54 A Mass of Christian Burial for Percy J. Henry, 79, was celebrated at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church. Father Mark Derise officiated. Entombment followed at Holy Family Mausoleum with "Taps" being performed by Mr. Henry's grand-nephews.

Percy J. Henry passed away peacefully on Sunday, March 22, 2009, at home with his family at his side. Mr. Henry was born on December 24, 1929, in Rayne, Louisiana. He was the eleventh of twelve children born to the late Lenis and Alice Leger Henry. While growing up on a sugarcane farm, he attended Charenton and Glencoe Elementary Schools, Franklin Senior High School and graduated from The American School in Chicago, Illinois. After graduation, Mr. Henry worked in the sugar testing laboratory at St Mary Sugar Coop and ran the steam turbine for South Coast Corp. (sugar mill) in Franklin. In the winter of 1947, his family left the farm and moved to New Iberia and he began working for the Louisiana Department of Transportation.

In 1947, Mr. Henry enlisted in the Louisiana National Guard and was sent to Fort Benning, Georgia to attend Infantry Mechanized Leaders School. He served as Battalion Motor Sergeant of the 2nd Battalion, 156th Infantry Brigade (Mechanized) during the Korean Conflict.

On March 25, 1950, he was united in Holy Matrimony to Verna Lee Hebert and they were blessed with five children. They lived in Lake Charles and Jennings while working for Standard Coffee. He purchased a small wholesale business and furnished supplies to Chennault Air Force Base in Lake Charles, Louisiana. After moving his family back to New Iberia, he worked for Segura Buick Company, Rainbow Paper Company and Glazier's Wholesale Distributors.

Mr. Henry was blessed with many friendships throughout his life. It was his career opportunities which afforded him this treasure. In 1961, he purchased an existing convenience store (Wag-A-Bag) and was the first local convenience store to begin operating from 7 to 11. In 1962, he purchased an existing coin-operated laundry (where the present Ford Motor Company is located), as well as all the laundry facilities at the New Iberia Naval Air Station, now called Acadiana Regional Airport, until it's closure in 1965. In 1963, he went on to build the first strip mall in New Iberia and relocated Wag-A-Bag to its present location on Center Street. In 1975, he added a ceramic studio and was awarded first place for his airbrushing exhibit at a ceramic show. Through the years, Mr. Henry brokered and hauled fields of watermelons out of the Rio Grande Valley and operated an open air produce market in the strip mall. For several years he raised cattle and hogs on Lewis Street where Super 1 Foods is currently located. He owned and operated two video poker parlors in the two strip malls until the outlaw of video poker in Iberia Parish in 1996. Mr. Henry operated Wag-A-Bag for a total of 44 years until his retirement, which also included the largest book store in the area at that time.

In December of 1956, Mr. Henry was initiated into the Independent Order of Odd Fellows (I.O.O.F), a fraternal organization derived from 17th century England and founded on the North American Continent in 1819 for the purpose of giving aid to those in need and of pursuing projects for the benefit of all mankind. Odd Fellows are also known as "The Three Link Fraternity" which stands for Friendship, Love and Truth. He was an active member of Iberia Odd Fellows Lodge No. 66 and New Hope Rebekah Lodge No. 70. He served as Grand Master of Louisiana in 1972, Sovereign Grand Representative in 1973-1974, Assistant Sovereign Grand Guardian in 1975, Sovereign Grand Marshal in 1977, Sovereign Grand Warden in 1985 and Deputy Sovereign Grand Master in 1986. He was especially honored to serve as I.O.O.F's international leader as their Sovereign Grand Master of the World in 1987-1988. He was honored at a testimonial banquet and dance on November 11, 1987 at the Lafayette Hilton with over five hundred people in attendance. As Sovereign Grand Master, Mr. Henry conducted the memorial service at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, gave the address and placed the ceremonial wreath at the tomb. It is an honor to be a part of this solemn ceremony, a privilege that was afforded to the I.O.O.F. in 1934 by our thirty-second President of the United States, Franklin D. Roosevelt. No other organization has been granted this honor. He was also one of many volunteers of the float committee selected to decorate the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs float in the 99th annual Tournament of Roses Parade. During his tenure as Sovereign Grand Master, he had the privilege of meeting people from many countries around the world and spent one week in Cuba. He served on the Expansion and Development Committee and Finance Committee of the Sovereign Grand Lodge. He was also instrumental in the development of the Odd Fellow Retirement Home in Crowley, LA while serving as Chairman of the Board.

