Author: rebornblessed Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.louisiana.parishes.avoyelles/1086/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Greetings, I administer the Degruy@Rootsweb list. We've been thinking that perhaps if we submit a list of some of the families allied to our Degruys, we might find researchers "out there" who might be interested in sharing research on some of these names. So below you will find a list of some of our related names. We are limiting this to our Louisiana [and maybe a couple of Mobile] names. We're not listing the European connections. If anyone wants to respond, here are some options: you could join the Degruy list and submit your contributions and queries to the list. That would make sense if you have a lot of interconnections. If not, you could respond to me at the following address and I will then submit your email to the Degruy list and ask anyone relevant to your research to contact you. If you do this please use this email: listadministratordegruyl@earthlink.net This is an "experiment." We'll just have to take it step by step and see how it goes. Thanks for any participation. Renee Here are some of our names: Arroyo Aufrere Autin Babin Bachemin Badou Bailly Basse Baudean Baudier Bayard Beebe Bel Belsome Berard Bienvenu Bobe Bodin Boisblanc Bonneval Bourgeois Bourgogne Boutte Bouvier Brandon Breaux Bretton Brown Dorgenois Broussard Brown Cabiro Carel Caricabere Cassard Casterade Cavaroc Cazenavette Celestin Champagne Chapron Charbonnet Chauvin Chevalier Coignard Cooper Couturier Cressy Cunningham Daiz Dauterive Decuir De Gruy Degruy Degruise DeLaCroix Delery Delpit Delvaille DeMonberault DePigny Derbes Descloseaux Desmare Dias Dufouchard Duplantier Dupont dit le Kintrek Durel Durand Edy Falgout Faust Fazende Ferrandou Forno Forstall Fortier Foucher Gaiennie Ganucheau Garic Gaudet Giguel Glapion Gonsoulin Gubler Guidroz Guerin Guidry Guillemot dit La Lande Harang Hepp Herzog Heyl Hoerner Hotard Huxelle Jacquet Judice Junqua Lacour LaCourse Laissard/Layssard Lalande LaLoire LeBlanc!

Author: ctchar225 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.louisiana.parishes.avoyelles/1081.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hi, I have a little info on the family of James and Ida Randolph. First of all, James Monroe Randolph was born ca 1869 in LA rather than 1871. I found him on the 1870 census in Sabine Parish [Many Post Office]. His mother, Mary, was a widow and there were three other children in the household. They were...Mary J. [ca 1857 LA], Luvina A. [ca 1862 TX] and John G. [ca 1864 TX]. In 1860 I found the family in Rusk Co., TX, - Mt. Enterprise Post Office. The father was John G.[ca 1830 Tennessee], the mother was Mary A. [ca 1837 LA] and the children were...Margaret E. or Martha [ca 1852 TN], Samuel E. [ca 1855 LA] and Mary J. [ca 1858 LA]. It is more than likely that Mary was the second wife of John and that the two older children were from the first marriage. In 1870, these two children were in a household near the family. In 1880 the family was in Sabine Parish. In the household were Mary A. [49, LA MA GA], John [15, TX TN LA] and James M. [11, LA TN LA]. By 1900, James and Ida Mitche! ll were married and living in St. Landry Parish. They had three of the four children you mentioned in your post. The other girl must have been born after 1900. In 1910, I did not find any members of the James Randolph family. In 1920 [Allen Parish] and 1930 [Vernon Parish], I found Robert Lee Randolph and his family. His wife was Josette [ca 1891]and his three children were...Vernon [ca 1916], Helen [ca 1918] and Vera [1920]. In 1900 and 1910 I found the families of John G. Randolph [ca 1864] and Samuel E. Randolph [ca 1855]. John had 4 children and Samuel had at least 10 children. They were all in Sabine Parish. In 1910, I found what looks like Ida Garner [Ida Randolph], bn ca 1872. But, as of now, I can't make any sense of it. If you need more details on the census records, I can furnish that to you. I hope that this info helps in your research.
