Hi, im trying to trace my family history but my family last name is spelt 'Hillaire' and originate from the caribbean mainly Trinidad and Grenada. Im not getting anywhere and all i find are families with the last name spelt "Hilaire" but they are from the same areas which is confusing me. Maybe we just added an extra "L" haha. But i know my last name came from somewhere in France too.

My grandfather, Emile Hilaire (same name as his father) moved to US in early 1900's...there were 12-13 children. I have been in contact with two of my second cousins (once removed)...their grandmother was my grandfather's sister. I too would like to know more about the Hilaire's in France. I hope to travel to France in the next few years to visit & would like to meet some Hilaire's. Having said that, I don't speak french, so it might not be very easy to communicate.

Mais oui, cher! It's the same family. My great grandfather Papa Felix was Voison's cousin. Do you have any other information on the family? I've got lots of bits and peices that go all the way back to the early 1800's at Oakland Plantation where the family was tenant farmers after the Civil War.

Sorry that to say I haven't been online in awhile. That is very interesting to know that Hilaire means what it means. Hopefully we will be able to piece together our family history.

Hi, everybody
First, i'm sorry for my poor english but i'm french :-)
I'm happy to see that i probably have some cousins in USA and in Great Britain !
I have started my family tree and the HILAIRE family history probably began in "Corrèze" department (FRANCE)
And the meaning of "HILAIRE" is : "l'homme qui rit" = "the man who is laughing"...

Hi Alicia,

Ricky is my grandmother's nephew. Edith has 6 children: Errol(58), Brenda(56), Marie(50), Michael(48), Marlo(46), and Blackie(44). I just emailed Emmerrier, and I told her that if you still needed info. for school or just for your own knowledge to call me. I called my grandmother last night to confirm that we are related. Do you know Evelyn HILAIRE Barre? She lives in Edgard, LA. She knows everything about the family, so she could help you too. Where do you live? How old are you? I'm 23yrs. old and I live in Inglewood, CA. I have three sisters: Kimberly(34), Eunice(30), Errolyn(26), and myself, LaJeune(23).

My father

My father is Ricky Hilaire and is 41 yrs old. He is from Edgard also I do believe but I'm not quite sure. I do remember hearing about an Edith Hilaire though.

Helaire/Hilaire/Hulin Family

2000-05-19 16:52:29Z

Maybe we can help each other out. I am looking for information on my mothers side of the family. My mother's name is Rose Mary Helaire. She had a brother named John Helaire who died in the service on July 1973. My family is from Youngsville, La. We do have Native American Ancestry that could go as far as Oklahoma. My mother, Rose, had a mother named Mable Hilaire. She spelled her name Hulin on her birth certificate because she could not read and write. Mable's mother's name was Leontine Hilaire. If you can shed some light on all of this, please e-mail me or write us at 205 Townhome Loop Lafayette, La. 70501.

Thankyou.

I ama looking for information about Mable Helaire/Hilaire/Hulin. She was a resident of Youngsville, La. Her mother's name was Leontine Hilaire. Mable had two children named Rose Mary Helaire and John Helaire. Mable died when Rose was about one year old. She was said to have died of Tuberculosis. No one has ever told my mother where her mother is buried or where her family is or lived. I do know that we have Cherokee and/or Blackfoot Indian heritage. Mable's last name is spelled Hulin on her birth certificate because she couldn't spell. Rose, my mother, was born in March of 1950. If any one you know has any information you can contact me at my e-mail address or writ to me or ROSE at 205 Townhome Loop Lafayette, La. 70501.

I'm not sure if you can help me but I'm trying to make a family tree for as far as I can. The only thing I know is that my grandfather's name is Warren Hilaire. We might not even be in the same family but this is the first person with my last name I have ever known so maybe. Thanks.
