JUDIQUE/JUDITH/JULIE BROUSSARD married 1st JEAN BAPTISTE JEANSONNE, son of CHARLES JEANSONNE II and MARIE ROSE BRASSEAUX, born Sept 28, 1783 in St. Landry Parish, LA, died before Aug 8, 1817 in Avoyelles Parish, LA. Married 1808 in Avoyelles Parish, LA.

Judith's birth date on this profile of 1784 is unsourced, but may have been estimated by adding 1 year to spouse Jean Baptiste Jeansonne's birth in 1783. Now that a death record has been found showing her to be 80 years old in 1857, perhaps a birth estimate of 1777 should be used. Admittedly, an age of 80 years may well be an estimate as well, but for now it's all we have.

The following marriage source on Family Search gives Judith's parents as Louis Broussard and Marguerite Ledée. See discussion on the profile of Marguerite Benoit about this name, which was apparently the surname of Marguerite's step-father.
