Jean Nestor "John" Bellande (1852-1895) was apparently a wanderer. His profession is unknown, as is his marital status. His addresses were recorded in the Bellande Family Bible, without dates, as Prudhomme City in St. Landry Parish, Louisiana (this place no longer appears on current maps but was shown on a map from 1880), and 518 1/2 Carcroft (?) between St. Andrew and St. Mary Street in New Orleans.
Jean also lived in or visited Houston, Texas, where his youngest sister Zoe and her family resided. Why either of them went there is unknown. In any case, Jean died there on April 5, 1895, of consumption. He was buried in Ocean Springs. He had been a member of the Knights of Pythias. No descendants were mentioned in the 1926 land settlement.
The information on Jean Nestor Bellande was researched and written in 1989 by Heidi Balje Good. Heidi was born in Germany in 1947. She married Paul Good whose great grandmother was Zoe Willamine Bellande (b. 1863). Zoe was the youngest daughter of Joseph H. Bellande (b. 1813) in Marseille, and Roseline LaFauce (b. 1821) probably at Vieux Biloxy (Ocean Springs). Paul and Heidi Good reside in the Sultanate of Oman were Paul is employed with the Petroleum Development of Oman, a joint venture between Shell Oil and the Omani Government. Their children are: Sebastian (b. 1975), Adriane (b. 1979), Marian (b. 1982), and Elisabeth (b. 1983). Heidi received her Doctorate in Biology from UCLA.
