5.	Miguel Tartavoulle - married Ollie Padger and lived in Mobile, Alabama with children.
B.	Estelle Doby - born in 1838, as found in the 1870 New Orleans census. She married Vincent Planellas and lived in New Orleans, LA. She and her husband operated a small grocery store there. They had no children, and her body was returned to the old Doby Place for burial. Estelle died on March 3, 1893, as found in her obituary in the Sea Coast Echo newspaper.
C.	Joseph Doby - died around the year 1875, according to Mrs. Williams. He had no children and was not married. He is buried in the Doby Cemetery.
D.	Elizabeth Doby - died around the year 1875, according to Mrs. Williams.	She had
no children and was not married. She is buried in the Doby Cemetery.
E.	Elodie Doby - born in 1848, as found in the 1880 census of New Orleans.	Elodie is
also in the 1900 census as bom in October 1846. She died there in 1933. She married Peter Anglada and had at least two children: John and Albert.
F.	Raphael Doby - no one remembers him, but we found a baptismal record	in St.
Louis Cathedral that says he was bom in Pearlington, MS, on March 2, 1840. He apparently died as an infant or a child.
VI. Marcelline Celeste D’auby - bom on March 15, 1812, according to her baptismal record in St. Louis Cathedral (Baptism Book 7, p. 28b, act 160) and baptized on May 29, 1812 by a Spanish priest called Antonio de Sedella under the name “Marcelina Celeste Doby” Because of her true French ancestry, we will use the French version of her name, as she herself did in adulthood. Her godparents were Joseph Chalon represented by Don Juan Lorenzo Alpuente and Dona Celeste Perez. While the baptismal record does not state exactly where Marcelline was bom, it is relatively certain that she was bom on the D’auby place in Hancock County south of Pearlington, for her father was on this property by early 1809, according to land records. Additionally, Marcelline appears in the 1850 Hancock County census and is listed as “born in Mississippi.” In later census records of Hancock County showing her children, they also state that their mother was born in Mississippi. She was listed as belonging to St. Louis Cathedral’s Parish out of New Orleans because south Mississippi had no Church Parish of their own at that time, and it was a “missionary parish” of St. Louis Cathedral prior to 1847. Anyway, Marcelline grew up in southern Hancock County and met a young man from the Gainesville, Hancock County, MS area by the name of Lott McArthur, the son of James McArthur and Celia “Celie” Lott.
With Marcelline being a Catholic, we assume she was married by a priest and thus, the record would probably be in St. Louis Cathedral. Also, at least three of her children were baptized in St. Louis Cathedral, and these records state that they were “legitimate,” thus indicating the parents were married by a priest.
