Research Notes

Posted by Donna (Friebel) Storz:

What records other than the purported death record show him using the name Louis? I think it far more likely that 1830 death record is for his son Louis who would have been 76 at the time (using his baptism date) -- ages were very often exaggerated in these burial record. I have never seen Jacques called Louis otherwise -- whether in his marriage record or Voorhies census records.

Additionally, I wonder why he isn't mentioned in Kaskaska Manuscripts when discussing his father's death. Only the daughters are mentioned. Was he older and not in need of a guardian? If that's the case could he be (especially considering his marriage records says his mother is Marie) this child referred to in Kaskaskia Manuscripts: 26:5:23:1 Petition to the judge by Jacques Bernard dit St. Jacques of Fort de Chartres requesting that Pierre Hulin claim and support the child born to Hulin and Bernard's wife during Bernard's absence. Followed by Chassin's order to Hulin and Mme. Bernard to appear with the baptismal certificate of the child. Fr. Kereben. (lp. Pub. I. 44/ K400)

An article in Teche News St. Martinville, Louisiana · Wednesday, November 03, 2021 does attribute the 1830 death date to the son Louis Jacques born in 1753.
