Gulf of Darien...

If one searches through the parish registers digitized at ANOM's site for a while, one can sometimes detect generations of the same family. In this case, it appears to be that of 2 generations of "illegitimate" Indiens born in the Sud of Saint Domingue. The mother, Marie Anne, was baptized in 1759. Of her ethnic origin, we are told her mother was from the Gulf Darien.

However, by 1788, when Jean Antoine was baptized in Aquin, Marie Anne was apparently no longer residing in Torbeck. Indeed, the baptismal record of her son suggests that an investigation into her origin was conducted, confirming Indian heritage. Yet, a look at the 1759 record of her baptism does not specify the ethnic origin of her father, just as the father of her son is unidentified. One wonders if these "Indiens" were more likely mestizos or mixed-race individuals. Of course, it is possible there was another Marie Anne of "Indian" origin who was the mother of Jean Antoine.