Mr. Henry was a member of the local chapter of the Woodmen of the World, Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church and worked with several civic organizations, including the Boy Scouts of America. As hobbies, he enjoyed cooking, woodworking, and gardening. Most of all, one of his greatest pleasures after retirement was to begin his day by joining the Coffee Club at Handyman's Hardware store in New Iberia.

Affectionately known as "Paw" to many, Mr. Henry was a loving husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. Mr. Henry is survived by his loving wife of 59 years, Verna Hebert Henry, of New Iberia; two sons, three daughters, one sister; two brothers, nine grandchildren; 10 great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews. He leaves his family and friends with a lifetime of love and many memories to cherish.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Lenis and Alice Leger Henry; brothers John Henry, Julius Henry, and Raoul Henry; sisters Gladys Henry Louviere, Sister Claudette (Eula) Henry, Aggles Henry Guidry, Addie Henry and infant sister; and daughter-in-law Cyrillia Ann Henry.

64 about his grandfather:
Bastarache family
Telegraph-Journal, Tuesday, July 26, 1994; p. A6
The ancestor of the Bastarache family in Acadia was Jean Bastarache. He was called "Le Basque" because he came from the Basque country. Bastarache settled on the shores of the Port-Royal river after marrying Hugette Vincent around 1684. His grandsons, Pierre and Michel, were deported to South Carolina during the Fall of 1755. Along with a dozen other Acadians, they returned to Acadia by way of Québec - a six months' journey - to find their families.
Michel Bastarache later settled in Tracadie, New Brunswick, where many descendants bear the surname Basque

excerpt from the attached STORY from Stephen white:

Pierre Bastarache, who was born in Port-Royal on November 21, 1724. He flew to Port-Royal on January 26, 1750, with Anne Gaudet, daughter of Jean Gaudet and Madeleine Brun. Around 1752, he emigrated from Port-Royal to the Isthmus of Chignecto. It was among the refugees who were recorded in Tintamarre during the winter of 1754-1755. Taken under arms with his brother Michel during the fall of Fort Beauséjour in June 1755, he was deported without his family to South Carolina. In the fall of 1756, however, the Bastarache brothers returned to Acadia with twelve other Acadians ascending from the interior of the continent. Having therefore joined their wives and children, they could not long evade the English, but again became their prisoners at Fort Cumberland (formerly Beauséjour). Some time after the Treaty of Paris in 1763, they went to settle in the French Village (now Coverdale) and then on the West Bank of the Memramcook River (now Rockland). Around 1787, Pierre and Michel sold their sites to the Acadians who came from the Saint John River. Michel emigrated to Tracadie, New Brunswick, where his many descendants now bear the Basque name. Subsequently, Pierre went to find his sons Joseph and Isidore in Bouctouche, where they had been among the first settlers. He died in Bouctouche on March 21, 1796. He seems to have had six children, including Joseph

Jean Bastarache (Joannis Basterretche), known as the Basque, was born around 1658. He settled in Port-Royal, on land on the south shore of the Dauphin River (now the Annapolis River), near the earthly Paradise (now Paradise). His name appears in the Acadian documents from the 1686 census, where he has already been married for about two years to Huguette Vincent, daughter of Pierre Vincent and Anne Gaudet. In 1714, the year after the definitive surrender of Acadia to Great Britain, Jean Bastarache was among the Acadian inhabitants who embarked on the ship of King Mary Joseph to pass to Île Royale. But if he was gone, it wasn't long before he turned around. Jean Bastarache died in Port-Royal on September 5, 1733, aged seventy-five years. He was the father of five children, the youngest of whom was -

