Message Board Post:
Since Val de Marne, Vincennes, France is not that far from Bretagne, I wondered if you might have a connection to the CHAUVIN family I am interested in.
Francois CHAUVIN married Marie Josephe CALVES:
Their daughter, Jeanne Francois CHAUVIN (married Oct 1819 Brest, Finistere, Bretagne France) Michel Marie LeCLERC.
Do these names or this location have any connection with your line?
Do you know if any of your line migrated slightly northwest among those generations descending from your Remi Chauvin?
Thanks,
Kay, FL

I was able to find these people and put them in a chart for you. I sent you an invitation to see the family tree I have started begining with Warren Chauvin. These people are very interesting. I really believe that I have your family here. My research was from census records here at ancestry. I think your great great grandfather was Francois Chauvin and I think he was a free person in 1860. He and some of his descendants were bricklayers and masons. He is counted in the Veterans schedule in 1890. I am hoping to find out farther back than 1860.
So it goes like this: Your father Warren was born in 1918. Warren's father was Raoul born in 1887. Raoul's father was Joseph born in 1854 and Joseph's father was Francois born in 1815.
I hope you can see the tree I made for you and look at the census pages and other records I used in finding the information.

At one time there was a web site that included the title: Descendants of Jean Chauvin. I have tried to find it again and cannot. Can someone help me find it again or know where I can get a copy? Thanks.

Hi Cecilia: Besides you father, what other children did your fraternal grandparents have? Include both sexes and their full names if possible. What was your father's full name? I am keeping up with the information you supply to me so that I can research it in other places. Do you have any aunts or uncles on the Chauvin side that you can hit up for information? Also, I found a Mercedes Rouzan who died in March 1981. Was this your maternal grandmother? Leah

HI CECELIA.
I AM A DESCENDANT OF THE CHAUVIN'S. AND I LIVE IN CHAUVIN!
I HAVE CHECKED OUT ONLY A COUPLE OF THINGS SO FAR, BUT COULD YOU TELL ME YOUR FATHER'S BIRTH YEAR. I HAVE FOUND A WARREN BORN IN NEW ORLEANS IN 1919 AND HIS MOTHER WAS NAMED CECELIA. IF YOU CAN GIVE ME BIRTH DATES OF YOUR PARENTS I WILL LOOK UP MORE.
I LOVE A NEW CHALLENGE!

Do you have a name? Something other than your sign in moniker. As far as I know I am descended from the french (white). If there is any creole in my family tree, I don't know about it. My parents had little to do with their direct siblings or other family members. Don't know why, but it's been hard trying to track down family escendants. After my father graduated from high school in St. Martinville, he moved to Bossier City to help his sister out when her husband was killed in an automobile/train accident. That is where he met my mother. I have always wanted to visit the town of "Chauvin" in Louisiana. I'm pretty sure I would not have to correct anybody's pronounciation of my last name or spell it.

Yes, I am a Chauvin. My father's name is Henry Paul Chauvin. He had the following brothers: Serge Marcel, Joseph Nolan, John Washington and Clifford Rex. For now, just concentrate on the men folk in your family tree line whose last name was Chauvin. You might try to find a copy of your parent's marriage license. It might show your father's parents as well as your mother's. Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. Another good souce of information is the East Baton Rough Parish Library and the Louisiana State Library in Baton Rouge. Remember, in your research, you may find errors but don't dispair. Get a copy of your father and mother's death certificate. It should show who their parents were. I have more places for you to check out, but I have to look them up. Will get back to you on that.

My father's parents were Michel Merile Chauvin and Rosa Lea Falgout (the original family name was Falgoust). They were born in Houma, Louisiana. My grandparents ended up in Gueydan where my father was born. My grandfather died in a freak industrial accident and is buried in Gueydan Cemetery. My grandmother and the rest of the family eventually moved to St. Martinville. In order to make a determination as to whether we are related or not, start with Warren's parents and work back from there. My uncle (Dad's brother) did extensive research on our family tree from the very beginning up to and including his siblings but stopped there. We may be related but I have to find a link in the Chauvin line. Leah Chauvin

You need to go further back on the Chauvin family tree such as grandparents, g-grandparents, etc. State their names and where they were born. That will help to see if there is a connection. Leah Chauvin
