According to the synopsis provided in Corinne Saucier's book entitled "History of Avoyelles Parish, Louisiana", a subsequent document regarding this issue was a "request by Will Lemoine against Jacques Gaignard, who had previously accused him of strking him, but Lemoine says he was at home at the time and working for Koudany. Mr. Gaignard, he says, likes to drink, and it is entirely possible that he fell off his horse and bruised his body and wants to accuse him of having hurt him". On 19 March 1796 in (Avoyelles Parish), Louisiana, USA, Bellony Chatelain sold to Guillaume Lemoine "one-half of land" (one-half arpent?).

He was buried in the old Hydropolis Cemetery (along with most of the original settlers of Avoyelles) which is believed to have been right behind (and under) the existing mausoleum at St. Paul's Cemetery. The graves, however, are no longer marked. In the early 1950s, St. Paul's Monsignor Michael P. Nothofer, supposedly, had been suffering with a severe illness (possibly cancer) and, as a result, terribly neglected the St. Paul's cemetery.

Many of the tombstones were carried away and used as sidewalks. 1058 Marie Barbe Amable COUVILLION and Guillaume LEMOINE251,842 were married on 27 June 1795 at St. Joseph in Baton Rouge (East Baton Rouge Parish), Louisiana, USA.1167 They1167 appeared in the census in 1810 in (Avoyelles Parish), Louisiana, USA.
