Hello Everyone,

I am picking up my family research after being away from it for some time,
and am writing to ask the list's help in getting started again.

Can someone tell me, please, if a passport would have been required for
traveling to France in the 1800s?  One of my ancestors traveled back and
forth to France--Paris, Bordeaux--from about 1825 to 1867.  In 1867 she
returned to New Orleans from Bordeaux after the death of her second husband.
Also, during her travels back and forth she was unaccompanied, except for
her children--teens, young children, and at one time, a baby about 4 months
old.  Would that have been unusual?

I am trying to find a death record for one of my lines female progenitor.
She filed a will in September,1800.  I have found no record of her death.
If she died before 1804 (Louisiana State Archives records begin 1804), and I
do not have a death date for her, where can I search?  I have checked with
the Archdiocese of New Orleans and there is no death or burial record for
her for 1800 or 1801.

Are there street directories for the late 1790s?  This particular ancestor
was willed a house on Dumaine Street in 1793.  The address on Dumaine may be
a way to track her up to the year of her death.

I look forward to any and all replies.  Thank you.

Roslyn

A contact from the Archidocesan Archives sent me this note after I asked about Vol II of their records:



Vol. 2 is out of print and will not be reprinted.  Instead, however, the Archdiocese will, in time, put all 19 volumes of published Sacramental Records abstracts on-line.

At the moment they have just released on line all of the slave and free person of color register entries for the Spanish colonial period, 1777-1805. These records had not appeared in the published series since the persons did not have surnames.  The next set of records to go on line will be all the registers of whites for the same period, and the books from the French colonial period (1720-1777). 

The images are sometimes a bit hard to read because of ink bleed through from the opposite side of the page, there are holes in some pages because of acid in the ink which destroyed parts of pages, and the handwriting takes some time to get used to.  And of course the records are written in Spanish, and for many years before and after the Spanish colonial era they are written in French and sometimes in Latin,

I was wondering the same thing, and if they don't, is there a way to see the index?  I don't have an exact date of the baptism.

Ancestry.com has copies of passport applications that go pretty far back. Some have photos, some don't.
It wouldn't help with date of death but it could lead to some interesting info!

Will they tell you what years the 19 volumes of the Sacramental

Roslyn,

I have some thoughts on your third item.

I am not aware of any ?street directories? from the late 1790s. Also, addresses from that era have no relationship to today?s addresses.

I would suggest that you contact the HNOC (Historic New Orleans Collection). They have records for most properties in the French Quarter. The HNOC can be emailed here:
w...@hnoc.org

Let us know if you learn anything from them.

Norm

Roslyn,

You might also want to contact the Notarial Archives. I understand  they
have the conveyance records back to the 1600s.  They also have a  lot of the
wills, probates, and other notarized records.
