The 1840 census also reveals that a female between the ages of 50 to 59 was living in the same household. This would most likely be his first wife, Jeanne Marie. This assumption is made because his second wife Susan appears in the household in the 1850 census.

Leaves LeRay farm to son Joseph Bichet (102 acres) He also left $500.00

Occupation:

(a page on old French occupations).

Journalier, manouvrier, brassier are apparently the same occupation, just called differently in different areas.
It appears that it can cover various things, depending on locality. It seems to suggest a "daily" worker - if in a rural area, someone who helped out at the harvest and otherwise took odd jobs here and there working for farmers, perhaps also having a small amount of land to work themselves, or another secondary job such as weaving to cover the winter months. If in a town, someone who took jobs by the day as and when they came up.

Hello,

My name is Paul Kelly. I have been conducting my family history research for more than 30 years.

I was quite disappointed to discover that this item had already been purchased (by yourself):
http://www.delcampe.net/page/item/id,246753567,var,70-Haute-Saone--Champagney-Ronchamp-inteacute;ressante-lettre-posteacute;e-de-Philadelphie-Etats-unis-1827-,language,E.html

From the description of this letter, I think it contains the names of two of my ancestors: (Jacque Bichet and Marie Angelique Poivey).

I would very much like to have a digital copy of this letter.

Would you be so kind as to provide it to me? I would be very grateful to you if you did this.

Please visit my genealogy web site to view the details of my Bichet/Poivey ancestors here:
