Re: arabi origin

I have a scanned copy of a marriage certificate Josef Antonio Arabi and Rita Perez, confirming his birth and parentage from Mallorca and hers from Tenerife.

I know of the Islenoes coming from the Canaries at this time, but have encountered no others from Mallorca.

Lawrence Joseph Arabie, Jan 1879 - abt 1920, Iberville Parish

Husband of Anne Eveline Lasseigne, father of Noa, Clifton, Marie, Hazel and Velma Arabie. I think I may have found his parents, but unsure. Hoping anyone can verify. Suspect parents may be Francis (Francois) Arabie and Jeannette Hahn.

The Baleric Islands would be a natural "pit stop" in the Mediteranian. I know the Moors invaded Spain once, the Islands would naturally be a "melting pot" with French, Italian, Spanish & Lebanese/Arabs sailors, fishermaen, tradesmen or soldiers.

Re: arabi origin

nrarabie — 2010-12-27 17:31:14Z

According to info I received several years ago, through work by Curless & Jessie Arabie: The Arabie name was traced back to Joseph Antonio Araby (D'Araby) - b. about 1756, died 1819 in LaFourche, LA from Majorca (Baleric Islands in the Mediteranian Sea) who married Rita Henriette Perez from the Canary Islands. I'm from the line of their son, Michel (CristoPaolo/Miguel - written both ways) Araby.

I was told that Arabie was French, but in doing the research, Arabie/Arabi/Araby comes from many different places, Spain, Argentina, Peru, Europe. I have traced my line back to Spain. I have many French-Candian ancestors and geographically, French is not out of the picture. In my research, I have found a reference to the name originally coming from Kuwait (still trying to verify that!). In French, the name translates to "Saudi" or the other variation L'Arabie, "The Saudi". I would love to hear other's thoughts on this.
