Hello Jeanette, I'm not sure if there are many people on this list who might be able to help with Haiti, except for Augusta Elmwood in New Orleans; I hope she is still on the list. There may be others though. Howver there is a French Caribbean list (ghcaraibe) [Augusta is on it too!] and many of the subscribers are amazingly knowledgeable about French Caribbean & French records. I would tell you now how to subscribe if only I could remember the proper details! Anyone else have the subscription info for that French List? It might be this: '[email protected]' Ernest M. Wiltshire P.S. I hope Marie Claire didn't really live to be 170 years old! Was her death year perhaps 1762? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Thursday, December 13, 2007 8:37 PM To: [email protected] Subject: MARCHESSEAU IN HAITI Hi Listers. Anyone have any information on Francois Marchesseau (Francois and Angelique Lesperance) from France to Haiti? I understand his daughter, Marie Claire Marchesseau was born about 1692 In Petit-Goave, Haiti and died in 1862 in Verette, Haiti. She married Jean Bernard, born 1685 in Blois, France and died 1726 in Verette, Haiti. I have only one child for this couple: Claude Bernard, born 16 Jan 1720 in Verette, Haiti. Does anyone know where he came from in France and why? God Bless, Jeanette No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
