Descendants of Drouet Mourant

Descendants of Drouet Mourant

This tree was added to the site in 2010. It was expanded in 2012 and 2014 and reviewed in 2020. It was subjected to a more extensive review in 2021, when more details were added. The top portion of the tree and the bottom section were reviewed separately and further investigation is still needed. A further review was undertaken in 2022

In the submitted tree Joshua Mourant and Marie Millais at generation 9 were shown to have had three sons named Joshua, one born in 1747, two years before their marriage, one in 1751, who died in the same year, and another born in 1751. The first and third of these are shown to have married and had children and further descendants.

Further research suggests that the Joshua Mourant who married Elizabeth de Rue was the son of Joshua and Marie and was born in 1753, two years after an earlier Joshua who died in infancy. The Joshua who married Marie Dolbel highlighted in red , is possibly the son of Philippe Mourant and Rachel Mourant, born in 1743

Some records appear as Morant but we have standardised on Mourant throughout

Record Search

If you want to search for records for any name in this family tree, or for any other family name, just click below on the first letter of the family name you are interested in. This will open a new tab in your browser giving you a list of family names beginning with that letter, for which there are baptism records in our database of half a million church and public registry records.

You can also select marriages or burials. Select the name you want and when the list of records is displayed you can easily refine the search, choosing a single parish, given name(s) and/or start and end dates.

The records are displayed 30 to a page, but by selecting the yellow Wiki Table option at the top left of the page you can open a full, scrollable list. This list will either be displayed in a new tab or a pop-up window. You may have to edit the settings of your browser to allow pop-up windows for www.jerripediabmd.net. For the small number of family names for which a search generates more than 1,500 records you will have to refine your search (perhaps using start or end dates) to reduce the number of records found.
