Three banns published
Pierre Lorandini, soldier in Marchand's Company, widower2 of Francoise Coilet or Colet, son of Pierre Lorandini and of Marguerite Zabal of Florence, Italy.
Marie Anne Fourchet, widow of Jean (La Case) dit La Douceur, soldier in Marchand's company, daughter of Pierre Fourchet and of Jeanne Brestune (Brusturie? Priestune?)3 of Epernay, Archibishopric of Reims.
Witnesses named: Jacques Branut dit La France,4 sergeant in Marchand's company; Etienne Tessier (Teyssier), sergeant in Latour's company.
Witnesses signing: (Jacques) Branut (dit La France), husband of Marie Clere LeClere. (If Etienne Teyssier signed, it has faded to invisibility.)
1. The year 1726 is used in brackets because 1720 was an error of omission by the priest. Neither the bride nor the groom were widowed in 1720. Lacase's daughter, Marie Jeanne, was born in March 1726; Lorandini's child, born in 1725, was a daughter of his first marriage.
2. The priest erroneously used feminine forms ("Veufve"; "fille") in referring to the groom.
3. The Loradini groom's mother was recorded as Anne Mare Criolet in 1735 (Mob. mb I:10), and as marie Francoise Coquerelle on a ship list (Conrad, First Families, I, 52).
4. The signature of Jacques Branut appears to end with a "d" but could as weel be a "t". See also Deville, G C C, 24.

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Marie Anne by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
Mitochondrial DNA test-takers in the direct maternal line:
There appears to be an issue with the marriages of Pierre LORANDINE/LORANDINI. The marriage to Marie Francoise COQUERELLE should be from 1719 until before June 1726. In June 1726, Pierre married Marie FOUCHER; see Jacqueline Olivier Vidrine, Love's Legacy (Center for Louisiana Studies, University of Southwestern Louisiana, 1985), p. 45.
When this change is made, then it becomes clear that Marie Louise LAURENDINE should be the daughter of Pierre with Marie FOUCHER, not as given where she is the daughter of Pierre with Marie Francoise COQUERELLE.
I have attached Catherine LORENDINI (Lorendini-1) who married Pierre COUILLERET as the daughter of Pierre LORANDINI and Marie Francoise COQUERELLE.
