Research Notes

- 1. On 23 Oct 1685 Pierre Long, his wife, Jeanne Gouiran and daughters Elisabeth and Catherine abjure their faith at La Motte d'Aigues.
- 2. On 31 Oct 1687 Isabeau Longue of La Motte d'Aigues received monetary assistance from the Frankfurt-am-Mein church. Travelling with her were Suzanne Goirand but the relationship between them is unknown.
- 3. Jean le Long, Le Longue-3, were at the Cape before 1685. It is unlikely that Isabeau would have been left behind so he is unlikely to be her father. The names Jean and Marie does not fit the children of Jean Jourdan and Isabeau but Pierre and Jeanne does.
So the sources points to Pierre and Jeanne Gouirand being the parents of Isabeau. Therefore Le_Long-25 has the correct parents. [16]
  • The le Longs in Boucher: "The relationship between the various members of the Le Long family at the Cape cannot yet be fully elucidated. Elisabeth {Le_Longue-2 or Le_Long-25?} was perhaps the sister of Charles and Jean le Long (Le_Longue-3?); Jean had a daughter Marie (Le_Long-2?) and it seems not unlikely that the Jacques le Long who died early in 1707 at the hands of a certain Abraham Jacob was Jean’s son. Jacques le Long is presumably the Jacobus le Long whose name is encountered among the Drakenstein burgher infantry shortly before that date. J.Hoge’s researches have established that Charles le Long came to the United Provinces from the Palatinate, while more recently A.M. Hugo has suggested that Elisabeth might have been the daughter of a Blois attorney Louis le Long and his wife Marie Baignoulx, born in 1653. This possibility is reinforced by Paul de Felice’s assertion that a Pierre Baignoulx preached a sermon at the Cape towards the end of the seventeenth century. On the other hand, the Elisabeth le Long at the Cape would seem to have been a much younger woman. The Le Long emigration is associated with the sailing of the Suijdbeveland from Zeeland on April 22, 1688, the vessel which brought to the Cape the pastor Simond, to be discussed in a later chapter, his wife Anne de Berault and her brother Louis. As the Beraults came from the L’Aigle district in Normandy, perhaps the Le Longs hailed from the same town. The name is known there. However the ship also carried refugees from Dieppe, where a Calvinist servant Jean le Long was living in 1686. Pp120-1" (Boucher.M (1981). French speakers at the Cape: The European Background. Pretoria, UNISA: Ch 5: Cape settlers I: from the Loire to the Channel) [18]

Following these comments on Le_Longue-2, it was decided to disconnect the 'parents' Pierre Le Long (1630) {Le_Long-26} and Jeanne (Gouirian) le Long (abt. 1635) {Gouirian-1} from the profile of Isabeau (Le Long) Jourdan (1668 - 1736) {Le_Long-25}, and to merge her with her duplicate (because of the same spouse) Isabeau (le Longue) Malan (abt. 1668 - 1736) {Le_Longue-2}.

Now the the current 'parents' Jean (le Longue) le Longe (1643 - abt. 1721) and Maria (Cochet) le Longue (1645 - 1721) should be by the same reasoning also be disconnected from the 'child' profile of Isabeau (le Longue) Jourdan (abt. 1668 - 1736).

Hi People - This conflation between Le_Longue-2 and Le_Long-25 has gone on for a long while now. I have not seen any concrete evidence in favor of either (Le Longe / Couchet) or (Le Longe / Gouirian) .

I have just spent 2 solid days looking through all the documentation available, and scouring the French sites with cross eyes over script written French. Other than the prior documented likely place of origin (being La Motte-d'Aigues, Provence, France), and likely arrival on the "Wapen van Alkmaar" and not the "Good Ship China" like her husband Jean Jourdan , I find nothing concrete.

For the sake of sanity in the Wikkie is it not feasible to create a new Isabeau that encompasses the facts to hand, and divorce her from both (undocumented) sets of parents. And when some person finally nails a good birth record in La Motte we can then update accordingly ?

We could just divorce both profiles from the parent profiles and merge the two, if this is what you mean ... (leaving research notes on all profiles accordingly) ...

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm suggesting - From what I saw over the weekend, the various Genealogical sites (Geni & Family search & Wikki tree) are using each other as "Sources" for the parents of this girl. But I don't see anything like a definite "proof" of parent.

In all events to trace her back to le Motte during the very unsettled Europe of around 1650 may prove to be impossible? Especially given that she seems to have kindda travled on her own and not in a family group of de Longe? Yes there is the the other girl whom is proposed as a cousin (Suzanne Goirande) that she is recorded as travelling across Europe with - but no hard answers. So make her stand in her own right and let the parents come as they might!

Le Longue-2 and Le Long-25 appear to represent the same person because: Please consider her estate MOOC8/5.105 which states "den boedel en goederen, schulden en inneschulden, naargelaten en met de dood ontruijmt door Elisabeth le Long, huijsvrouw van den landbouwer Jaques Malan .... de 9 naargelaten kinderen van den overledene als .... voorkinderen bij haar eerste man Jan Jourdaan in huwelijk verwekt..."

The same individual was married to both Jourdaan and Malan.

I was intrigued by
Inventory of Pieter Schordan : 1699-04-04
attached to husband Jean Jordan, and so took effort to go to the LDS site and find the original picture, and the preceding page of this inventory of estate. Unfortunately this adds confusion rather than clarifies things! The transcription given in the biography gives it as the Inventory of "Pieter Schordan" deceased in favor of his "egte huijsvrouw" Isabella Longe. I can accept that Sch may be a corruption of J which would yield Jordan, but the first name in the text and original document are clearly either Pieter or Pierre - and NOT Jean. So did Isabeau shack up with his husbands brother sometime around 1699?
