Biography
Name:
Jean Lefevre/[1]
Birth:
Jean Lefevre (aka Lefèvre, LeFevre) was born say 1618 or earlier. His parents are not known but as he was later called a "bourgeois and a weaver" they were likely middle-class artisans. Textile weaving and tapestry work were valued professions in Artois and the neighboring "low country" (an area encompassing the north coast of France & today's Belgium) in the 17th Century.
LeFevre or Le Fevre are spelling variations. There is often an accent (è) in French: "Lefèvre" but as this profile is in English, it was omitted.[2]
French Huguenot records are notoriously missing, as many local Protestant registers were destroyed or lost during the 1560-1780 period of government-sponsored anti-Protestant persecution as French kings tried to enforce state sponsorship of the Roman Catholic religion, forcing thousands of Reformed Protestants to emigrate, be imprisoned or abjure their faith.[3]
Marriage & Family:
Say 1633 or earlier, Jean Lefevre, marriedJeanne L'Emond, aka "Le Mont" or "Leman," who was born say 1662 or earlier. Jean Lefevre was later called a "bourgeois and weaver," indicating a middle-class social standing. The couple had 7 presumed children:[4]
1Jean Lefevre, "Jr.," b: ABT 1641
2Catherine Lefevre b: ABT 1648
3Pierre Lefevre b: 15 NOV 1656 in Mannheim, Palatinate, Germany
4Jacques Lefevre b: 27 JAN 1659, Mannheim, Palatinate, Germany
5Jeanne Lefevre b: 7 OCT 1660 in Mannheim, Palatinate, Germany
6Michel Lefevre b: 25 MAR 1663, Mannheim, Palatinate, Germany
7Marie Madeleine Lefevre b: 21 APR 1665 in Mannheim, Rhineland Palatinate, Germany
As can be seen from the above-cited list and church records in Mannheim, between 1648 and 1652 Jean Lefevre, his wife and their two oldest children, Jean and Catherine, settled in Mannheim, in the Protestant-ruled German Palatinate. France's King Louis XIV was crowned in 1643; his chief minister was the Roman Catholic Cardinal Mazarin. Louis XIV was determined that his subjects would be Roman Catholic, as he was. Official persecution of Protestants reached new heights during his reign.[5]
Jean Lefevre, called "the younger," was married to Barbara Huet on 14 September 1659 in Mannheim's French/Walloon Reformed Church. On 22 April 1668, Barbara, now called a widow, married Paul Sechehay, widower and school-master, in Mannheim.[6]
Death:
Jean Lefevre, called "the older," died in Mannheim, probably during the Plague of July 1666, which killed half the town's population, including Jean "the younger" Lefevre. Jeanne l'Emond, his widow, re-married to Roger ("Royer" or "Rogier/Roger") Broucard, b: 1641 in Mouscron, Hainault, Spanish Netherlands (today's Belgium), also a recent Plague widower, on 18 December 1666, at the French/Walloon Church in Mannheim.[7]On the same day, Roger's younger brother, Bourgon Broucard, b: ca. 1638, married Jean Lefevre's eldest daughter,Catherine Lefevre, about 18 years old.[8]
