Hello, My name is Marta Elena Gasper and this is my first post to the list; I would be very thankful if the following could be located; Dominiquette ABADIE b. 5/25/1844 in Lubret St-Luc, Midi Pyrenees, France. Her passport to New Orleans was dated 9/18/1866. In 1876 she was residing with her husband Pierre COURTADE in New Orleans, Orleans county, LA as of the last information her relatives in France received. I'm helping a French friend to corroborate the above as in our searches we hadn't had positive results. I believe in the 1880 LA census maybe? Please tell me if I have been vague or confusing; these are the only data I posess to work with, don't know if it is enough to do a look up. >From experience_ there were others from the same town, etc_ most stayed during their lifetime in Orleans county, their children were baptized either in Orleans or Plaquemines parrish. Thank-you very much to all volunteers and everybody that works for others Happy Holidays, Marta Elena in Nebraska --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.
