Biography

He married Genevieve Rosalie Daspit St. Amand on 28 Feb. 1778 at St. Louis Church in New Orleans.^[1]

After Genevieve died, he married Eleonore Bossie on 21 Oct. 1789 in Edgard.^[2] It appears that many of his siblings wed Bossie daughters.

On October 8, 1794 he, his mother and all of his siblings, namely Noel, Joseph, Alexis, Pierre, Charles, and Mariane signed an agreement that they had all been treated equally in the divisions of the property that she "abandoned" to them.^[3]

His probate file, available at ancestry.com, shows that he wrote his last will and testament on 21 Jan 1817 and died sometime before 30 Mar 1818. His brother, Charles, and his two sons Alphonse (III?) and Droisin were appointed executors in the will. Some of the documents are in French, so I am unable to make them out.^[4]
