My great grandfather translated a family record for the Coulon's about 1897 in which he states that his great grandfather was Jean COULON, who died young, etc.(All of my Coulons from this period were born and died in Seloncourt.)A French genealogist in Montbeliard, Doubs told me that it was actually Georges COULON and that the wife was Catherine GROBET.My great grandfather then goes on to name their 5 children and who they married.One child was "Catherine COULON who married BONAME.Catherine had one child."
I wonder if Susanne BONAME could be that child and Anne COULON is possibly Anne Catherine COULON?Is it possible for you to check any of that out for me?I do know that a THOUROT was on the ship with my GG grandparents and their two sons when they came to Ohio in 1866, but I have not looked for a BONAME.I'll see if I can blow the dust of that passenger list (written in disappearing ink!) and see who else I can find.

One of the other sisters of Jean/Georges COULON and Catherine GROBET was given by my great grandfather as Marguerite, who married ROSSELOT.They had three children whom he does not name.This is a point in the family history where dates were skimpy or absent, so it's hard to say whether this could be the right generation or not, but it would be of great interest to me if it is possible for you to go back from Anne Marguerite one or two generations and see where it leads
Finally, the only named son of Jean/Georges COULON and Catherine GROBET was Jean Frédéric COULON (15 Mar 1788-aft 1831), who married a Suzanne SIRECOULOMB (1787-7 Aug 1823), supposed to be from Dasle, Doubs, d/o George SIRECOULOMB (1749-11 Oct 1829) born possibly in Beaucourt, died in Seloncourt and Suzanne ROUX (?-1808)
I wonder if Suzanne ROUX connects to any of your Roux lines?
