Valentine Dubroca married Marie Martha
Fievre (Favre) From the internet here is there family.
to Louis Valentin Dubroca, (1734-1799), a native of Bordeaux, France, who was appointed in the 1750s as the "Garde Magasin du Roi" (storekeeper) at Ft. Tombecbe, north of Mobile. In 1764, as a result of the French and Indian War, he is shown as turning the fort's stores over to the English. Afterwards he became a large landholder and distinguished citizen under the British and, later, the Spanish regimes. In 1759 he married Marie Marthe Fievre, whose father, Etienne Fievre, was a carpenter in early Mobile. Louis and Marthe had ten children - Marie Marthe, Valentin, Louis Joseph, Francois, Bernard Maurice, Rose, Eugene, Jean Baptiste, Maximillian, and Hilaire; all but Bernard Maurice became established in the vicinity of Mobile
Isabelle Narbone was the wife of Joseph Campbell, Peter Troillett and
had a child with John Forbes. Her mother was Marie Anne Krebs. Her
daughter Heloise Isabelle was the wife of James Innearity.
According to online genealogy, Alexis
Troillett was the illegitmate mulatto son of Pierre/Peter Troilett.
Peter Troillet was a son of Marguerite
Rochon.
The Rochon family come from Charles
Rochon and Henriette Colon. Her brother Henri Colon (Collin) was also
in mobile. Marguerite Rochon Troillett was the Aunt of Marie Louisa
Favre's husband also named Augustine Rochon (Sr).
The Favre's, Jean and Etienne were
early settlers. Marie Martha and Marie Louisa Fievre are both the
children of Etienne (Steven) Fievre (I think it's Favre) and his wife
was Marie Grise.

Among them, McGirth, Jones, mcCarty, Sam Smith, Dixon Bailey and his two brothers, Mims and his family, Capt Melton, John Randall (Randon) and all his family except Peter Durant and one of his daughters, all killed.

Another letter names the child as Vicy Randall (Randon) who was with Peter Durant and was not in the fort.

I was told that Samuel Mims wife, Hannah was in Mobile at time of Fort Mims Massacre.. She had several of her children with her. Hannah (or Anna) was sister of Cornelius Rain. Their mother, Margaret Lucas first married Cornelius Rain Sr in Georgia. 2nd married Moses Moore in Spanish West Florida (1789) and last husband was John Linder Sr.
ReplyDeleteDaniel Johnston who married Elizabeth Linder was killed by Creeks in Jan 1816.
Survivor of Ft Mims, Elizabeth Randon who was 4 yrs old at the time, Married James Alger Newman in Mississippi. After his death in 1854. She went to Texas with her children. She died in Ft. Bend County TX abt 1866.
That is correct, Hannah and some of Samuel's children weren't at the fort.

DeleteTruly - a genealogy addict. GREAT stuff.
ReplyDeleteSurviving slaves would not be on tax lists; nor would members of the Creek Nation.
ReplyDeleteSince Mary Dyer and the Stiggins are listed, as is Peter Randon, not true. I never talked about the slaves because we don't have names for them
Deletethat's the problem, disinterest in slaves because you lack names is no reason not to include their numbers -- dyer, stiggins, and randon passed for white and were regularly included in tax lists. true creeks did not, such as the durants, or mcgillivrays, the moniacs, or any of the sehoy lineage -- but otherwise a great job
DeleteDo you have any info on Tensaw Creek/metis persons named Robinson? I'm a 7th gen descendent of a white soldier John Rotan who fought in the first Creek war and his Creek/metis wife Sarah Robinson. She seems to have been sister or dau of Richard Robinson (Creek.metis) & his wife Margaret Peggy Bailey (Creek/metis, probably a niece/cousin to Alexander MacGillivray. Peggy was a hero of Ft Mims --saved a group of women piloting them down river to Mobile). Peggy Bailey lost her brothers at Ft Mims. Richard & Peggy moved west afterwards and John and Sarah ultimately settled in the Alabama-Coushatta(Creek) res in Texas. Any Robinson (alternate Robertsons) show up anywhere in your research?
ReplyDeleteexcellent work
ReplyDeleteYou list the source of the 1813 & 1816 census as "Tracking Your Roots" which appears to be an abandoned site. Do you by any chance know the source of these two Census?
ReplyDeleteWhat happened to the Linders after 1800? My gggf was John Linder Jr and gym was Sara Linder Henry (wife of Lemuel)
ReplyDeleteNot seeing any Linders on the rolls
John sold Honeycutt plantation of 5,000 acres and island bounded by Tensaw River on East and Lizard Creek on west of 8,000 acres both in 1811
Thanks
I'm a descendant of several of the Tensaw families - Browning, Cain, Palmer, Johnston, Carpenter, etc. Many of these families moved on from Tensaw right around 1800 to the area between Baton Rouge and Natchez. Although I'm not related to the William Lee in Tensaw, he and several of his inlaws who were in Tensaw - Bates, Breed - also moved over that way. They were originally from Union Co, SC.
