About Michel Bouvier
https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=10700799
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pont-Saint-Esprit
Cabinetmaker. He fled from France to America as a young soldier after Waterloo. French artisans saw Philadelphia as a place to make a mark. Bouvier took up cabinet-making, and soon had a thriving business. He made furnishings for Stephen Girard and Joseph Bonaparte , King of Sicily and Spain, who lived at 206 South 9th Street after his brother's fall from power and before moving to New Jersey. While Bouvier did make money at cabinetry, he made his fortune in land speculation. He married Louise C. Vernou in 1828. One of his daughters, Emma would become the stepmother of Katharine Drexel (later Saint Katharine Drexel, SBS). Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was another famous descendant.* Reference: Find A Grave Memorial - SmartCopy: Sep 17 2019, 23:33:39 UTC
