Jean (John) Courtenay, 1784-1870 came to America from France

ancestor= Jean (John) Courtenay, 1784-1870

comments= My family was able to trace our family line back to Jean Courtenay who apparently came to America from France. Unfortunately, we do not know what part of France he was from or who his parents were.

Jean Courtenay's wife was Marie Turin (1812-1884), and his children were: Urinte Courtenay, Cloiselle Isodore Courtenay, John Talmage Courtenay, Azoline Courtenay, Joshlin John Courtenay (my great grandfather), and Zoe Courtenay.

I'd appreciate any help you could provide in finding Jean Courtenay's parents, and/or where he was from.

Thanks.

  1. I know of Azoline Courtenay. She was my great grandmother and lived in Pass Christian, MS. I thought she was from Ireland or England!!
