mother, Eugenie Dubalin and other family members. Thelma could not remember her grandfather Lannes first name, but the Baptismal record of Marie Jeanne Lannes, in Our Lady of the Gulf Catholic Church in Bay St. Louis, MS, states that “Marie was the daughter of Ramond Lannes and Andrinne Bordage, bom February 2, 1866, Godparents being Jean Bordage and Mary Saucier.” This Marie Lannes was an aunt of Thelma Dubalin.
The first record of Andrezine in America is on November 22, 1855 when she and her brother, John Bourdages’ ship arrives in New Orleans, LA from France as already discussed. The next record of Andrezine Bordages is in the 1860 census of Harrison Co., MS. This census shows her living with her brother, John Bordages and family. This census lists her as being “A. Bordaz, age 28, female, born in France and dressmaker by profession." Daisy Bordages told us that she remembered hearing what a fine seamstress her grandfather's sister was.
Andrezine was single and living in Pass Christian, MS in the year 1860 and her second child, Marie, is listed in the Bay St. Louis Baptismal records, thus Andrezine probably married Raymond Lannes, in Pass Christian. We have not been able to locate her marriage record or the baptismal record of her first child in the various church and civil records in this area.
From all indications, Raymond and Andrezine Lannes moved to New Orleans,
LA sometime after the birth of Marie, in 1866 and remained there until their death. They seemed to have done well and kept fairly close contact with their relatives in Bay St. Louis and Waveland. They had the following children:
I.	Naomie Lannes - married John Poirot and resided in New Orleans, LA. She was
bom on January 18, 1864, according to Clem's Paper and is buried in Metairie
Cemetery in Metairie, LA. They had:
A.	Edna Poirot - married Octave J. Rousset and resided in New Orleans, LA.
We were told that they had only one child, Octave Jr.
B.	Irine Poirot - married Harry Bushnell and resided in New Orleans, LA. They had no children.
C.	Naomie Poirot - bom on December 25, 1889 and died on January 15, 1968. She married William Polders and resided in New Orleans, LA. They had one child named, Shirley who married Martin Garcia.
D.	Gilbert Poirot - bom on November 25, 1891 and died in April 1973. He married Ida Figallo and resided in New Orleans, LA. They had:
1.	Madeline Poirot - married William Dunn and resided in New Orleans.
2.	John Poirot - resided in Lafayette, LA.
3.	Raymond Poirot - resided in New Orleans, LA.
