Stanley LeBlanc www.thecajuns.com Hi Stanley, Thanks you so much, I neglected to notice that in my file.. My records show that Mathurin was ba. 4 April 1784, Ascension and he died 14 Nov. 1790 at St. Bernard Okay, so that puts her Brigitte in St. Bernard in 1790.. I would really love to know where she was buried. That must be when she got together with Jean Guzman sometime after that and in St. Bernard. My theory is that she is not the Mother of the Jean Guzman that married Marie Candelaria Veillon June 25, 1817, SLC M6, 194. I believe the Jean Guzman that got together with Brigitte Trahan Landry around 1790-1791, was the Jean Guzman that arrived in New Orleans in 1785 aboard that LAmite with his wife, Rose BONNEVE and 2 of their 11 children. I have found documentation where Rose BONNEVIE died in St. Bernard in as BUENAVIDA, ROSE, OCT. 6, 1791, SPOUSE OF JEAN GUSMAN, AGE 50 YEARS, interred SBSB, F1, p10 (St. Bernard Parish, St. Bernard Church)They arrived in New Orleans with only Rosalie Charlotte, born 1765, ba. 3 Oct. 1765 St. Pierre Miquelon and Jean Thomas, born 1783 , ba.. 13 Aug 1783, Chantenay St.. Martin(-Loire-Atl) Fra. Sometime after 1822, the "Jean Guzman' who supposedly is Jean and Brigitte's son, had already married Anne Marie Candelaria Veillon ( in 1817) of St. Bernard Parish and moved his family to Slidell in St. Tammany Parish where the descendants still reside today. The thing is, if Jean is really the son of Jean and Brigitte Trahan, there should be a baptism record or a marriage record as they appear to be very Catholic. At least some sort of record. Since no record can be found, I believe he is the 'Jean Thomas, born 1783 in France, the son of Jean and Rose Bonneve, and that he and Brigida weren't married or at least no record can be found. Any insight at this point will be graciously accepted. Sincerely, Marsha This e-mail was scanned by RAV Antivirus. (www.ravantivirus.com)
