West Indies families to LA
I'm researching several families that came to LA from the French West Indies, any help will be appreciated.No real proof on this family: Francois Saint Martin md 1823 Gosier, WI to Anne Louis Brun. they had Cecile Dorcelia b c 1828/29 Pointe-A-Pitre, WI md Jules C. de la Moriniere Sr, she d 1856 Basse-Terre, Guadeloupe, WI in childbirth.They had 2 sons (1)Jules Joseph Codet dela Moriniere b 1855 Bssse-Terre md Sophie M. Arnoult in NO, LA. he died 1823 Houston, TX. (2) Emmanul Codet dela Moriniere b 1856 he d 1930 LA, he was a Catholic Priest.On the 1880 Galveston, TX census living with Jules & Sophie were widowed aunt Eveline Guadot age 60 b WI and aunt Euphrasia Marie age 48 b WI.I have found that Eveline's husband was Jules Edward Guadot, but can find on other information on either woman.
Jules Codet de la Moriniere Sr is said to be the son of Jean Joseph Theopile Codet dela Moriniere b c 1785 Nantes, France and Marie Jeanne Julie Dupre b c 1792 Pointe-A-Pitre, WI they had twins Marie Gabrielle Adolphine & Francois Marie Adolphine b 1822 in WI and Jules b 1839 LeMoule, WIAll sons in the dela Moriniere line carry the name Codet before the dela Moriniere, I beleive that was the correct surname in France, but no proof.
Any help on these lines will be greatly appreciated.
