C. ST. GERMAIN, Lake- Arthur.-C. St. German, planter, was born in St.
Martinsville, Louisiana, 1854. He is the son of Charles and Aurelia 
(Gauthier) St. Germain, the former a native of France, the latter a native of
Louisiana. Charles St. Germain came to Louisiana when young, and for forty years
was a merchant in St. Martinsville. He died in 1879. The mother of our
sketch is still living in St. Martin parish.
C. St. Germain is one of a family of three children.  His brother, Raymond, is a
planter of St. Martin parish. His sister,  Marcelite, resides with her mother.
He was reared in St. Martinsville, and educated in the schools of that place. He
was for a period of eleven years engaged in the drug business in St.
Martinsville, which he discontinued, however,  on account of failing health.
Afterward he moved to where he now resides in 1882, and has since given his
attention to agricultural pursuits.
Mr. St. Germain was married, in 1879, to Ludivine Ledoux, daughter of Vallery
Ledoux. They are the parents of five children, three sons and two -daughters:
Charles, Lucien, Anatole, Henry and Aimee.  Mr. St. Germain and wife are
members of the Catholic church.
