No. 58
Edward Forman claims a tract of land, quantity not mentioned, on Bayou Queue de Tortue, by purchase of an Indian named Ashnoya, 11th Jan, 1802. The notice is unaccompanied by any evidence or document title, except the deed of sale from said Indian, passed before Louis C.DeBlanc, acting as commandant of Attakapas, stipulating that the land shall extend from one small bayou to another, where the said Indian should set pickets: it being part of the land which the seller inherited from his father, for which he was to receive from the claimant eight cows with their calves, and a beef, to be paid as soon as the boundaries should be fixed. For reasons given in reported No. 1, of Opelousas claims, this is reported as a claim which, in the opinion of the Commissioners, ought not to be confirmed.

Marriage |
8 May 1798 |
Opelousas, St. Landry Parish, Louisiana [3] |
- Foreman, Edouard, Presbyterian (Edouard & Rebecca Ravcoe of Virginia, all Presbyterians) m. 08 May 1798 Anna Perry, a Lutheran.
PERRY, Anna - of Virginia, a presbyterian (John & Penelope PERRY) m. Tuesday, 8 May 1798 Edward FOREMAN - single; a Presbyterian (Edward & Rebecca RANOE(?) - of Virginia, Presbyterians) Wits: Marguerite KREBS GRADENIGO [signs clearly "KREBS"], Jean GRADENIGO. Fr. Pedro de ZAMORA (Opel. Ch.: Marriages v. 1-B, 1787-1830,p.2)
note by ss: At the time of this marriage in 1798 there were three children already born, Julia age 9; Nathan Ephraim age 5, and Raquel age 1.
Julia's and Raquel's birth records in SW Louisiana records say they were children of Edward & Rebecca Rascoe; however, they would have been grandparents instead of parents. Edward Jr. was already 40 by the time Julia was born and 42 when Raquel was born; so it's highly unlikely they were his sisters. Dates of continuity of baptisms conclude they were daughters of Edward Jr. & Anna Perry.
Some believe they were children of a previous marriage; however it seems that they were indeed Anna's children. On their marriage day 8 May 1798, the baby Raquel, 1 y.o., was also baptized.
They had another child Isaac Pierre in 1799. Then on Nov 21, 1801, Nancy Anna herself, the baby Pierre, abt 2, and the two older Julia and Nathan Ephraim were baptized at ages 12 and 8 respectively were baptized together.
Their marriage record stated Edward Forman was single - indicating this was his first marriage.
