Thanks for replying to the message. If you are the granddaughter of Charles Hilaire then you and I are third cousins. My mother, Ollie, is the daughter of Joseph Isnaga Juge, Charles' brother. So I am Isnaga's granddaughter. (Joseph Isnaga always went by the name Isnaga.) Isnaga and Charles' parents were Joseph Antoine Juge and Marie Alice Porche. Charles and Isnaga were two of their 8 children and the only two who did not move to California in the late 40s and early 50s. I have located all the families of the other siblings in California and attended a Juge family reunion there two years ago where I received some information about your family. I understand a Cristobel Juge, who would be your father's sister, lives in CA. Where are the rest of your family? I have been researching my family history for about 10 years or so and like you, find the Juge's quite an interesting group. I must tell you! that I was unaware that all these years there was a branch of our family right there in Baton Rouge. I have a list of Charles Hilaire Juge and Barbara Porche's children from a succession filed in the 19th JDC. And, of course, It lists Joseph Anthony as one of their 8 children. Do you do genealogy? Have you a lot of information. I would love to share info with you. Please email me. By the way, I live in Slidell. Pat
