Notes |
- BIRTH:
- Unsourced information conveyed by John D. Sellier to F. Anthony (Bolo) Krogh in the was that her name was Elizabeth Jeanne Faucour Sellier.
- Consistent with the naming of his children seen in two land sales from 1849-1850. The oldest child (assuming the names are given in order of age) is Jeanne Adelaide (corresponding to the name of Francois's mother). The second daughter is Jeanne Elizabeth, who might have been named after his wife.
- Pending further research, the name Elizabeth is tentatively assigned to this first spouse.
DEATH:
In the Census of 1851, the oldest member of the "Sellier Faucourt" family in the Ward of Aricagua is from 40-49 years in age, and the next age range (30-39 years) has two persons in it. It seems unlikely that the first person is the mothere second two persons, yet the description of the marital status of the persons in the family (only one married person, hence a widow or widower) makes it clear that Jeanne Suzanne Ach? is being enumerated. There are also four children under the age of ten. This configuration strongly suggests two marriages and two sets of children. If that is the case, given that Francois was not alive in August 1849, his first wife must have died no later than 1845, and perhaps earlier than 1840.