65 Abraham Dugas is the ancestral partriarch of the Acadian Dugas family. Abraham was born around 1616 in France. His parents are not known, but one theory is that they are Abraham Dugas and Marguerite Carsonne. They have not been connected because there is no evidence to support their inclusion. Stephen White suggests that Chouppes, in the diocese of Poitiers, France could be the place of origin of the Acadian DUGAS family. His ancestors were from Lyonnals and their original name was Crignet.
Abraham Dugas, the first name that came to America, he left Toulouse
and arrived in Port-Royal around 1640, where he was given the designation of Lieutenant General. He was armourer to the king.
He married Marguerite-Louise Doucet around 1647 in Port Royal.
Between about 1648 and 1667, the couple had eight children: Marie, Claude, Anne, Martin, Marguerite, Abraham, Madeleine, and Marie. Abraham owned a lot adjoining the side of the old Fort (which, according to Stephen White was expropriated in 1701 to extend the Fort in Port-Royal). It is not clear how long the family lived there.
When their third child Anne was born in 1654, Port-Royal was captured by Robert Sedgwick, who led 300 British soldiers and volunteers.
The [French] soldiers at Port-Royal, who numbered about 130 ? put up a brief defense against Sedgwick. Setting up an ambush between the landing site of the English troops and the fort, the Frenchmen fired on the attackers but proved no match for the experienced Roundheads. The French soon "took their heels to ye Fort." On August 16 the fort surrendered... Sedgwick granted honorable terms, allowing the defenders to march out of the fort with flags flying, drums beating, and muskets at the ready. The soldiers and employees working at the fort were offered transportation back to France and given enough pelts to cover their wages.
Although the commander of Port Royal left for France, most Acadians, including the Dugas family, remained in Acadia. They were permitted to retain their land and belongings and were guaranteed religious freedom. Dunn describes life in Acadia during the 16 years of nominal British rule
"During the years of British rule, most of the Port-Royal population moved upriver away from the town. Using the agricultural practices initiated under D'Aulnay, the Acadians dyked and cultivated extensive salt marshes along the river and raised livestock. Through necessity, residents had reached an accommodation with New England traders who had become their sole source for the goods that they could not produce themselves... New England traders exchanged their goods for Acadian produce and furs... There were seventy to eighty families in the Port Royal area in 1665."
The 1671 census of Port-Royal lists Abraham, a gunsmith age 55, living with his wife Marie Judith (sic) Doucet, 46, and their 8 children. They own 15 "arpents" of land, 19 head of cattle and 3 sheep.
By 1671 the British had ceded Acadia to France and French settlement resumed. Abraham was involved with the rebuilding of Port Royal:
In June 1673 men from the St. Jean Baptiste parish in the Port-Royal area met at the request of their church trustee, Abraham Dugas, to organize funding for construction of a parish church... Mass was being held in a borrowed room. The Acadians had maintained their faith throughout the long period of English rule.
In 1678 there are 3 children living in the Dugas household. Abraham and Marguerite own 20 head of cattle, 12 "arpents" of land and 1 gun.
In 1686, the children had flown the nest and Abraham and Marguerite were living on their own. Within four years, their relative peace would be shattered by King William's War (1689-1697) with France.
In May 1690, Sir William Phipps captured Port Royal, destroyed the church, plundered the settlement, and forced the inhabitants to swear an oath of allegiance to the English crown. He appointed Charles La Tourasse, a former sergeant of the French garrison, to serve as English commandant and leader of a council to keep the peace and administer justice. Phipps left Port-Royal within 12 days of arrival. Before the end of the summer, seamen from two ships looted Port-Royal and burned and looted between 28 and 35 homes and habitations including the parish church.
An English garrison was never established, possibly because the inhabitants refused to guarantee that the Indians would not attack if one was formed. Dunn describes the feelings of the residents during this unsettling time:
Throughout this period of nominal English rule, French and English vessels anchored at Port-Royal at will, contributing to a sense of unease among the residents. New England vessels came to trade, to check on the inhabitants, and to take French prizes. When the English were not around, French privateers operated out of the port, attracting local young men as crew with the promise of plunder, and outfitting the ships from local suppliers... Port-Royal residents did not always appreciate the presence of the French privateers.
In 1693, an encounter between the vessel of French privateer Pierre Masisonnat dit Baptiste and an English frigate brought further misery. English investigations into the role of Acadians' assistance of privateer Baptiste resulted in the burning of nearly a dozen homes and three barns of unthreshed grain. At that time Abraham and Marguerite were living with their son Claude and his family. Claude's farm was situated west of the Fort on the south side of the Dauphin (Annapolis) River.
Abraham may have lived long enough to witness the effects of the 1697 Treaty of Ryswick, when Acadia was restored to France with Port-Royal its capital. He died between 1693 and 1700. His wife is listed as a widow in the 1700 Census.

