Hi Joan-
Welcome to the family! Lots of information about all the branches of this HUGE family if you join the UBGGA (Urbain Baudreau Graveline Genealogical Association). Contact them at PO Box 905, Palmer, Massachusetts 01069 to become a member.
This info is from Les Descendants magazine, the newsletter we receive, Vol 11, # 2 from Autumn 1990.
Gabriel was the oldest son of Urbain Baudreau dit Graveline and his wife Mathurine Juillet. They list his birthdate as the 25th of July, rather than the 24th.
On 8/15/1701, Gabriel married Marie-Catherine Forestier. They became the parents of 5 children: all but the last born in Montreal.
1. Marie Catherine b.6-2-1702 d. 3-23-1703
2. Marie-Catherine b. 2-23-1704
3. Gilbert b. 11-12-1705 d. 1-2-1707
4. Marie Josephe b. 9-8-1707
5. Marie-Louise b. 11-24-1708 Detroit (as parents were on their way from Montreal to Louisiana Territory)
Apparently, Gabriel and his wife, Marie Catherine, both died in Louisiana between 1711 and 1713. They may have died in Mobile or New Orleans, because they traveled constantly up and down the river.
They had left their daughter Marie Josephe (Josette) in the care of Gabriel's mother. She eventually asked for court permission to sell land belonging to Gabriel and his wife to care for her.
Daughter Marie Catherine was married in 1718 in Mobile area to Etienne Langlois, an officer in the military troops of France who were sent to the colony to protect settlers. He was later sent to Kaskaskia (in Illinois, near St. Louis), taking his wife and children. Youngest child, Perinne, was born in Kaskaskia in 1734. Etienne killed by Indians in 1736.
One daughter of Etienne and Marie Catherine's, Marie-Louise, was married in 1740 to Pierre Messager
Children of Marie Catherine (oldest daughter of Gabriel) and Etienne Langlois, included Augustin, Francois (m. Louis Wiltz), Gerard (m. Marie Ann Dubois), Louis, Marie Joachim (Jeanne) (m. Louis de Populus), Marie-Louise (m. Pierre Messager), Perrine (m. Michel Forter 1750 in New Orleans).
Marie Catherine (oldest) managed her husband Etienne's business after his death. In 1737 or 1738, she married Urbain Gervais. He died in 1740. No children. Following Urbain's death, Marie-Catherine seems to have moved to New Orleans. She died there in 1747.
Gabriels' youngest daughter, Marie-Louise, married Augustin Langlois, brother of Etienne, either at Mobile or Kaskaskia around 1724. Their children included:
1. Felicite Langlois (m. Simon Goulin)
2. Marie-Louise Langlois (m. 1. Simon Gautier 2. Joseph Liberville dit Joson
3. Pierre Langlois (m. 7-29-1765 Marie-Catherine LaBruyere)
4. Marie Joseph Langlois (m. 1749 Francois MArie Gilbert sans Peur)
In 1758, Marie Louise, a widow, married Antoine Pilet dit La Sonde. They lived at Prairie du Rocher near Kaskaskia.
Phew! Sorry kind of long. I paraphrased because this is very long. The newsletters are real goldmines of information. I hope you can join!
As you may or may not know, Urbain and his wife had 8 children. You are descended from Gabriel, the oldest, I am descended from Jean, the youngest.
In between there were:
1. Gabriel
2. Marie
3. Jean-Baptiste
4. Elisabeth
5. Marie-Anne
6. Paul
7. Marie Madeleine
8. Jean
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have other questions. I'll try to help if I can. Forgive me if I can't always reply immediately. My job keeps me busy, and we are in the middle of buying a house! Try to e-mail me directly for quicker response.
Laini
