The NORMAND Family Of Louisiana: Volume 2/ AT AVOYELLES On The Red River

"The NORMAND Family of Louisiana" Volume two, "Aux Avoyelles dans Rivière Rouge" (at Avoyelles on the Red River), picks up where the first volume ended. Jean-Pierre Normand had two surviving sons, Pierre Normand (1774-1844) and Laurent Normand (1780-1842), from whom almost all the Normands of Louisiana descend. The book details their lives and acquaints us with their descendants. The children of Pierre and Laurent are featured in the subsequent chapters, which includes a descendants' narrative for each to the 21st century. We revisit our ancestors in the old town of Marksville and the surrounding areas of Bluetown, Par en Haut, and Prairie Bono on the Red River; Cocoville, Cotes des Gremillion, Grande Cotes, and Petite Cotes on the Avoyelles Prairie; and the communities along Bayou Des Glaises, Bayou Rouge, and Lake Pearl. From Brouillette to Plaucheville, and from Bunkie to Simmesport, the Normand family married into the Bordelon, Gremillion, Couvillion, Coco, DeCuir, Gaspard, Rabalais, Laborde, Joffrion, Lacour, Roy, Ducote, Gauthier, Dauzat, Riche, Mayeux, and many, many more established families of Avoyelles Parish. Written in his unique, animated style, family historian Mark J. Normand has loaded this 566-page volume with fascinating stories about the lives and times of our ancestors. Besides the thousands of contemporary Normand genealogies, the book includes over 600 great old photos and illustrations. It catalogues nearly 7,500 individuals that have ties to the Louisiana clan. If you want to see which branch of the NORMAND TREE you belong, or just curious about how you might be related to the Normand living down the street, it's all in Normand, volume 2.
