by their scandal. [3.] Moreover, in order to absolve them from their fault, that Eduardo Godain should bring to the Bishop's secretaryship 25 bulls "de Vivos"; that, during two months before the marriage, they must be present in the church on every holyday, praying during the High Mass the rosary of the Most Holy Mary; that, during the same space of time, they must daily pray the same rosary in particular. [4.] Finally, that information be sent to the Pastor of LaFourche to marry them in the usual form. uisiana and witnessed by Rivas.

Morning Again, Original Post: In this record, [ASC-2, 69] Edouard GAUDIN [also written as Landry Edouard] [parents not given] married 27 Jun 1796 Marie Magdelena LANDRY, widow of Baptiste LANDRY [parents not given]. Marriage witnesses were Joseph Ephrem Landry & Joseph Nicolas Landry. [DOBR, v.2, p. 310]. As a followup, I did find that the parents of Edouard were Joseph [dit Lanccour] & Genevieve LANDRY and that the parents of Marie Magdelena LANDRY were Joseph Simon LANDRY & Anne Marguerite BABIN. Source: The Marriage Dispensations of Louisiana published by Shirley Chiasson Bourguard. Would anyone have a copy of this publication and could verify the parents? Thanks Andy Scott

while it isn't proof, there are/were several Indians, Mi'kmaq, and Abenaki, who took the name Baptist. I think it is safe to assume that that would also apply to the Cree and other Native groups that became baptised. Often it had been the name of the mother's father or oldest brother. The woman used it as a last name , and for family identification for the Church and census. Fran Wilcox

This question is really outside of the purview of the Acadian list -- hope no one minds. My recent posts about the alleged Native ancestry of the Morvant family of Louisiana spurred an email out of the blue to me from a distant cousin, who made the statement, "did you know that another line in our ancestry has Native blood." He further stated that Magdelaine Baptiste, wife of (1) Francois Sancie or Sensie (or Saucier or any number of other spellings) and (2) Jean-Baptiste Montpierre, was Native. I asked him what his proof was. He didn't have proof, but stated as evidence that (1) Magdelaine and Francois' children were all born in the Arkansas Post, in what was at that time wilderness occupied by a few French and a lot of Natives, and that (2) she doesn't have a "real French surname" -- that Baptiste was a name adopted by Natives and (following the Civil War) freed slaves. First, and primarily so I don't get blasted for posting this :-) let me say that I don't consider this proof of any sort. However, he did have an interesting point, and it was something I hadn't considered. Francois Sancie (or however his name is spelled) came over single; and I would expect that there _were_ very few single women in that area of Louisiana at that point (the early 1730s) except for the Natives. And I will admit that Baptiste is an unusual surname. So, OK, considering his hypothesis on its merits, let me ask wiser heads than my own: is Baptiste a "real" French surname, or is it (as my cousin suggests) an adopted name only? Are there records which might help prove (or more likely, disprove) this theory? I can't help but think that my Morvant posts have opened up a can of worms -- I guess a lot of people would like to have Native ancestry. Me, I just want the truth... Any advice? cheers, Gordon Bonnet Trumansburg NY

Gordon, 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. There are also several Saucier entries, including Francois.

Greetings All, I have that the parents of Pie Isidore LANDRY who married 26 Jan 1835 in Ascension Parish, La. [ASC-7, 116] was the son of Joseph Simon LANDRY & Marguerite BABIN. I found on line that the parents of Joseph Simon LANDRY were Abraham (Petit Abraham) [Abraham & Marie GUILBEAU] & Elizabeth LeBLANC [Charles & Marie GAUTROT] of Acadia, and that the parents of Marguerite BABIN were Joseph Olivier BABIN (Jean Baptiste & Ursule LANDRY) & Osite LEBLANC (Jacques LeBLANC & Catherine FOREST. Can anyone verify the parents shown above? Thanks Andy Scott

Gordon, I recently used Tanguay to trace my French-Canadian lines. In doing, I noticed that Morvant was a French-Canadian line. Baptiste was a French surname so was Saucier. There were probably only soldiers in the very early days of the Arkansas Post and some probably did have Indian wives. By the 1730s, there were French women and families at the Arkansas Post. The big wave of women, families came between 1718-1721.

Mary Jo It is not on my map The ones I have in that area Start in White Castle on LA 1 between Francis St & Doc Dean St is an unidentified Cemetery Continue on LA1 to Hwy 69 / Bowie St. Left 1/2 mile to Moss St. Right to Our Lady of Prompt Sussor Cemetery The next street back from Moss is Church St. I would check it out for inactive ones. Continue heading toward River until LA 1. Left than less than 2 miles to St John Baptiste Cemetery in Dorseyville. Take Lacroix Rd to River Road Hwy 69/405. Left about one mile upriver is Nottoway Plantation. They may have one. Continue on River road about 2-1/2 miles to Church street in Bayou Goula ******* This is most likely places ****** no identification other than street name. Go back to where Hwy 69 / Augusta Rd leaves River road about 3 miles to an unidentified one and a little further on St Mary's Cemetery. Back to River Road / Hwy 405. Go upriver about 5 miles to Point Pleasant & St Raphael Cemetery. That's all I have on my map.
