My research is centered on the DUPONTs who moved from Echo, La to New Orleans, La, the KELONEs from Echo, and the ancestors of both families. The family and ancestors of MERIL DUPONT and JEFFERSON (or THOMAS) DUPONT are of immediate concern.Meril was apparently a P.O.W. in 1863 and transferred from Butte La Rose to New Orleans.There is almost no information on his parents or their city of origin.Any assistance is appreciated. Patrick KELONE emigrated from Ireland in 1844 via New York.Anyone with information on his ancestry can contact me at the above. My personal ancestry is as follows: 1. Michel KELONE ..Marguerite KELLER 2. Patrick KELONEb.20 Feb 1825, Roscommon County,Ireland ..Pauline JUNEAU b.5 Sep 1831 3. Thomas KELONE b.Apr. 1849 ..Elizabeth GUILLORY b.Apr. 1849 4.
