!LAND-CENSUS: Mrs. Stephen Roy Campbell (Marie Pilkington), "Bergeron and Arceneaux and Other Families," in NEW ORLEANS GENESIS; vol. 8, no. 30 (Mar 1969); p. 111. On the 1766 census of Cabahanoce (St. James, LA), Jean Baptiste BERGERON, Sr. was living on Sec. 64, in Welcome. Among children we find: Marin; Marie; Mathurin; Jean Baptiste, Jr. (born 1750, died 1806). Jean Jr. acquired Sec. 35, which was located on the upper end of what became "Welcome Plantation." In 1755 [sic, should be 1775] he married Marie FOREST, and son Michael was born in 1776. Michael became owner of Sec. 63, land below his father's.
