PICARD - (Fr.) - One who came from Picardy district of Pike men, in France. Picardy, or Picardie, according to the Encyclopedia Americana (1957 edition) volume 22, page 62-63, is the region and former province of France in what is now the Department of Somme, and parts of Pas-de-Calais, Oise, and Aisne. It extends in an easterly direction from the English Channel along Somme and Oise River valleys to the Belgian border. Picardy is a land of farms. It raises grain, sugar beets, flax, potatoes, and garden truck, but its cities have large textile mills. The chief centers are Amiens, Abbeville, Boulonge, Calais, and St.-Quentin. Of historical consequence from the 5th century, when Soisson was Clovis' capital, it first became known as Picardy under the house of Valois in the 13th century. It was ceded to Burgandy in 1435, but reverted to France in 1477 and was made a province with Amiens as its capital. During both World Wars heavy fighting took place here.

PICARD FAMILY LINE
ca. 1620
St. Remy de Dieppe, Diocese de Rouen, Normandie Before I compared my PICARD family genealogy with Thelma Richard from Crowley, the earliest record I had of a PICARD, that is connected to my PICARD family line, was that of Joseph PICARD ca. 1735 who is now listed as the 4th generation PICARD in my PICARD family line. On page 209 - in the publication entitled "Village of Chartres in Colonial Illinois" , by Brown and Dean, - D-285 - Records of the church of St. Anne , contains the record of the marriage of Joseph PICARD, son of Joseph Francois PICARD and Marie-Genevieve DESFORGES dit St. Maurice, on 1 Jan., 1759, to Marie Joseph DESJARDINS, (Andre Thomas Desjardins & Marie Joseph Sorel) witnesses to the marriage were: Francois Lorche uncle of the bride; Pierre le Jeunesse brother of Jos. Picard; and Andre Desjardins. (Village of Chartres in Colonial Illinois - Brown and Dean - p. 209 - Records of the Church of St. Ann - D-285) At that time, Joseph PICARD was residing in the village of New Chartres, parish of St. Ann of Fort Chartres, Province of Illinois (Colonial Illinois).
Joseph PICARD and Marie-Josephe DESJARDINS were probably married at the Chapel of Prairie du Rocher, which was a mission of the parish of the Church of St. Anne. It is not known exactly when Joseph PICARD, first came to the Illinois Territory. As noted in his marriage record to Marie-Josephe DESJARDINS, he appears to have originally resided in Ville Marie (Now Montreal), Quebec , Canada. However, in the marriage record, Joseph PICARD is recorded as being the son of Joseph PICARD & Marianne ST. MAURICE (DESFORGES), parish of Villemarie (Montreal) Diocese of Quebec. (note: St. Maurice is another name for DESFORGES and other records show that his mother's name was Marie Genevieve , not Marianne). In checking the recent material that was sent to me by Thelma Richard, Joseph PICARD's parents were Joseph Francois PICARD (sometimes referred to only as Francois PICARD) and Marie-Genevieve DESFORGES (dit St. Maurice), and his grandparents, were Pierre PICARD and Jeanne SEDERAY dit Cederet from St. Remy de Dieppe, France, who were married by "contrat Notaire Remy" on 21 July, 1669. And since his grandfather Pierre PICARD died and was buried on 29 June, 1726 at Trois-Rivieres, in Quebec Canada, And since his parents Joseph Francois PICARD m Marie-Genevieve DESFORGES (St. Maurice) were born in and resided for a time after they were married in Boucherville, Quebec, Canada, before moving to Detroit in the Louisiana Territory. And since his father Joseph Francois PICARD was buried in Detroit on October 7, 1728, which was 3 months and 20 days before he was born on January 27, 1729, it would appear that Joseph PICARD was born in Detroit in the Louisiana Territory. And since his mother married her third husband Pierre ESTEVE, dit LaJaeunesse on 24 November, 1729 in Detroit, when Joseph PICARD was only 10 months old, it appears that Joseph PICARD was raised by his mother Marie-Genevieve DESFORGES (St. Maurice) and her third husband Pierre ESTEVE, dit LaJaeunesse. And since his mother was drowned in the Mississippi River at CaKaKia, Illinois, in the Louisiana Territory, and buried on 27 August, 1747 at CaKaKia in Colonial Illinois, when Joseph was 18 years years old, and 11-1/2 years before his wedding to Marie-Joseph DESJARDINS, it would appear that Joseph PICARD, son of Joseph Francois PICARD and Marie-Genevieve DESFORGES (St. Maurice), was quite young when he moved from Detroit to Fort Chartres or CaKaKia in Colonial Illinois. However, thanks to Thelma Richard, we are now able to go back 3 more generations to David PICARD ca. 1620-1625 (parents unknown) who married Jacquette BARBE (parents unknown on 16 October, 1645 at St. Remy de Dieppe, diocese de Rouen, Normandie, France.

