ATTAKAPAS SPANISH MILITIA


Mr. C. Robert Churchill became president of the Louisiana Society, Sons of the American Revolution, in 1916. Mr. Churchill soon became impressed with the fact that there were numerous descendants in Louisiana who were eligible for membership in both the Sons of the American Revolution and the Daughters of the American Revolution by virtue of Galvez's attacks upon the British at Baton Rouge, Mobile and Pensacola in 1779, 1780 and 1781. The result of his quest for proof of this was an unpublished manuscript which is entitled: S. A. R, Spanish Records; Spanish-English War, 1779-1783.


There were originally five copies of the manuscript. The original was revised in 1925. Microfilm copies of the revision are now extant, one being in Stephens Memorial Library at the University of Southwestern Louisiana. Miss Pearl Mary Segura, Reference Librarian at Stephens Memorial Library, had the entire manuscript transcribed by type from the microfilm. Very generously, she made the portions of the transcriptions pertaining to the Attakapas District available to me for inclusion in this work.


It should be remembered that the men included in these lists were militia men and that in addition to them there were other men in Louisiana who served in the Spanish regular army and whose descendants are eligible for membership in the D. A. R. and S. A. R.

ATTAKAPAS MILITIA CENSUS OF 1792


In the summer of 1961, about the time I started collecting data for this work, Mr. L. C. Landry, Jr., of New Iberia was browsing around the courthouse at St. Martinville. Thumbing through the old volumes of the Original Acts he came across the militia census of 1792. It was not dated, but a recapitulation which was quite similar followed closedly upon the census and was dated August 6, 1792. It seemed reasonable to Mr. Landry, and to me, that while it may not have been concluded on the same date, at least it was around August, 1792. Mr. Landry photographed the census from Original Acts Book 14 (it being folio 142), and very kindly let me have a copy for this work.

FEDERAL CENSUS OF 1810


Federal censuses have been taken at ten-year intervals since 1790, under the terms of the Federal Constitution. The originals of the census reports are in the National Archives in Washington, D. C. Microfilm copies of these reports are available in many libraries throughout the country. Since the area comprising most of the state of Louisiana was not acquired by the United States until 1803, the first Federal Census which included inhabitants in this area was that of 1810. As has been indicated, the Territory of Orleans was in 1805 divided into 12 counties which were superceded two years later by the 19 parishes. Following is a listing of the householders in the 1810 census for Attakapas (or St. Martin) Parish, one of the 19.


A question mark in parenthesis (?) following a name indicates that it appeared unclear for some reason; usually, the ink had faded to such an extent that the name was not quite legible. Straight lines for either a given name or a surname indicate that that part of the name was illegible. In some few instances both names were illegible, and in these cases the names have been left off the list entirely.
