General:

Per The Louisiana Historical Quarterly - Index to Spanish Judicial Records of Louisiana
"I, Father Antonio de Sedella, Capuchin monk, Vicar General, ad interim, of the Province of Louisiana and Parish Priest of the Church of St Louis of New Orleans, certify in due form that in one of the Books of Baptisms, on page 58, there is an entry of the following tenor:
In the year one thousand seven hundred and sixty-nine, on the seventh day of September, I, the undersigned, baptized, with the ordinary ceromonies of the Church, Jeanne Francoise, born the fourteenth day of the month of August of the present year, of Jacqueline, a mulattress, a slave of Mr. Lemelle, the master, who has declared to me that he wishes the said Jeanne Francois to be baptized as free. The god-father was Mr. Jean Baptiste Francois de Macarty and the god-mother was Miss Jeanne Francoise de Macarty, who signed with me, the day and year as above. Father Dagobert, Parish Priest; Macarty; Le Bretton; Lemelle.
This agrees with its original, which remains in the book of this Parish Church, to which I refer, and to which I attest New Orleans, on July the twenty-sixth of the year one thousand seven hundred and eighty-five.
(Signed) Father Antonio de Sedella. (Official Seal.)