St Remy de Dieppe, Diocese de Rouen, Normandie, France
ca. 1640 -1669

DIEPPE , a town in France, located in the Department of Seine-Infrerieure, on the English Channel at the mouth of the Arques River, about 33 miles north of Rouen. Surrounded by chalk cliffs, it has excellent harbor accomodations, and is a resort and fishing port, and a terminous for cross-channel steamers. The 16th-18th century Church of St. Remy were damaged during World War II. Saint Remy in France in the Department of Bouches-du-Rhone, near the forest of Saint Benoit is a village 14 miles northeast pf Arles. It is celebrated for its Roman antiquities, the chief of which are the triumphal arch (100 A.D.) Rouen is the capital of the department of Seine-inferieure and situated on the right bank of the seine, 87 miles northwest of Paris - Cathedral of Notre Dame is located in Rouen. (Encyclopedia Americana)

The earliest PICARD ancestor that we have been able to document is David PICARD who was born about 1620-1645 in France. Records of his birth and the names of David PICARD's parents are unknown. He married Jacquette Barbe on the 16 October 1645 at St. Remi Catholic Church in Dieppe, diocese de Rouen, Normandie, France. Jacquette's parents are also unknown. David PICARD and Jacquette BARBE had a son Pierre PICARD who was baptized on 25 September, 1650 at St. Remi in Dieppe France. The census of 1666 at Trois-Rivieres, Canada lists Pierre PICARD (David PICARD and Jacquette BARBE) as residing at the home of Pierre Boucher. He would have been about 16 years old, and there was no mention of his parents being in Canada at this time. Thelma Richard believes that Pierre may have emigrated to Canada with Pierre Boucher. It is not known if Pierre PICARD was related to Pierre Boucher.

Ville Marie (Now Montreal), Québec , Canada
ca. 1670 - 1726

Paul de Chomedey de Maisonneuve led an expedition in August of 1641 with three vessels, two from La Rochelle and one from Dieppe, to establish the Company of Notre Dame of Montréal. He landed on the island on May 18, 1642 with a group of fifty settlers, including several Jesuit priests. The area was named Ville-Marie until 1700. Joseph PICARD (Joseph François PICARD and Marie-Genevive DESFORGES dit St. MAURICE) was born in Détroit on January 27, 1729 and was raised by his mother Marie-Genevive DESFORGES and stepfather, Pierre ESTAVE, dit LaJaeunesse, in Détroit, or possibly in Canada. If he grew up in Montréal area, he may have stayed there after his mother and family moved to Illinois, or Joseph may have traveled to Canada when he got older and lived at Ville-Marie or LaChine, which is very near to Montreal. He was a resident of Lachine, Canada, when he obtained a passport, at age 16, dated on 11 June, 1745 and again, when he was 19, dated 10 June, 1748 (10 months after his mother's death in Illinois),to go to the Poste de Michillimakinac, in the Louisiana Teritory as a cannoneer. Joseph PICARD's mother Marie-Genevive DESFORGES, drowned in Mississippi River at CaKaKia, Ill. She was buried on 27 August, 1747 at CaKaKia, Illinois. By 1758, Joseph PICARD was living at the Village of Chartres in the province of Illinois. He was listed as a joiner (carpenter) and a carriage wheelright. Joseph PICARD was a witness to a marriage in May 1758 at the Village Chartres (Fort de Chartres). When he was married in New Chartres in Illinois in 1759, was again listed as a former resident of Ville-Marie (Montréal) .

