Louis Jean Marie Bourdon (also called Louis J. M. Bourdon or Louis J. Bourdon) was born May 4 1796 on France's island of Guadeloupe and thus was of French nationality. The French Antilles Island is in the Caribbean.

His wife was Marie "Virginia" Charlotte Cherot Dumaine, although Dumaine often is omitted. (Her nickname also is stated as "Virginie."

They were Catholic.

They immigrated to the United States in about 1848 and were living in St. Louis County, Missouri, by 1849. They probably immigrated with many French who came to the U.S.in 1848 because political upheaval arose as Guadeloupe ceased being a French Republic.

Louis lived in Missouri 7 years before he died.
He died of bronchitis on May 30, 1857, in St. Louis County, Mo., at age 60.

It is unknown whether they brought children named Bourdon to St. Louis and that information is sought!
