Volunteered for voyage to Biloxi, Louisiana, New French colony arriving on January 8th, 1721 with up to 88 women aboard the French flute la Baleine. Her birth year of 1706 is calculated from the passenger list created in 1720 when she was 14. [1][2]
She is one of 15 women who left no trace except what is included in the source documents listed below.
Birthdate of bride is calculated from passenger list created in 1720. Death date is entered as 1721 because no information has been found and the assumption is lost at sea or died from illness shortly after arriving unless otherwise sourced.