Boucherville, Québec, Canada
ca. 1670 - 1726

Pierre Sieur de Boucherville, French pioneer in Canada went to New France in 1635 where he settled at Trois-Rivieres, Canada. He later became governor of Trois-Rivieres, Canada in 1652 and served as governor until 1667. The census of 1666 at Trois-Rivieres, Canada lists Pierre PICARD (David PICARD and Jacquette BARBE), as residing at the home of Pierre Boucher. He would have been about 16 years old, and there was no mention of his parents being in Canada at this time. Pierre may have emigrated to Canada with Pierre Boucher. It is not known if Pierre PICARD was related to Pierre Boucher. Co-incidentally, the 4th generation of my maternal Roy family line, that enters my family genealogy with the marriage of my maternal grandparents Louis Joseph Picard and Julie Clarisse Roy: Agustin ROY or Leroy dit Desjardins, dit Lauzier bn. 2 July, 1701 (Pierre ROY or Leroy dit Desjardins and Marie -Anne Martin) , Captaine de Milice married at Boucherville on 22 October, 1725 to Jeanne Boucher- de Montbrun (Rene -Jean Boucher de Montbrun and Francoise-Claire Choret). This marriage took place just 1 year before Pierre Picard died. Was Rene Boucher related to Pierre Boucher? His son? Pierre PICARD made his confirmation at Trois-Rivieres, Canada on 6 June, 1666, and he married Jeane Sederay on 21 July, 1669 at St. Remi Catholic Church in Boucherville, Canada. Records show that Jeanne Sederay was born about 1651 in France. Her parents are unknown. In the 1681 census of Canada, Pierre PICARD was 31 years old and his wife, Jeane Sederay, was 30 years old. They were living at Repentigny, Canada. Pierre died and was buried on 29 June, 1726 at Trois-Rivieres, Canada. He would have been 76 years old in September of 1726. Jeanne Sederay PICARD's place and date of death are unknown.

Joseph Francois PICARD (Pierre PICARD and Jeane SEDERAY) was born on 3 August, 1673 at Varennes and was baptized on 4 August, 1673 at Boucherville Canada. He married on 18 October, 1694 at Boucherville to Marie Favreau. Marie Favreau was born in 1678 and was the daughter of Pierre Favreau and Marie Benoit. Joseph François and Marie had 4 children. Marie died on 1 May, 1703 at Montréal and was buried on 2 May, 1703 at Montrtéal, Canada. (Thelma Richard)

************************************************************************
Détroit, Territory of Louisiana
(later Detroit, Michigan)
ca. 1728-1750

The first settlement at Détroit was made in 1701 when Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac built a fur-trading post and fort at the site for Louis XIV of France. The name means strait and is called "the city of straits" because the Détroit river is really a stait. Joseph François PICARD, widower of Marie Favreau, and father of 4 children, married Marie-Genevive DESFORGES on January 27, 1728. Joseph Franéois PICARD died and was buried in Détroit on 7 October, 1728 just 9 months and 11 days after his marriage to Marie-Genevive DESFORGES on January 27, 1728. 3 months and 20 days after the death of Joseph François PICARD, his son Joseph PICARD was born in Détroit. Joseph PICARD (Joseph Francois PICARD and Marie-Genevive DESFORGES) later moved to the Illinois Territory with his mother and stepfather, Pierre ESTAVE,dit LaJaeunesse, when he was quite young. As mentioned above, Joseph PICARD (Joseph François PICARD and Marie-Genevive DESFORGES) was born in Détroit and first came to Illinois Territory with his mother and stepfather when he was quite young. Joseph PICARD was raised by his mother Marie-Genevive DESFORGES and stepfather, Pierre ESTAVE, dit LaJaeunesse, posibly in Canada, when he was quite young. Joseph PICARD's mother Marie-Genevive DESFORGES, drowned in Mississippi River at CaKaKia, Ill. She was buried on 27 August, 1747 at CaKaKia, Illinois.

VILLAGE OF NEW CHARTRES IN COLONIAL ILLINOIS (ca. 1745-1764)

At the end of the 17th century, "Old Kaskaskia" was founded in the "terrestrial paradise" and soon became a village of some importance. The first convoy of the new officials of the province of Illinois ascended the Mississippi, from New Orleans, in the summer of 1718. The first Fort de Chartres was begun and completed in 18 months and became the headquarters of Upper Louisiana and the most celebrated fortress in all of the valley of the Mississippi. Fort Chartres was on the east side of the Mississippi River, 12 miles above Kaskaskia. Kaskaskia was situated on the Kaskaskia River, 5 miles above its mouth upon a peninsula and within 2 miles of the Mississippi. The Village of Cahokia, Priarie de Rocher and other villages were soon built. In 1725 a monastery and college of the Jesuits wwere established at Kaskaskia and the town was chartered in 1725. Kaskaski was on the Kaskaskia River, 5 miles above the mouth of the river and within 2 miles of the Mississippi River. Prairie du Rocher was near fort Chartres, and St. Genevieve, on the west side of the Mississippi River and about 1 mile from its bank, upon Garbarre Creek. The fort was destroyed in 1727 by flood waters from the Mississippi River. The fort was rebuilt in 1732 and fell to ruin. A third fort was built of stone further inland, in 1753 and finished in 1756, .about 4 miles upriver from St. Philyppe. St. Philip was located about 45 miles below St Louis on the east side of the Mississippi River, or about 65 miles southeast of St. Louis, Missouri, on the Illinois side of the Cakokia Creek.

