June 27, 1763 and second to Elias Giro (Giraud) in May of 1789. This Elias, a native of Bordeaux, France, married a second time in 1808 to a widow.
As already stated Antoine, ends up in St. Bernard Parish in 1770, and this is the last record we have on him.
Madeleine Rouger (Roge, Roger, Rouge, Rouget, Rodger) was born to Mathieu Rouger and Simonne Servanne in the church parish of St. Sauveur, City and Diocese of LaRochelle, France. This information was taken from her marriage record to Negrier which is in the Mobile, Alabama Cathedral (Marriage Book I, p. 19a). Other descendants of Madeleine Rouger (thru the Burat family), have found her baptismal record in LaRochelle, and it revealed her full name as “Marie Madeleine Rouge,” bom on May 8, 1707. Parents listed were “Mathieu Rouge and Simonne Servant.” They married in LaRochelle on May 22, 1706.
Mathieu Rouge was bom in LaRochelle around 1674 to Nicolas Rouge and Madeleine Mesnard. Simonne was bom around 1676 in LaRochelle to Simon Servant and Madeleine Chauvet.
Nicolas Rouge was bom around 1653 in LaRochelle to Mathieu Rouge and Marguerite Basil. Nicolas died there on April 23, 1710. Madeline Mesnard was born in 1658 in LaRochelle and died on October 6, 1737. She was the daughter of Nicolas Mesnard and Vincente Guerineau.
Simon Servant was the son of Alexander Servant and Jeanne Chailiot. Madeleine Chauvent was the daughter of Francois Chauvet and Jeanne Biais.
Mathieu Rouge was bom around 1627 and died on August 9, 1707 in LaRochelle. Marguerite Basil was the daughter of Jean Basil and Marie Reine.
Madeleine Rouger came to Mobile in 1718. French Archives records show the ship “Marie,” leaving LaRochelle, France on May 23, 1718. On board is a “Mathieu Roge, Simonne Servan (his wife), and Marguerite Roge, all from LaRochelle.” From all indications, this “Marguerite Roge” and our Madeleine Rouger is one and the same person - someone simply miscopied the name or gave it wrong. Anyway, we know Mathieu Rouger had only one child that came to America with him, because Mathieu shows up in the 1721 census of Fort Louis, as a “shoemaker, with a wife, and one child.”
On May 11, 1725, Madeleine Rouger married Guillaume Jean Burat in Mobile (record in Mobile Cathedral). Burat was born in Saleure, Diocese of Basle, Switzerland. He was a soldier, a corporal in De Lusser’s Company. He and his wife are listed in the 1726 census of Mobile. By this union, Madeleine Rouger Burat had the following children in the Mobile area:
1.	Unnamed son, Burat - bom November 26, 1728.
2.	Joseph Guillaume Burat - bom January 13, 1731.
3.	Jean Pierre Burat - born March 3, 1733.
