Information from this book: Gertrude Elizabeth CLEGHORN Josserand - (Mrs. Guy D. Josserand), L'Histoire de la Famille Josserand en U.S.A. (The History of the Josserand Family in the U.S.A.), (1972)
Page 1: "Pierre Josserand; b. 1802 in France; d. 30 Sept. 1867 in Harris Co. Texas; m. before 1835 to Jeanne (Name unknown); Jeanne Josserand; b. 1806 in France; d. 4 May 1876 in Harris Co. Texas; Both interred in Kuehn Cemetery (Dates from tombstones)."

Note1: There is a grave marker that has fallen into a collapsed grave next to Jeanne Josserand. We assume it is Pierre Josserand's grave marker. At one time, Rebecca Ewing Peterson was working on fishing out the grave marker and filling in the grave.

Note 2:
People are attaching these birth records to their Ancestry trees, but I do not see a clear match, especially considering what little information is available. Compared to the Josserand book, Either of these could be correct, but neither are the right year, 1802. If these are the only two records in all of France, maybe one is correct, but I don't see a clear match.