The Church of Ste. Anne of Village de Chartres in Colonial Illinois (1721-1765) had two chapels, one at the village of St. Philippe which was called the Chapel of the Visitation 1761-1765 (occasionally referred to as the Visitation of Our Lady) and the second at Prairie du Rocher. The Chapel of the Prairie du Rocher later became St. Joseph's Church, run by the Jesuits. The Church at St. Anne was abandoned in 1765, as was the Chapel of the Visitation and the records were removed to St. Joseph's Church, where thay remain today. Some portions of the records have been lost or destroyed (1726-1743 are missing). (THE VILLAGE OF CHARTRES IN COLONIAL ILLINOIS 1720-1765 - BROWN AND DEAN)

Life at Fort Chartres was much the same as it had been in 17th century France, content to live as his father lived to hunt, trap, or cultivate the bottom land, and like other communities became the breadbasket of New Orleans. (Attakapas Gazzette vol. XXVII - 1992 p. 5-7) As mentioned above, Joseph PICARD (Joseph François PICARD and Marie-Genevive DESFORGES) was born in Detroit and first came to Illinois Territory with his mother and stepfather when he was quite young. Joseph PICARD was raised by his mother Marie-Genevive DESFORGES and stepfather, Pierre ESTAVE, dit LaJaeunesse, posibly in Canada, when he was quite young. Joseph PICARD's mother Marie-Genevive DESFORGES, drowned in Mississippi River at CaKaKia, Ill. She was buried on 27 August, 1747 at CaKaKia, Illinois. Joseph PICARD may have stayed in Canada (Ville-Marie or LaChine) since his passport to go to the Louisiana Teritory in 1745 indicated that he was from LaChine. Joseph PICARD is recorded as being in the Louisiana Territory as early as 11 June, 1745 when he is listed as having applied for a passport to go from LaChine Canada to the Poste de Michillimakinac, in the Louisiana Territory, with Sir Saint-Germain to "defend the fort and its people". Joseph PICARD, was one of the six men assigned to the cannon . And again, on 10 June, 1748, he was assigned as one of six men to man the cannon at the poste Michillimakinac, in the Louisiana Territory. It is not known whether Joseph PICARD returned to LaChine after his service as a cannoneer in 1745 and 1748 but by 1758, Joseph PICARD was living at the Village of Chartres in the province of Illinois. He was listed as a joiner (carpenter) and a carriage wheelright. Joseph PICARD was a witness to a marriage in May 1758 at the Village Chartres (Fort de Chartres). On 15 January, 1759, Joseph PICARD Joseph PICARD, son of Joseph PICARD and Marie St. Maurice, Parish of Villemarie, Diocese of Quebec, was married, at St. Anne's Church of the Village of Chartres, to Marie -Josephe "Josette" DESJARDINS, the daughter of Andre Thomas Desjardins and Marie-Josephe Sorel who was born on 8 December, 1743 at the Village of Chartres, province of Illinois. Marie-Josephe's parents were also listed as René Desjardins & Marie-Josephe Sorel. (Village of Chartres in Colonial Illinois 1720-1765 - Brown and Dean - Record of the Church of St. Anne - D-285)

Joseph Picard is known to have been residing in New Chartres parish of St. Ann, as late as March 30, 1764 when he aknowledges to have sold some property to Antoine Riviere dit Bacanet for 722 livres.(Village of Chartres in Colonial Illinois 1720-1765 - Brown and Dean - Land Records from Randolph County Archives - K-336)

