Washington DC ROUSSEAUs 1850-1920
Posted by: colleen Date: September 30, 2001 at 10:55:36
  of 847

Info gleaned from 1920 census soundex for Washington DC:

Gustave Rousseau, age 63, born Canada. Naturalized; arrived 1890; got citizenship 1897. Wife Louise, 61 b Canada. Dau Aline E, age 35, also b. Canada

Avila Rousseau, age 56, born Quebec. “              “ 1888;       “       1893. Wife Zaida, age 56, b Quebec. Son George J, age 19, born DC; son Paul M age 17, born DC; dau Celeste A, age 15 born DC

Via 1880 soundex Wahsington DC:

Charles Rousseau, age 48, born BELGIUM. Wife Henrietta, 36, born MD; dau Barbara 16, born DC; son Charles T 8 born DC; son Francis 6 born DC; dau Marie age 2 born DC; son Ferdinand 8/12 born DC.

With Hariet (sic) Allen, relationship “si” or “se”, age 48, born DC.


The latter, Charles Rousseau, is the one I’m looking for. Anyone have any info on Rousseaus from BELGIUM? This nationality is supported in other census records and also in an application for a widows pension by Henrietta Spalding Rousseau. That application indicates she knows of no family in Belgium or anyone who knew him in Belgium.

Could this be an assumed name?

Thanks for help.
