    3. Looking for Durley Virginia Burson, daughter of Isaac Bartlett Burson. She is said to have been a Sister of Charity, but I do not have a name. It is also said that she managed the Charity Hospital for several years. There was supposed to be a large portrait of her as you entered the old hospital. She died sometime after 1913 as that is the last time I have any information about her interaction with her family in Alabama. She is my grandmother's sister and had my grandmother come to NO for treatment in her final illness.. Any help would be appreciated.

    1. [LAORLEAN] New Orleans Roll Call- BURGESS and WALKER
    2. Lisa Lockett
    3. I am searching for information on Emile E. WALKER, the name he was known by for most of his life.  He was baptized Emile E.N. WALTER, born in New Orleans 14 July 1842.  His mother was Catherine WALTER, his father unknown. Catherine was pregnant with Emile when she immigrated from France. Every census I've found him on he is either WALKER or WEBER, his step-father's name.  He served in the Civil War, as Emile WALKER, married in 1871 as Emile WALKER to Louisa BURGESS. He died 29 July 1886 as Emile WALKER, place of burial unknown but in New Orleans somewhere. Could possibly have been Girod Street Cemetery. Naaman L. BURGESS, born between 1802 and 1810, depending on what census you check, in Massachusetts, possibly Boston.  He was in New Orleans by 1837 as that is when he married Mary Jane RUTAN at the First Congregational Church. Died in New Orleans after  May 1876. His wife, Mary Jane, was buried at Girod Street Cemetery.  Obituary for him is needed. Buried with Mary Jane RUTAN BURGESS at Girod Street Cemetery was an "S. Webb". Still looking for proof of who this person could be.

    3. Nancy, I forgot to add to my last e-mail. I am so impressed by your website "past whispers Old New Orleans". I have it in my favorites and check it out from time to time to see what's new. I love it and so appreciate your keeping it up. Thank you. Julie Hernandez ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nancy" <nancybrister621@bellsouth.net> To: <laorlean@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, March 31, 2008 4:08 PM Subject: Re: [LAORLEAN] McCarty Plantation Hi Julie, I've been doing research on the McCarty family (originally, Macarty) for the Old New Orleans site. And what a history they have. Hope this helps. The land where this McCarty plantation stood was owned by Le Sieur de Bienville in the 1700's, and by the early 1800's, was part of a large sugar plantation owned by Mademoiselle Jeanne de Macarty. Many members of the McCarty family played notable roles in the area's history. They belonged to an aristocratic French family and one of their members married the last Spanish governor of LA. Among the high (and low) spots: One of the McCartys was mayor of N.O., one was LA Secretary of State; one of their plantations was involved in the famous slave revolt conspiracy of the early 1800's; the land that is now Metairie Cemetery belonged to a member of the McCarty family in the 1700's; in the early 1800's, a crevasse in the Mississippi River levee, at the plantation you asked about, was responsible for flooding a wide area of the city and leaving silt that created the luxuriant foliage growth responsible for giving the Garden District its name. And even the infamous and cruel Madame Lalaurie was a member of the family! From: http://nutrias.org/info/louinfo/admins/macarty.htm "Augustin Francois de Macarty who was elected the sixth Mayor of the City of New Orleans on Sept. 4, 1815, was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, January 10, 1774. He was the son of Augustin Guillaume de Macarty and Jeanne Chauvin de Lery, one of the last Spanish governors, Don Estevan Rodriguez Miro. His father, a Chevalier de Saint Louis, was born in New Orleans on May 5, 1745. He married Jeanne Chauvin de Lery, by whom he had two sons, Augustin Francois born in New Orleans January 10, 1774, and Jean Baptiste, also born in New Orleans in 1776. Augustin de Macarty’s son, Lewis Barthelmy Macarty, served as Secretary of State under Governor Claiborne in 1812, another interesting member of this aristocratic family was his aunt, Mademoiselle Jeanne de Macarty, whose vast plantations just above the city, ultimately became the site of the suburban town of Carrollton, and whose fortunes he inherited."

Does anyone know anything about the McCarty Plantation? The only thing I can find is that it was located in what we now know as Carrollton and the house on the plantation eventually became the Court House for the Carrollton. The plantation was annexed to the City of New Orleans in 1833. What I really need to know is who built/owned/lived in the McCarty Plantation. I can find nothing on the McCarty family with regard to the plantation. Any ideas? Julie Hernandez

    1. Re: [LAORLEAN] Theresa STULZ /aka Sister Mary Monica/ Mother Superior -Sisters of Notre Dame - St. Joseph's (German) Orphan Asylum
    2. Julie Campbell Hernandez
    3. Mimi, My grandfather and his siblings were placed in St. Joseph's Orphan Asylum in 1912, after the deaths of both parents. His maternal grandmother could not support them and she placed them herself. I won't go into the details of how many times I spoke to the Archdiocese about the orphanage and how many times no one knew what I was talking about. Until one day, I mentioned that the nuns were of German decent and a light bulb went off in someone's head. The orphanage was torn down in the 1930s to make way for the St. Thomas Housing Project and any children left were sent to Madonna Manor on Barataria Blvd. in Marrero. All records were sent there too! That's where I found the records for my grandfather and his siblings. Coincidently, I live and work in Marrero! This was back in the 80s, but at the time, the director was eager to help me and I have transcribed copies of all records for each child. They may also have records on the nuns/teachers. It's worth a shot! Also, at that time, the school my own children attended was, coincidently, in Marrero, was run by the School Sisters of Notre Dame. I talked to one of the nuns and she gave me the address of their mother house in Dallas (Irving), Texas. I wrote to the Archivist there and she wrote a very nice, long letter about the orphanage (she had been there a short while before its closing) and sent me copied pictures. If I were you, I would contact the SSND in Irving and see what they might be able to tell you about Sister Monica. I'd be glad to send you copies of the pictures of the orphanage. Hope you are as successful as I was!

    3. Thanks, Nancy, for all the great information! It is the Carrollton McCarty family that I'm looking for. My ancestor is Adelaide McCarty who married Azor Raymond Zeringue. I know of two children: Felicite and Michel Raymond. I have a copy of Adelaide's succession and her property was "Faubourg Bouligny in the Parish above the City of Lafayette at the corner of Levee Street and a vacated space above Bobb's Brick Yard". It says it's about 6 miles above New Orleans on the right bank of the Mississippi River. I'll keep looking, but if anyone else has something to add, please let me know.

The archivist is: Sister Suzanne Rene School Sisters of Notre Dame Milwaukee Archives 13105 Watertown Plank Road Elm Grove, WI 53122 While I was talking to her, she looked up material for me on Sister Monica. She said that the materials for New Orleans are now held at: School Sisters of Notre Dame Mississippi Archives Chatawa, MS 39632 That is about an hour and a half north of New Orleans on Interstate 55. The archivist there is: Sister Marie Richard. Their phone is: (601)783-3494. Monica died in New Orleans on 3 Oct 1900. Her records went to St. Louis Province, archivist: Sister Carol Marie.
