Olivier Thibodeaux settled on land above that of his cousin, Amand. He received a Spanish grant of 6 arpents front by 40 arpents depth on both sides of Bayou Teche on June 20, 1771. He also obtained a grant of land in the Bayou Vermilion area on Jan 5, 1777. This land lay directly above that of his father and probably included part of the present-day Lafayette Municipal Golf Couse. [?Thibodeau from Acadia to Acadiana?, Gertrude C.

Text: From Stephen A. White. Agnes-Eulalie is described as a legitimate child in her baptismal record, but her parents were only married on 29 Jul 1743, nearly six months after her birth. "This irregularity was apparently the reason for her being sometimes called BRUN and sometimes PELLERIN." If parents are correct, they would have been first cousins.
"I list Joseph BRUN as...father along with a question mark and a substantial explanatory note regarding her alias and what it is likely to mean."

Charles married Marie Francoise Comeau 19 Déc 1715, Annapolis Acadie. Marie (daughter of Pierre Comeau and Jeanne Bourg) was born About 1693, Port Royal, Acadia, New France; died 9 Jul 1752, Chipoudy, Acadia, Nova Scotia, Canada. [Group Sheet]
