The Delahorne/Curtis Family History

Theriot · ◉ direct ancestor

♀Rosalie Theriot

Born about 1778, St. James, Louisiana, United States.

Also recorded as Rosalie Monique Theriot.

Rosalie Theriot (baptised 5 May 1778) was a daughter of an Acadian family at St. James, on the Mississippi River in Spanish Louisiana, and the wife of Pierre Dupuis, whom she married on 17 February 1800 in a double wedding: the same day, on the same page of the register and before the same witnesses, her brother Caesar married Pierre’s sister Maria. She was the fourth great-grandmother of Floyd Amatus Delahorne (1922–2014), through her daughter Céleste Dupuis (born 1801).

Early life

She was baptized Rosalie Monique at St. James on 5 May 1778, the daughter of Thomas Theriot and Agnes Daigle; her godparents were Jacque Melanzon and Monique Dupuys, from whom she took her second name. She was the fourth of at least nine children, and grew up at St. James with brothers and sisters whose baptisms moved from French into Spanish as the colony’s clergy changed.

Marriage and family

On 17 February 1800, at St. James, she married Pierre Dupuis, son of Joseph Dupuis and Marie Poirier; her father was one of the witnesses.

The couple’s first children were baptized at St. James: Céleste in 1801, with her grandmother Agnes Daigle as godmother, a son, Elisée, baptized as Elisa in 1803, and Henriette Hélène in 1804. Henriette Hélène was buried in August 1805 at fifteen months. A son, Alexandre, was baptized at Donaldsonville in 1807.

Sylvestre was born on 2 May 1810, one of twins, and a compiled history by Steven A. Cormier says the other twin, a boy, died at birth. Her daughter Uranie was born in 1815, and Roseline, born 24 February 1817, was a twin of Doralise. Two sons, Pierre (1812–1815) and Joseph (1819–1820), died young. Her daughter Céleste married into the Cormier family of St. Martin Parish, and a daughter married at St. Martinville in 1847, which suggests the family moved west in the later part of Rosalie’s life.

Widowhood and estate

As his widow, Rosalie petitioned the St. Martin Parish court on 5 September 1833 to open her husband’s succession, estate No. 734, calling him “late of the parish of St. Martin.” The estate was divided into seven equal shares, one for each of the seven children who survived him. She told the court she did not wish to take the tutorship of the three minor daughters, so a family meeting chose their tutors: Elisée became tutor of his sister Roseline, and Michel Cormier fils became tutor of Uranie and Doralise.

By 1850 she was living in St. Martin Parish, aged 75, in the household of her daughter Uranie and her son-in-law, Dalcide (Joseph Dulecide) Guidry.

Notes

No record of her death has yet been found. A published abstract of the Breaux Bridge church records gives her death as 20 December 1867, aged 88, but the register itself is still to be found. Most compiled online family trees repeat that year with no source attached.

Cormier’s compiled history gives the 1810 twin birth at Grand Pointe, and transcribed Louisiana birth entries give both Doralise and Roseline the birth day 24 February 1817.
