I just found in the Marriages and Family Relationships of NO (1820-1830) a listing in the records of the Notary Marc Lafitte listed as follows: Vol 2, Pg 27 - Donation m. Jean Baptiste Lafonta to Suzanne Hepp dau nat Norma (?) Philippe How do I get my hands on those papers? Who would I send to? another quick question: "nat", does that indicate that Jean and Suzanne were NOT married, as I have suspected. I see "leg" which I assume means legitimate, right?
