Jean CAILLIER (CAILLER, CAILLÉ) of New Orleans b. 7/19/1779 in New
Orleans, d. 5/24/1826 in St. Martinville; m. 2/6/1804 in Baton Rouge Parish
Marie PICOU (PICOT, PICOUD) of St. James on Miss. R. (dau. of Nicolas PICOU of
St. John Baptist and Scholastique BOURGEOIS of St. James on Miss. R.) b.
11/10/1788 in New Orleans, d. 11/24/1852 in St. Martinville (Landry
1.3.8.5.1.3.2.2).
We not know enough about this family. The 1820 census reports two adults,
presumably Jean and his wife Marie; 3 male children (1 under 10, 2 between 10 & 15);
6 female children (3 under 10 and 3 age 10-15). Assuming that the children are all
those of Jean and Marie: The male child under 10 would be Nicolas (#6); one male
child 10-15 would be Jean (#1). The female children under 10 would be Euphrosine
(#4), Uranie (#5), and Belsire (#7); two of the female children 10-15 would be
Celine (#0) and Marguerite (#3). Possibly Adeline (#10) is the third
female 10-15, but this seems unlikely. We are still missing one unknown boy age 10-15.
Some researchers identify Adeline (#10), whose birth record is unknown,
with Marie (#8), who was b. in 1822. It would make her 16 at the time
of her first marriage, which is plausible. Adeline's death record states
her birth to be about 1824; such statements are not necessarily very accurate.
I have found no evidence either to support or to contradict this identity. If true,
it implies an additional female child in the 1820 census record who is otherwise unknown.
It is possible that the unknown children in the 1820 census were not the children of Jean and Marie.
