Charlotte, I'm sorry, I checked my notes again and actually the Parish this Champagne
Family seems to have lived in was St. Martin or is it actually St. Martinville? I found
this info some time ago in Father Heberts books. It listed Uranie Champagne, dgt of Louis
dit Paul Champagne and Lise Picard, born 12/17/1824. (volume 7 pg 190). In another entry
it has Jacob Lense, son of Pierre (probablly Peter) Lense and Mirette Picard, married
Uranie Champagne on 1/23/1844 at St. Martin of Tours Catholic Church (volume 8 pg 239).
And in another entry it has Uranie Lense, dgt of Jacob Lense and Uranie Champagne, born
3/7/1845, St. Martinville. (volume 9 pag. 61). Now, my ancestor, Jacob Lentz/Lantz is
listed as being from Prussia and he married Celise Muller/Miller in the Lafayette Church
on Sept. 29, 1855. (volume 6 pg 390). Could these two Jacob Lence/Lentz be the same.
It's not a very common last name. I do know that Uranie Champagne died just a few
days after their dgt Uran!
ie was born, but I don't have the date in front of me this minute. Would you have any
info on these people? Appreciate your time,
Tammy