Abraham Dugas, the first name that came to America, was left Toulouse in 1640, to go s'establir Acadia. His ancestors were from Lyonnals.
Their original name was Crignet. In the seventeenth century, a member of this family was distinguished by prominent military, he was created a Knight of St. Louis and received the king a large area, called the field of Gas. Its crest as it keeps the Dugas of Lyon, was by mouth with the chief two swords in saltire and in quince peak.

According to a memorial attributed to Lamothe-Cadillac, Abraham Dugas "carried out the functions of general representative of the King in civil and criminal matters ."

5 Oct 1687: Abraham Dugas made his mark on an attestation in favor of Governor d'Aulnay's accomplishments on 5 Oct 1687; he had thus arrived in Acadia before 1650, the year of d'Aulnay's death.

2 Dec 1705: Expropriation of two lots "adjoining and drawing towards the old fort," and belonging to Abraham Dugas, for the extension of the fort at Port-Royal. As Abraham Dugas had been dead for over five years, one must suppose that his heirs were the actual owners of this land in 1705.?

68 According to Acadian historian Father Clément Cormier, Jacques Bourgeois was an army officer who served at Port-Royal in the 1650s and evidently was the brother-in-law of Germain Doucet, sieur de La Verdure, an associate of Acadian Governor Charles d'Aulnay. When the English seized Acadia in 1654, four years after d'Aulnay's death, Robert Sedgwick, leader of the English expedition, held Jacques Bourgeois as "hostage" to insure that Doucet, in command at Port-Royal, would fulfill the terms of surrender. Father Cormier says Jacques was repatriated to France along with other French officers and never returned to Acadia. According to Cormier, it was Jacques's son, Jacques dit Jacob, not Jacques, père the soldier, who was progenitor of the family in Acadia. However, more recent studies devoted to this important family, including that of genealogist Stephen A. White, tell a different story:

Jacques dit Jacob or Jacobus Bourgeois was born in France, perhaps at La Ferté-Gaucher on Rivière Grand-Morin in Champagne east of Paris, in c1619, parents unknown. A young surgeon, trained perhaps by members of l'Ordre de Malte, Jacques was recruited by Claude Launay-Rasilly, brother of Isaac de Razilly, after the French re-established control of Acadia in the 1630s. Jacques came to Acadia in 1641 aboard the St.-François and established one of the first families in the colony. He married Jeanne, daughter of prominent settler Guillaume Trahan and his first wife Françoise Corbineau, at Port-Royal in c1643. Jeanne had come to Acadia even earlier than Jacques--in 1636 aboard the St.-Jehan, with her father, mother, and a sister. In February 1653, Jacques stood as a witness to the marriage of Governor Charles La Tour and Jeanne Motin de Reux, the widow of former Governor Charles d'Aulnay. Jacques was second in command of the post when Robert Sedgwick and his New Englishmen captured Port-Royal August 1654. Jacques remained there with his wife and children and became a farmer and a shipbuilder. He also worked as a merchant, trading regularly with the New Englanders of Boston. Having learned to speak English fluently, he served as the King's interpreter in dealings with the English. Jacques also became a successful fur trader among the Indians and ventured to every corner of the colony. It is said that in 1671, when the first Acadian census was taken, Jacques was the most properous habitant in the colony. In 1672, he sold a part of his holdings at Port-Royal and, with his two older sons and two of his sons-in-law, pioneered the major Acadian settlement of Mésagouèche, later Missaguash, on the isthmus of Chignecto, "the first swarming of the Acadians to establish their hive," as one historian describes it. He built a flour mill and a saw mill at Chignecto to encourage settlement beside the wide salt marshes that were perfect for cattle raising. In 1676, part of Chignecto became the seigneurie of Canadian-born French nobleman Michel LeNeuf de La Vallière, père, who named his 100-league holding Beaubassin. La Vallière brought in settlers and indentured employees from Canada, in direct competition with the earlier, adjacent Bourgeois settlement. According to Acadian tradition, a clause in La Vallière's land grant title "protected the interests of Jacques Bourgeois and the other Acadian settlers established on the domain," and "it was not long before the two elements of the population merged into one."

