Biography

Philogene Doucet was born 6 May 1870 to Zepherin Doucet and Alida (sometimes Hida) Lavergne.[1] His death certificate incorrectly gives the date as 7 May 1871.[2] Gravestone has May 7 1870.

He married Marie Fruge in 1818 with the civil date being 14 March and the church date 31 May.[3]

They had one child, a son named Jasper, born 1 December 1899[4], who was listed with his parents in the 1900 US Census.[5]

After his first wife died, Philogene remarried to Joasine Reed in 1903[6], likely before September, the month that Joasine turned 16.[7]

He died 17 April 1955 at Memorial Hospital in Fort Stockton, TX where he had been for about eight days, apparently following a stroke.[2]

He is buried in Orange Grove Cemetery, Lake Charles, Calcasieu Parish, Louisisiana. [8]
