Notes
a. Note:   bly. Here is a link to information about Eleonore:
 http://www.appl-lachaise.net/appl/article.php3?id_article=2392
 and here is the link to see the house that Jean bought before he married:
 https://www.google.com/maps/place/Rue+Henri+de+Toulouse+Lautrec/@@43.926603,2.143688,3a,75y,244.48h,90t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sVxrrMhzc5UoYmVdNxmVM_Q!2e0!4m2!3m1!1s0x12adc2aa6ecb8f7d:0x9eab0c45ee9ba7f8!6m1!1e1
 And we have the earliest mention of Jean in New orleans is 1812 for 3rd regiment of the Louisiana General Militia. He is a corporal but leaves as a private. Possibly 1809 if a military record for a someone fitting his information but listed as Gaspard Laperouse who also was a corporal but requested demotion to private. Also looking for he and Antoinette's marriage record. He appears as Jean Baptiste Lapeyrouse in 1822 is living near the forks of Bayou Road and is a goldsmith. In November 1823, his wife dies "on The road T "Bayou St John" and he subsequently leaves New Orleans with his three children for a new life. Jean marries Constance Henry From St. Martinville and locates to the Terre Bonne Parish as one of Houma's founding families with Barrow, Belanger, and Malbrough as neighbors and in the 1830 census he first appears in there, his daughter Marie lives with them and his two sons Eugene and Hermogene with Constance. His son Louis Edmond chooses to stay in St. Martinville while Severin chooses to locate to Chauvin. According to the 1822 New Orleans City Directory which the transcription lists him as "John" the next earliest transcription are 1811 and 1805 and neither lists a lapeyrouse. Files.usgwarchives.net/la/Orleans/history/directory/1822addr.txt same archives the 1823 is incomplete and by 1824 he has disappeared from New Orleans. Land records place him in Terrebonne parish. He and his second wife Constance die in 1845 just a few months apart.

Note:   I am pretty certain the story I heard as a child about our family descending from one of two illegitimate children of the explorer lapeyrouse are incorrect. Could our family be related some way? Possi