As the British occupation approached, most of the people in New Chartres and St. Phillyppe sold their land and moved on to other parts of French Louisiana. We beleive the Picards sold their property on March 30, 1764, and the LeJeunes on April 1, 1764, and eventually arrived in Pointe Coupée. Additionally, two related families Pierre Perault and Joseph Hennet, sold their holdings. - (pp. 250-251 HISTORY OF POINTE COUPEE) Joseph Picard and Marie Desjardins sold their property in Illinois and emigrated to Pointe Coupée, with Nyon de Villiers in the summer of 1764. Joseph Picard died in Pointe Coupée on August 26, 1764, shortly after he arrived from Fort Chartres. No record of the death of his wife, Marie-Josephe Desjardins, have been found. There were two children, Alexis and Joseph, who were known to have been born to Joseph Picard and Marie-Joseph Desjardins. The Picard family continues in their new home at Pointe Coupée, Louisiana.

Pointe Coupée, Territory of Louisiana
(later the State of Louisiana)
ca. 1764-1915

When French-Canadian, Sieur d'Iberville and his brother, Sieur d'Bienville, set sail from La Rochelle France in 1698 to explore the lower Mississippi and establish a colony for Louis XIV, his expedition reached a point where the meandering river doubled back on itself, forming an huge 22 mile oxbow. Iberville's Indian guides led the explorers along a six foot wide stream through the forest where they came accross the Mississippi river again. This short cut saved them ten leagues and valuable time and it became the route many used in the coming years. Iberville called this place, or short cut "la Pointe Coupée (the cut point). The small stream eventually became the main channel of the Mississippi River and in 1722 both ends of the hugh oxbow filled in with sediment, forming a 22 mile long oxbow shaped lake. The French called this lake, that at one time was part of the main channel of the Mississippi River, "Fausse Rivere" (False River). New Roads was an outpost of Pointe Coupée and was established by the French around 1727). The high, rich land attracted farmers to what became the parish of Pointe Coupée, and the parish was one of the first settlements in the Louisiana Purchase area. The Catholic community of Pointe Coupée is the fourth oldest in Louisiana and dates from 1728. The first church was built in 1823. The history of the town, or city, of New Roads goes back to 1822 when a six block settlement was exstablished at the terminus of a "new road" linking False River with the older Mississippi settlement to the north. The present day St. Mary's Catholic Church was built 20 feet from the site of first church that was built in 1823. My aunt Della Picard told me that her father Louis Joseph Picard (our grandfather Picard) was a carpenter and he helped build St Mary's Catholic Church in New Roads. The church was built between 1904 and 1907 and was finished in 1907, at a cost of $50,000.00. Grandfather Picard died in 1907.

PICARDS OF POINTE COUPEE

The Picard and LeJeune families, who play a part in my Picard family genealogy, came to Pointe Coupée by diverse routes, but both eventually called Pointe Coupee their home. The families apparently first met in the Illinois Territory in the village of New Chartres (Fort Chartres) and St. Philippe environs. The Lejeunes appear to have been in Illinois before the Picards. Our story begins when the Lejeunes, who appear to have been in Illinois before the Picards. Michel Lejeune and his wife sell their property on April 1, 1764, and Joseph Picard and his wife sell their property in Illinois and the two families eventually arrived in Pointe Coupée sometime after that. Additionally, two related families Pierre Perault and Joseph Hennet, sold their holdings. The record of the sale of their property can be found on page 251 of the "History of Pointe Coupeée - by Eugenia Sicard Olsen and Lonia Sicard Moore.Just 5 months after Joseph Picard and Marie Desjardins sold their property in Illinois and emigrated to Pointe Coupee, Joseph Picard died in Pointe Coupée on August 26, 1764. No record has been found of the death of his wife, Marie Desjardin. Michel Lejeune purchased a slave from Joseph Picard and his wife Brigette LeJeune in Pointe Coupée on August 22, 1799. (Note: New Roads - outpost of Pointe Coupée was established by the French around 1727)

Joseph PICARD and Marie Joseph DESJARDINS had the following children, both of whom married into the LeJeune family: 1.Alexis PICARD, who married January 6, 1784, Madaline LeJeune, daughter of Michel LeJeune and Marie Madeleine Hennet.2.Joseph PICARD, who married at Pointe Coupee in November, 1791 Brigette LeJeune daughter of Michel LeJeune and Marie Madeleine Hennet.The records show that Michel LeJeune was a resident of Pointe Coupee False River District in 1769 and was one of the first French residents of the District to take the Spanish Oath of Allegience. He was deceased by 1770. No record of the death of Marie Madelaine Hennet, his wife, has been found.
