My Grandfather, Joachim Babin, son of Rosalia (Slave of Joseph Allegre) was baptized at St. Martin De Tours on April 2, 1865. He was born in St. Martinville on the plantation on November 10, 1864. His Godparents were Antoine and Philomine. This information was from a document I obtained from Church of St. Martin, St. Martinville, Louisiana from the Records of the Book of Slaves No. 834 1860-1865. I have a copy of the Baptismal Certificate. Can you locate the Records of the Plantation. I have been in touch with Mrs.Pointer and she has been quit helpful, but I'm still trying to find the location of that Plantation.
