MISC INFO/PHOTOS

Baptised on Jan. 27, 1793 at the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Mobile, Father Constantine McKenna officiating. Godparents were John Joyce, apparently her uncle by marriage, and Clara Rochon, probably her aunt.

Irene Francoise Broutin moved to New Orleans with her family as a child.

Louis Jacques Barbin and Irene Francoise Broutin entered into a marriage contract on April 20, 1812. The contract, which was written in French, is filed with the other notarial papers of Pierre Pedesclaux in the New Orleans Notarial Archives, Civil Courts Building (Vol. 64 page 223). It makes it clear that both of Louis Jacques and Irene Francoise came from prosperous families. They also married April 20, 1812 at St. Louis Cathedral, New Orleans. The marriage record is in Spanish, his name is given as Luis Santiago.

The family home was located on the northern edge of Marksville where the highway leads out toward the Red River.

Also recorded with the Barbin family in 1830 were five slaves: two male slaves, 10-23; one female slave, 24-35; and two male slaves, 55-99.

After the death of Louis Jacques Barbin, Francoise Irene Broutin, at the age of 40, married Eugene Jean Baptiste Cailleteau on Feb. 23, 1833.

Also recorded in the Cailleteau household in 1850 were seven "free colored persons"- one male under 10, two females 10-20, two males 24-35, and one male 36-54-and four slaves- one male under 10, 1 male 10-23, and one male and one female 24-35.

Eugene Cailleteau died before Dec 24 1844 because Francoise Irene was identified as the "widow Cailleteau" when her daughter, Octavie, married on that date.

The Cailleteau family was recorded in the north township of Avoyelles Parish in the Sept. 19, 1850 census (Avoyelles 129B):
