[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw several posts from Haitian-Americans that were excited because apparently these same grandparents were Haitian. If there is any truth to that, perhaps they went from there to New Orleans and then Chicago? [/quote] It looks like his grandfather was probably born in Haiti, but genealogists haven't found his birth records from there yet. And his grandmother had old roots in the New Orleans creole community - her mother was baptized in St. Louis Cathedral in the French Quarter in 1840. Lots of people are working on it. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/us/pope-creole-roots-new-orleans.html?unlocked_article_code=1.GE8.K6BB.qR_GJGKSFjK-&smid=url-share [/quote]