Jacques and Jeanne had 10 children, seven daughters and three sons. Six of their daughters married into the Cyr, Girouard, Boudrot, Mirande dit Tavare, Maisonnat dit Baptiste, Dugas, LeBlanc, and Comeau le jeune dit Des Loups-Marins families. A French census taker found Jacques living with one of his sons at Chignecto in 1698, but otherwise he spent his final days at Port-Royal. He died at Port-Royal in c1701, in his early 80s. All three of his sons, born at Port-Royal, created families of their own, but only two of them had sons:

Oldest son Charles, born in c1646, married Anne, daughter of Abraham Dugas and Marguerite Doucet, at Port-Royal in c1668. Charles and Anne had four children, including two sons who married into the Blanchard family. One of their daughters married into the Caissie family. One of Charles's grandsons, Honoré, who married twice into the Richard family, moved from Chignecto to Île St.-Jean, today's Prince Edward Island, in the late 1740s or early 1750s probably to escape British authority in Nova Scotia.

Germain, born in c1650, married Madeleine, daughter of Antoine Belliveau and Andrée Guyon, probably at Chignecto in c1673. They had three children, including a son who married into the Mius de Pleinmarais and Thibodeau families. Their daughter married into the Breau family. Germain remarried to Madeleine, another daughter of Abraham Dugas and Marguerite Doucet and sister of brother Charles's wife Anne, probably at Chignecto in c1682. They had 10 children, including two sons who married into the LeBlanc family. Their eight daughters married into the Poirier, Richard dit Lafond and dit Beaupré, Girouard, LeBlanc, and Robichaud dit Prudent families. In 1696, during King William's War, Germain commanded a ship in Pierre Le Moyne, sieur d'Iberville's attack on the New England fort at Pemaquid, Maine. Later that year, Germain confronted Massachusetts Colonel Benjamin Church when the Englishman attacked Chignecto. Germaine died in 1711, in his early 60s, from the rigors of being held hostage by British Colonel Samuel Vetch in the dungeon at Port-Royal during Queen Anne's War.

Youngest son Guillaume, born in c1655, married Marie-Anne, daughter of Martin d'Aprendestiguy, sieur de Martignon, a Basque fur trader and seigneur on lower Rivière St.-Jean, and Jeanne de Saint-Étienne de La Tour, daughter of former governor Charles La Tour, probably at Port-Royal in c1686. Guillaume did not follow his older brothers to Chignecto but remained with his father at Port-Royal, where he became a merchant like his father. In September 1727, he was one of the delegates from Port-Royal representing Acadian interests before the Nova Scotia Council at Port-Royal. Along with two other Acadian leaders, Charles Landry and Abraham Bourg, Guillaume refused to take the oath of allegiance to British King George II and was imprisoned for his opposition. Guillaume and his wife had only a single child, a daughter, who married into the LeBlanc family.

Jacques became a farmer and shipbuilder in Port Royal. He traded with Bostonians and learned English, enabling him to become an interpreter. He sold part of his holdings in 1672, and settled in the Chignecto Basin, along with his two oldest sons and two of his sons-in-law. He became the first promotor of Beaubassin, by building a flour mill and a saw mill, encouraging more people to settle the area, which became very prosperous.

He returned to Port-Royal again before 1699, living there until his death in 1701.

89 Alexandra of Denmark (Alexandra Caroline Marie Charlotte Louise Julia; 1 December 1844 ? 20 November 1925) was Queen of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions and Empress of India from 1901 to 1910 as the wife of King-Emperor Edward VII.

Alexandra's family had been relatively obscure until 1852, when her father, Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, was chosen with the consent of the major European powers to succeed his distant cousin Frederick VII as king of Denmark. At the age of sixteen Alexandra was chosen as the future wife of Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, the heir apparent of Queen Victoria. The couple married eighteen months later in 1863, the year in which her father became king of Denmark as Christian IX and her brother was appointed king of Greece as George I. She was Princess of Wales from 1863 to 1901, the longest anyone has ever held that title, and became generally popular; her style of dress and bearing were copied by fashion-conscious women. Largely excluded from wielding any political power, she unsuccessfully attempted to sway the opinion of British ministers and her husband's family to favour Greek and Danish interests. Her public duties were restricted to uncontroversial involvement in charitable work.

