Biography

LOUIS AUGUSTUS TARTERON DE LABEAUME,

was born in Vigan, province of Languedoc, France, about the year 1766, and was married when a young man to Adelaide Duteraple, about the year 1787, who bore him three children, and died in France, a young woman. About the year 1792, after France had adopted her Repulilican constitution, Mr. Labeaurae left France with his two young children, Marie Louise Lucille, born about 1788, and Pierre A.uguste, about 1790, leaving the third, an infant, and came to St. Louis, where he spent the balance of his life.

On June 8, 1797, Mr. Labeanme married his second wife, Susanne, the third daughter of Louis Chauvet Dubreuil, deceased, by whom he had four sons: Louis Alexandre, Theodore, Louis Tarteron and Charles Edmond, and three daughters, Eleanor Olympe, who died young from an accident, Susan Clarrissa, and Eugenie.

On May 8, 1804, Mr. Labeaume purchased from a Jno. B. Paquet a piece of land of 4 by 40 arpents 160, lying about live miles north of the village, on the road to old Fort Bellefontaine, and now forming a part of Bellefontuine Cemetery. On this land he built a house of logs (which has only been removed within these last few years) ; here he resided until his death, January 4, 1821, leaving eight children, and here his youngest children were born.^[1]
