  Notes	He was a merchant who moved to the city from his village in Fronsac. At some point later in life he decided to marry a woman with whom he could have a family in the Caribbean. He married Marguerite, who was 20 years younger, and promptly sailed for Port-au-Prince. He went abroad the year after his marriage, in 1773, and then again in 1782, and 1787. Marguerite Endatte is listed for an embarquement in 1774. Since Jean left the previous year, and his daughter Angelique was born back in Bordeaux, he must have left his family behind for a while. They then joined him the following year.
