PROPRIÉTÉ — Type: Sucrerie · Nom du bien rural: "Dite Romain" · Quartier: Boucan-Lafrance · Localité: Torbeck. CIRCULATION DU TITRE: PLUNKET François — Ancien propriétaire, rang 1, précision: "pour moitié" ROYER [sic; printed BOYER elsewhere on the same record] DE LA GAUTRAYE Marie-Eutrope — Ancien propriétaire, rang 2, précision: "pour l'autre moitié" PLUNKET John-Désiré — Ayant droit 1 — "Seuls héritiers de leur grand-père, ancien propriétaire" — 32.000 F, 4 indemnitaires PLUNKET Achille-Nevison — Ayant droit 2 — idem PLUNKET Marie-Louise — Ayant droit 3 — idem BOYER DE LA GAUTRAYE Marie-Eutrope — Ayant droit 4 — "ancienne propriétaire" ⭐ THE LOAD-BEARING PHRASE: "SEULS HÉRITIERS DE LEUR GRAND-PÈRE" establishes that John-Désiré, Achille-Nevison and Marie-Louise Plunket are GRANDCHILDREN of the ancien propriétaire François Plunket - i.e. it sources the chain François [1594] -> Achilles [1586] -> the three children, in one clause. "Seuls" (sole) also means these were his only surviving heirs in 1831. ⚠️ The same woman is printed ROYER in one line and BOYER in another - transcription variance within the source itself.

Titre 54514 · n° ordre 9144 · Valeur 28.500 F · décision 27/03/1832 · Registre VI · page recueil 598 · paroisse n° 41, CAP DAME-MARIE. PROPRIÉTÉ — Type: Cacaoterie · Nom du bien rural: "La Bossée ou Plunket" · Cap Dame-Marie. Ancien propriétaire: PLUNKET Jean. Ayants droit, all styled "Héritiers de l'ancien propriétaire", 28.500 F among 7: 1 WEBB William · 2 PLUNKET Georges · 3 PLUNKET John-Désiré · 4 PLUNKET Achille-Nivison · 5 PLUNKET Marie-Louisa · 6 BOYER DE LA GAUTRAYE Marie-Eutrope · 7 MARDOCAI Caroline. ⭐⭐ "MARDOCAI Caroline" = CAROLINE MORDECAI of Warrenton, North Carolina, widow of Achilles Plunkett - appearing in a Paris indemnity register under her MAIDEN name. ⚠️ Stated precisely: the register does NOT call her "veuve Plunket" and gives no relationship at all. The identification rests on the convergence - surname, given name, her co-listing with Achilles's mother and three of his children, and the published Mordecai scholarship that Achilles Plunkett of Warrenton married Caroline Mordecai and predeceased her (d. 26 Jan 1824). STRONG, not a statement in the record. ⭐ The heir list has an internal logic that needs no assumption: Achilles died in 1824 and the decision fell in 1832, so his share passed to his widow and his surviving children - which is exactly who is listed. ⬜ PLUNKET Georges and WEBB William are co-heirs who appear NOWHERE in the tree. The ancien propriétaire is JEAN Plunket, not François, and Cap Dame-Marie is in the Grand'Anse, far from Torbeck - the family held land at both ends of the colony.
