Notes:

Andrews, Jacques (Benjamin & Marie Hargrave) m Lucie Hayes (Opel Ch.)

James "Jacques" Andrus was born in 1760 probably in North Carolina. He was the son of Benjamin Andrus, Sr., and Marie Thornell Hayes. James came to Spanish Opelousas with his father between 1777 and 1780. James died on the 10th of February 1816.
---
James is believed to be the "Guillaume" Andrews and Lucy Hayes listed in the Vital Records Index of North America and the SW Louisiana Records by Father Hebert. The date of births of the children match those of James. The middle name of James was probably William. Guillaume or Guilmus was probably French or Spanish for William.

James married Lucy Louise Hayes in British West Florida before 1779 before coming to Spanish Opelousas. This would fit the time period between 1777 and 1780 that the Andrus family was known to arrive in Louisiana. Lucy died in St. Landry Parish sometime before 1825. Lucy has a probate or succession at the Opelousas Courthouse #350 dated 1825.

James and Lucy had the following children:

James Andrus, born 15 Nov 1792, died after 1850.
D'Autrive Claiborne Andrus, born 1775, died July 1831.
Clemence Andrus, born 2 Dec 1787, St. Landry Parish, LA.
Isabelle Andrus, born May 1780, St. Landry Parish, LA.
Sarah Celeste Andrus, born 2 Dec 1784, St. Landry Parish.
Elisa Andrus, born 7 Feb 1794, St. Landry Parish, LA.
Joseph II Andrus, born 19 Jun 1797.
Susanne Henriette Andrus, born 12 Oct 1799, St. Landry.
Raquel Andrus, born 2 Oct 1796, St. Landry Parish, LA.

The earliest record that was found of James Andrus was in a Geneology Book of all Louisiana Parishes. These books contain copies of newspapers, census data, obituraries, etc. The 1793 land census of Opelousas has a listing of James Andrus. It shows the original French and is translated.

Quarter de M. James Andrus (part of Mr. James Andrus holdings)

James Andrus 30 a.
William Wikoff 75 a.
Joseph Andrus 30 a.
Thomas Hoffbauer 10 a.
William Gilchrist 15 a.
Edward Foreman 20 a.
These men listed under James Andrus must be what we would call sharecropping.

He married Louise Hays of Pennsylvania and prospered well, although it seems his brother Joseph did better. In the 1810 census we see that the brothers and their sons and daughters ae still living close together. All are slave owners, but Jph seems to be the wealthiest, owning about 50 slaves. The 1820 census shows him with 44 slaves of various ages. Twenty-four are engaged in agriculture and 4 engaged in manufacturing, probably the fur hats mentioned on his father's page.

James married Louise "Lucy" Hayes before 1779 in British West Florida. Louise (daughter of William* "Guillermo" Hayes, II (son?) and Sarah* Celeste Bosman) was born in 1765 in Fairfax Co, Virginia; died before Feb 1825 in Opelousas, St. Landry Parish, Louisiana. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events and Attributes:

• Religion: Catholic

Notes:

Lucia Heiss - daughter of Guillermo Heiss and Celeste Bosman.
Lucy possibly was also married to a Lemuel Sloan)
Hayes, Lucy m James Andrus succ. dated Feb 1825 Opel Ct.Hse.: Succ #350

LUCY HAYES married JAMES ANDRUS before 1779 in British West, Florida. Opelousas Post lists his children and dates of baptism. See File for copy. It lists him as Guillaume so his name may have been James William or William James. Children's names and dob's match those in Southwest La. Records by Hebert. There are also some ref. to him is Hebert's books as Benjamin. Opel Census 1788 lists him with 3 men 3 women 41 cows 9 horses and 6 arpets of land.
