Descendants of Joseph TRAHAN, fils (c1762-1793; Guillaume, ?)

Joseph, fils, son of Joseph Trahan and Élisabeth Aucoin, born probably in Maryland in c1762, first appears in South Louisiana church records in June 1783, when he married Françoise, daughter of fellow Acadian Modeste Pitre, at Attakapas. Joseph, fils probably had come to the colony as a young orphan in the late 1760s and lived on the river before crossing the Atchafalaya Basin to the Attakapas District. He and Françoise settled on the Vermilion. Their daughter married into the Landry family. Joseph died probably on the Vermilion in February 1793, in his early 30s. His sons and grandsons settled in what became Lafayette and Vermilion parishes. They were especially numerous around Abbeville on the lower Vermilion.

1 Oldest son Joseph III, born "between Jan.-June 1784 and baptized at Attakapas in June 1784, married Anastasie, daughter of fellow Acadian Joseph Landry of the Vermilion, at Attakapas in January 1806. They settled on the Vermilion. Their son Magloire was born in September 1806, a son, name unrecorded, died at age 7 days in November 1808, Joseph IV was born in February 1810, Leufroi in August 1812, Similien or Syphorien in October 1813, and Charles le jeune in April 1816. They also had a son named Maximilien or Maxilien.

1a Magloire married cousin Marie Arsènne, daughter of fellow Acadian Louis Hébert, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in November 1825; Marie's mother, also, was a Landry. Their son Théogène was born in Lafayette Parish in February 1841.

1b Joseph IV married Marie, daughter of Frenchman Pierre Dubois, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in April 1833. Their son Léo was born in Lafayette Parish in September 1836, and Camille in July 1841.

1c Syphorien married Olive, also called Alix, another daughter of Pierre Dubois, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in July 1833. Their son Syphorien, fils was baptized at the Vermilionville church, age 11 months, in August 1839, and Adrien was born in January 1841. They were living near Abbeville, Vermilion Parish, by the early 1850s. Their daughter married into the Thibodeaux family.

Syphorien, fils may have married French Creole Marie Dartes at the Abbeville church, Vermilion Parish, in December 1865. Their son Jules was born near Abbeville in October 1866.

1d Maximilien married cousin Marie Olive, called Olive, daughter of fellow Acadian Maximilien Landry, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in February 1835. Their son Émile was baptized at the Vermilionville church, age 1 month, 20 days, in March 1839, Clairville was born in March 1840, Aurelien in October 1854, and Marcel near Youngsville in January 1866. They also had sons Camilien and Jules.

Jules married Emma, daughter of Germain Bouguinais, Bourguinais, or Bourguini, at the Abbeville church, Vermilion Parish, in July 1867; Emma's mother was a Boudreaux.

A succession record for Camilien Trahan was filed at the Abbeville courthouse, Vermilion Parish, in 1866, but it probably was not postmortem. Camilien, perhaps Clairville, married Arthémise, daughter of French Creole Timothée Delcambre, at the Abbeville church in February 1869. Their son Clémile was born near New Iberia, Iberia Parish, in February 1869.

1e Charles le jeune may have married French Canadian Valsaine Primeaux. Their son Joseph was born near Abbeville, Vermilion Parish, in March 1844, and Gustave in September 1853. Their daughter married into the Frederick family.

2 Charles, born probably at Attakapas in the late 1780s, married Marie Louise or Éloise, daughter of fellow Acadian René LeBlanc of Vermilion, at Attakapas in January 1807. They settled on the Vermilion. Their son Éloi was born in June 1812, Onésime, called Lésime, in May 1814, Chevalier in July 1816 but died at age 11 in October 1827, and Evariste was born in March 1821. Their daughters married into the Broussard, LeBlanc, and Lemaire families.

2a Éloi married Eveline, Evelina, Valine, or Valini, daughter of Pierre Marthe Lee, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in December 1834. Their son Joseph le jeune was baptized at the Vermilionville church, age 1, in March 1840, John was born in March 1842, Éloi Polk in January 1845, Alcide in April 1847, Charles le jeune near Abbeville, Vermilion Parish, in May 1848, Austin Lasty in January 1850, Marc Éloi in July 1861, and Jesse Edvin in January 1863.

2b Onésime married Marie Eliza, called Eliza, daughter of French Creole Mathias Luguet or Luquet, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in July 1835; Marie's mother was a Mouton. Their son Charles Achille was born in Lafayette Parish in November 1839, Paul Clemise in April 1841, and Horace in April 1851. They also had a son named Florien.

Florien married Mélanie, daughter of fellow Acadian Béloni Broussard, at the Abbeville church, Vermilion Parish, in May 1869.

2c Evariste married Adélaïde or Adeline, daughter of fellow Acadian Hippolyte Savoy, fils, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in October 1841. Their son Désiré was born in Lafayette Parish in February 1845, and a child, name and age unrecorded, perhaps a son, died in December 1848. Their daughter married into the Bernard family.

