BIOGRAPHY:
BOUQUIO
The name Bouquio has many spellings in the 200 years of records examined:
Bouquio, Buckjon, Bugion, Buguion, Pouquio, Besquion, Bouquian, Buckio, Bouquis
and Bouqueau. For simplification, the spelling "Bouquio" is used throughout this report.
In 1657 there was a French Reformed Lutheran Church founded in Otterberg,
Pfalz, Germany. This church served the emigrants from France that escaped the Catholic
domination and helped repopulate the area devastated by the 30 Years War. It is here
where the first records were found of the Bouquios. The Bouquio lineage is shown in
Figure 7 .
Daniel Bouquio (1) was bom in Otterberg in 1651. The next three generations of
Bouquios remained in Otterberg. While Otterberg was well north of the border of France
and not under French domination during those times, the family given names remained
largely French.
What prompted Pierre Guillaume Bouquio (4) and family to pick up and move
some 40 miles south is not known. It was in Busenberg where, on 19 October 1782,
Jacque (Jakob) Bouquio (5) was bom. Jacque (5) moved on to Vorderweidenthal in a
neighboring village where he married Christina Schutz. Unfortunately there are no
Vorderweidenthal records for the years 1798-1816 when they would have been married,
and when most oftheir children were bom.
Jacque (5) and Christina Schutz were the parents of Maria Catherine Bouquio (6)
bom 30 May 1809 in Vorderweidenthal. Her birthday was found in the Ferdinand,
Indiana church records. Not all other records agree with the birth year. On 4 June 1826,
Maria Catherine (6) had a daughter, Elisabethe bom in Vorderweidenthal, Pfalz,
Germany. The church record says Catherine (6) "is in her fifteenth year". This would
make Catherine (6) bom 1811. Elisabethe's father is not mentioned. Almost two years
later, Catherine (6) married Georg Tuchscherer and moved to Climbach, Bas-Rhin,
France. Apparently Elizabethe came along and is mentioned as a daughter of Georg and
Catherine (6) in all subsequent records.
Catherine came to America with husband Georg Tuchscherer and children in
1835 as noted earlier.
Not covered in Chapter 1 is an unusual case of no births found between 1835 and
1840. Once in Indiana Catherine (6) continued to have children. Her last child, Maria
Magdalena, was bom in Febmary 1848. Maria died 22 September 1848 to be followed
by Catherine (6) seven days later.
