A query by Robert L. Quinnett with a reply from Philippe Grangé, pgrange@sophocle.imaginet.fr, printed in Newsgroups: soc.genealogy.french on 5 May 1999, subj: Grangje=Grange? [Information on Philippe Grangé: Philippe Grangé,pgrange@univ-lr.fr, UNIVERSITE DE LA ROCHELLE, Centre Universitaire de Français Langue Etrangère, Faculté des Langues, Arts et Sciences Humaines (FLASH), 1, Parvis Fernand Braudel 17042 La Rochelle cedex 1, tél (33) 5 46 45 68 23, fax (33) 5 46 50 59 95, http://www.univ-lr.fr/flash/cufle.]--



Query by Robert L. Quinnett: Ma famille (Jean-Pierre Quinet, Marie "Granje", et huit enfants) a arrivée en les Etats-Unis de France vers 1832. Est-ce que le nom "Granje" est la même que Grange, Grangé, ou Granger? Bob.



Reply to Robert L. Quinnett from Philippe Grangé: Bonjour. En effet, je pense que c'est la même origine ; il y avait souvent des variantes dans la transcription orthographique des noms. L'orthographe "Granje" semble rare. "Granger" est la plus fréquente. (Para.) Vous savez sans doute que ce patronyme est originaire de l'ouest des Pyrénées (Béarn, Bigorre..) On suppose que nos ancêtres étaient propriétaires de granges (barns), ce qui, dans cette région montagneuse, désigne en fait la plupart des bâtiments agricoles. (Para.) C'est une des rares régions de France d'où l'on a émigré vers les Etats-Unis au début du 20e siècle. On appelait ces émigrants les "Barcelonettes" (du nom d'un village). Est-ce que votre aieule Marie Granje était une "Barcelonette"? (Para.) Meilleurs sentiments,...



Reply to Philippe Grangé by Robert L. Quinnett: Je ne sais pas, mais peut-être Marie habitée à Paris. Nous pensons que un fils de Marie, Joseph-Pierre Quinet, est né là le 26 août 1830. (Para.) Merci beaucoup pour les informations. Bob

I have discovered that de Granje is a name in the Netherlands which means that it is probably in Belgian Flanders also. Since many Quinet/Quinette live in Belgium, it is possible that Jean-Pierre and Marie came from Belgique. However, none of their descendants ever stated that. On the contrary they claimed (or seemed to claim as far as Archie Eli Quinnett was concerned) a French origin. Also, the Ozaukee County WI census shows France as place of origin. However, when they married in 1803, Belgium was part of France!: Robert L. Quinnett 5 Dec 1999.