During the War Between the States, Désiré served in Company A of the 26th Regiment Louisiana Infantry, raised in Lafayette Parish, which fought at Vicksburg, Mississippi. Désiré married Amelina or Aurelina, daughter of French Creole Ursin Langlinais and widow of Vilcor LeBlanc, at the Youngsville church, Lafayette Parish, in September 1866; Amelina's mother was an Acadian Roy. Their son Françoise[sic] Désiré was born near Youngsville was born in January 1867. Désiré died probably near Youngsville in October 1868; he was only 23 years old; his succession record had been filed at the Vermilionville courthouse, Lafayette Parish, the previous July, so one wonders if he died of a lingering illness or perhaps from a wound he suffered during the war.

3 Youngest son Jean dit Petit Jean, born probably at Attakapas in c1789, married Césaire, daughter of French Creole Pierre Baudoin of St. Charles Parish, at the St. Martinville church, St. Martin Parish, in November 1810. The settled at Grosse Île on the Vermilion. Their son Evariste was born in February 1815. Their daughters married into the Boudreaux, Duhon, and Hébert families. Petit Jean died at Grosse Île in October 1822; he was only 33 years old; his succession record was filed at the Vermilionville courthouse, Lafayette Parish, in June 1823.

Evariste married Louise Zoë, called Zoë and also called Pouponne, daughter of French Creole François Marceaux, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in July 1834. Their son Oscar was baptized at the Vermilionville church, age 3 1/2 months, in June 1838, Jean was born in June 1842, and François Evariste, called Evariste, fils, in August 1847. Evariste died in Lafayette Parish in September 1847; the Vermilionville priest who recorded his burial said that Evaris, as he called him, died "at age 26 yrs.," but this Evariste would have been 32.

Oscar married Maria, daughter of fellow Acadian Syphorien Boudreaux, at the Abbeville church, Vermilion Parish, in July 1866.

Evariste, fils married cousin Azéline, daughter of Auguste Marceaux, at the Abbeville church, Vermilion Parish, in February 1870.

A young Trahan seems to have come to Louisiana from France before the first of the Seven Ships arrived in July 1785. If so, one wonders how he got to New Orleans, and when. He settled in the Attakapas District:

Their son Joseph le jeune was baptized at the Vermilionville church, age 1, in March 1840, John was born in March 1842, Éloi Polk in January 1845, Alcide in April 1847, Charles le jeune near Abbeville, Vermilion Parish, in May 1848, Austin Lasty in January 1850, Marc Éloi in July 1861, and Jesse Edvin in January 1863.

2b Onésime married Marie Eliza, called Eliza, daughter of French Creole Mathias Luguet or Luquet, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in July 1835; Marie's mother was a Mouton. Their son Charles Achille was born in Lafayette Parish in November 1839, Paul Clemise in April 1841, and Horace in April 1851. They also had a son named Florien.

Florien married Mélanie, daughter of fellow Acadian Béloni Broussard, at the Abbeville church, Vermilion Parish, in May 1869.

2c Evariste married Adélaïde or Adeline, daughter of fellow Acadian Hippolyte Savoy, fils, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in October 1841. Their son Désiré was born in Lafayette Parish in February 1845, and a child, name and age unrecorded, perhaps a son, died in December 1848. Their daughter married into the Bernard family.

During the War Between the States, Désiré served in Company A of the 26th Regiment Louisiana Infantry, raised in Lafayette Parish, which fought at Vicksburg, Mississippi. Désiré married Amelina or Aurelina, daughter of French Creole Ursin Langlinais and widow of Vilcor LeBlanc, at the Youngsville church, Lafayette Parish, in September 1866; Amelina's mother was an Acadian Roy. Their son Françoise[sic] Désiré was born near Youngsville was born in January 1867. Désiré died probably near Youngsville in October 1868; he was only 23 years old; his succession record had been filed at the Vermilionville courthouse, Lafayette Parish, the previous July, so one wonders if he died of a lingering illness or perhaps from a wound he suffered during the war.

3 Youngest son Jean dit Petit Jean, born probably at Attakapas in c1789, married Césaire, daughter of French Creole Pierre Baudoin of St. Charles Parish, at the St. Martinville church, St. Martin Parish, in November 1810.

Evariste married Louise Zoë, called Zoë and also called Pouponne, daughter of French Creole François Marceaux, at the Vermilionville church, Lafayette Parish, in July 1834. Their son Oscar was baptized at the Vermilionville church, age 3 1/2 months, in June 1838, Jean was born in June 1842, and François Evariste, called Evariste, fils, in August 1847. Evariste died in Lafayette Parish in September 1847; the Vermilionville priest who recorded his burial said that Evaris, as he called him, died "at age 26 yrs.," but this Evariste would have been 32.

Oscar married Maria, daughter of fellow Acadian Syphorien Boudreaux, at the Abbeville church, Vermilion Parish, in July 1866.

Evariste, fils married cousin Azéline, daughter of Auguste Marceaux, at the Abbeville church, Vermilion Parish, in February 1870.

A young Trahan seems to have come to Louisiana from France before the first of the Seven Ships arrived in July 1785. If so, one wonders how he got to New Orleans, and when. He settled in the Attakapas District:
