I will join in the fun!! I also have ancestors that lived on St. Philips' street, as follows: 1822 Jane ESNAR, 31 St. Philips Street, FPC (what is that?) 1840-41 Jane ESNARD, 25 St. Philips Street, FPC ( ? again) 1891-92 ESNARD, Clarence 259 St. Philip ESNARD, Peter, 179 St. Philip 1893 & 94 ESNARD, Clarence & Peter at 179 St. Philip Peter is the brother of my gr grandfather, Joseph ESNARD, and Clarence is his son; but I don't know who Jane is!! Since it is such an unusual name, and any and all (except her) ESNARD's are related, I include her just in case! ESNARD originated in Angouleme, France, immigrated to Saint Domingue, escaped there in 1790's to Cuba and Charleston, and my line went to California SOME Associated surnames: PEBARTE, BARBOT, CHARTRAND, DUBOIS, LECHAIS, BATTEY, CHAPLIN, LEBLEUX, and I could go on and on and on.....

Maggee; You certainly have an interesting family. Lots of French (Huguenots ?). FPC is a "Free Person of Color". Charleston had lots of mixed families. My Frank Stillson of 85 St. Philips (1889) was an FPC. Bill MOConqrr@aol.com wrote: > I will join in the fun!!
