Lesueur family of Madison and Marengo Co., AL
To All:
I'm trying to find out more on this Lesueur family and this is what I have found to date:
Napoleon B. Liseour and Elvira Cottrell6 Apr 1835 Madison Co., AL
N.B. Leisure and Elmira Cottrell6 Apr 1835 Madison Co., AL
N.B. Leisure and Elmira Cottrell6 Apr 1837 Madison Co., ALVol. 4 Page 247
Napoleon B. Lesener and Elmira Cotrell6 Apr 1835 Madison Co., AL
I think the individuals above are all the same, just have one different date and variations in the surname.
From census records this is what I have found.

I think the Napoleon Lessenenr and N.B. Lesuiur are the same person and the person/persons that married in Madison Co., AL.
I'm not certain why the name of the wife is Penelope or P.N. or P. H. maybe she is a second wife. However, I can't find any other marriage for Napoleon B. under any spelling variation of his surname.
Napoleon Lessenenr/Lesuiur and eventually Leseuere might be the son of a Littleberry Lesaure who married a Penelope King on 7 Jan 1813 in Madsion Co., AL listed in Volume 1 Page 86.
The daughter Mary L. Lesuiur and Mary Leseuere could this person:
Mary Lesueur married a Lilburn S. Fox on 15 Dec 1874 in Marengo Co., AL
I think this is the family:
1880 Federal Census

If anyone on the forum has any kind of information about these people, I would appreciate being contacted.