On the death of Queen Victoria in 1901, Albert Edward became king-emperor as Edward VII, with Alexandra as queen-empress. She held the status until Edward's death in 1910. She greatly distrusted her nephew Wilhelm II, German Emperor, and supported her son George V during the First World War, in which Britain and its allies fought Germany. 
Princess Alexandra of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg Queen Consort of the United Kingdom (I14373)
 
90 Alexandre Bourg dit Belle-Humeur (1671 ? 1760) was a notary and King's attorney living in what is now Nova Scotia, Canada.[1]
The son of François Bourg and Marguerite Boudrot, he was born in Port-Royal (later Annapolis Royal). Around 1694, he settled at Grand-Pré. Bourg married Marguerite Melanson; the couple had at least 16 children. After the British took over Acadia in 1710, he was named a notary for the Minas Basin area. On several occasions, he represented the Acadians of that region in delegations to the British authorities at Annapolis Royal. In 1730, Bourg was named king's attorney for Minas, Pisiquid, Cobequid and Chignecto. After being accused of negligence, he was removed from that post and his position of notary in 1737 by lieutenant-governor Lawrence Armstrong. However, in 1740, he was reinstated as notary and tax collector. In 1744, after he was accused again of negligence and of having been involved with his son-in-law Joseph Leblanc dit Le Maigre in aiding actions taken against the British, Bourg was removed from his position as notary.[1]
..By 1752, he was living with Leblanc at Port-Toulouse. When Louisbourg was captured in 1758, Bourg fled to Richibucto, where he later died at the age of 89.[1][2]

92 Alexandre Leborgne son of Emmanuel Leborgne and Jeanne Francois was born on March 12, 1640 in the parish of Saint-Barthélemy in La Rochelle. He died around 1693 in Port-Royal in Acadie.
Historical Notes
May 1658
Alexandre Leborgne with fifty men seizes Fort de la Hève. During Thomas Temple's counterattack, Alexander was wounded and taken prisoner to London. Le Roy Louis XIV asked his ambassador to England to have Mr. Leborgne released.
1667
Prisoner, Alexandre Leborgne de Belle-Isle is released (Treaty of Breda of July 31).
1668
Alexandre was appointed alternate governor of the colony in place of his father and he now called himself Leborgne de Belle-Isle and returned to France.
1670
Alexandre returns to Acadia with the governor of Andigné de Grandfontaine to defend the Acadian interests of his family.
1671
Leborgne was threatened by the lawsuits undertaken in France by Dame Marie Menou d'Aulnay, Chanoinesse de Poussay (daughter of Charles Menou d'Aulnay and Jeanne Motin de Reux) who tried to repossess the land which had been conceded to her father.
According to Perrot. Belle-Isle was addicted to wine. Drunk, he sometimes conceded the same land simultaneously to several settlers; which did not fail to cause many inconveniences to the inhabitants.
De Meneval, in November 1685, went so far as to imprison him for a few days for disorders of this nature.
Port-Royal 1686 Census
Alexandre Leborgne de Belle-Isle, 43 years old; Marie de Sainte-Etienne, 32 years old; Etienne Archer, servant; Emmanuel. 11 years old; Marie, 9; Alexandre, 7; Jeanne, 5 years old.
On May 13, 1686, the intendant Desmeules confirms this in the enjoyment of all his previous concessions.
11 May 1690

Negotiation for the surrender of Port-Royal.
13 May 1690
Sir William Phips appoints him a member of the council to administer justice at Port-Royal.
2 May 1693
Concession of land in Port-Royal by Marie de Saint-Etienne de la Tour, widow of Alexandre Leborgne to Denis Petitot, according to what he left with a private note from the so-called Demoiselle, dated 10 May 1692
(S.G.C.F., vol.V, p.39).

A letter from Minister Des Friches de Meneval in 1688 revealed that the Leborgens were disputing at that time the expulsion they had suffered from some of their properties in Acadia. When Chanoinesse Poussay died in 1691, the trial was continued by her half-brothers and half-sisters, the children of Charles de Saint-Etienne de la Tour and Jeanne Motin de Reux. It was mainly one of their sons, Charles, who continued the litigation in France.
The descendants of Alexandre Leborgne de Bélisle and Marie de Saint-Etienne de la Tour were severely tested during the dispersal; Leborgne and Bélisle are now found in Canada and the United States.
