Comments: Christofe HUBER, son of Jacob HUBER and Anne-Barbe SCHAUFFINE of Louvain, Belgium, married Anne-Barbe RAUCHEN or RAUSCHE before April 1732, when their daughter Marie was born at St.-Charles des Allemands; their son André was born not long afterwards. Anne-Barbe died in November 1746 at St.-Charles. On 31 Jan 1747, Christofe remarried to Catherine BENICH, daughter of Joseph BENISH and Madeleine SEILER of Burken, probably in Germany, and widow of Jacob FOLTZ, at St.-Charles; Christofe's father Jacob was a witness to this marriage. Jean-Christofe, probably one of Christofe's sons, married Marie-Josephe ST. YVE at St.-Charles; they had at least one son, Pierre-Antoine, born 31 July 1754 at St.-Charles. Christofe, père's son André married, around age 22, Marie-Élisabeth BONVILLAIN, daughter of Jacques BONVILLAIN and Catherine SCHOFF of New Orleans, 23 April 1754 at St.-Charles. By the early 1770s, André had moved his family upriver to St.-Jean-Baptiste des Allemands, present-day Edgard, St. John the Baptist Parish, where his son Pierre was born 5 September 1772; the family name in Pierre's baptismal record is OUVRE. By 1774, André had moved his family even farther upriver, to St.-Jacques de Cabanocé, present-day St. James Parish. André's son André-Joseph, called Joseph, married Marie-Blanche HÉBERT, daughter of Jean-Baptiste HÉBERT and Claire ROBICHAUX, 15 September 1774 at St.-Jacques and eventually moved to the Atakapas District, now St. Martin Parish. André's daughter Marie-Pélagie married Paul DAVID, son of Étienne-Michel DAVID and Geneviève HÉBERT of Acadia, 21 February 1775 at St.-Jacques. André is listed in the census of 1777 at St.-Jacques as living on the east side of the Mississippi and is called Andrée OUVRE. Living with his family was a 20-year-old Acadian engagé, Basil DEROCHE. Another of André's daughters, Francoise, born c1762, married Paul MARTIN dit Barnabé, son of Ambroise MARTIN dit Barnabé and his second wife Madeleine dite Émilienne COMEAUX of Acadia, 12 Jan 1779 at St.-Jacques. One of the witnesses at this wedding was Henrie or Henrique HOUWER, another of André's son, who married Angélique DAVID, sister of his brother-in-law Paul DAVID, 25 September 1787 at St.-Jacques. André's son Pierre married Félicité PERTUIS, daughter of Francois PERTUIS and Angela LEPIN of "Osalcanza," 7 January 1792 at St.-Jacques. Their son André, born at St.-Jacques in March 1794, married Rosalie VINCENT, daughter of Charles VINCENT and Céleste LABAUVE, 12 February 1816 at St.-Jacques. By the late 1820s, the couple had moved to St. Martin Parish to add to the line of OUBREs already there. Meanwhile, a Christophe OUBRE, no parents given, was buried at the Post des Atakapas, now St. Martinville, 24 Apr 1794, at age 50. He probably was a brother of André OUBRE, père of St.-Jacques, perhaps Jean-Christofe


In 1724, Jacob HOUBRE was residing in New Orleans on land owned by Bienville. The census taker recorded his land of origin as "Suabe" which is translated to be Swabia in Germany. The second source is the second marriage of Christof Huber, native of Louvin in Belgium, son of Jacob Huber and Anne Barbe Schauff(ine), widower of Marie Barbe Rausch, to Catherine Benich, in January, 1747. Apparently, according to Robichaux, there was hard times in the area and there was "significant immigration" from Swabia to New York in 1709. It could be that Christopher was born and baptized along the way to Rotterdam to await passage to America. Robichaux further theorizes that it could be due to the family being Catholic instead of Protestant that he immigrated to Louisiana instead of New York.

Christophorus Hoeber, son of Joannis Jacobi Hoeber and Anna Barbara Houbrin was baptized on March 13, 1709 in the Catholic Parish of Sint. Pieters (St. Peters), Louvain, Belgium [Leuven]. The godparents were Christophorus Fischer and Joannes Ein.
