"Parents of the Talon children, Lucien and Isabelle Planteau of Paris, are thought to have been married in Quebec, Canada. Lucien was a carpenter by trade. It was in Canada that Isabelle gave birth to four children: Marie-Elizabeth in 1672, Marie-Madeline in 1673, Pierre in 1676, and Jean-Baptiste in 1679. Another son, Lucien, was born either in Canada or in France, where the family arrived just before joining the René-Robert Cavelier de La Salle expedition destined for the Gulf of Mexico. They left France in August of 1684. Isabelle Talon was already pregnant, and the child, Robert, was born during the voyage. Lucien Talon (the father) was lost in the woods in 1685. The eldest Talon child, Marie-Elizabeth, died of disease in 1686.

In January of 1687, with the colony struggling, La Salle placed the oldest Talon child, Pierre, and a few other colonists with the Hasinai (Tejas) native group. He hoped that Pierre and the others would learn the language and customs of the Hasinais in order to create friendly ties for the colony. In 1688, Fort St. Louis was attacked. Isabel Talon was killed, and the four remaining children were taken captive by the Karankawas." [7]

not really a notable, might fit under Louisiana project, since after he left the Canada colony to go back to France he appears to have gone there.
