Ninth Generation


314. François BISSETTE I was born about 1732 in Morel (Québec Province), Canada.1493 Revolutionary War Military service: Pointe Coupee Militia in 1779.1074 He died on 11 February 1780 at the age of 48 in (Pointe Coupée Parish), Louisiana, USA.1075 He was buried on 11 February 1780 in (Pointe Coupée Parish), Louisiana, USA.1,1494 François had his estate in succession on 28 August 1782 in (Pointe Coupée Parish), Louisiana, USA. On this date, an accounting was made by Francois Demouchet to the Bizet minors. The children mentioned were Francois, Louis, Magdelaine and Louison. Each received 106 piastres after paying creditors. Demouchet also stated in the civil document that he purchased the Bizet plantation at 205 piastres, the appraised price. It appears that the original succession or inventory document was dated 18 March 1780 but it appears that it no longer exists.1495 Marie Claude LOUIS dite CHAMPAGNE and François BISSETTE I1075,1391 were married on 14 November 1752 at Saint Charles Borromeo Catholic Church in Destrehan (St. Charles Parish), Louisiana, USA.1493

(Note: After researching the supposed parentage of Francois Bisette, I no longer believe that his parents are Paul Daniel Bisette and Marie Charlotte Judic/Judique dit Recontre. Here is the article I wrote regarding this subject that was published in the September 2014 issue of La Raconteur - the quarterly publication of Le Comite des Archives de la Louisiane. "Who are the parents of Francois Bisette?"
