Newspaper abstracts 1825-1875 NICHOLAS THEVENIN Departed this life in Green township, last week, Nicholas Thevenin, Esq., in his 80th year. The deceased was a native of France, and one of the 500 French emigrants who located at Gallipolis in the year 1790. Out of that number but 6 persons yet remain. Submitter Note: Nicholas Thevenin, born 1771 in France, died 20 Feb. 1850 Gallia Co. Oh. Burial is in Centenery Cemetery Gallia, Co. Ohio, next to him is his third wife, Mary (Loucks) Thevenin. He crossed the Atlantic on the American ship Pennsylvania (Capt. Harding) from Le Harve, France and reached Philadelphia on Feb. 26th. 1790. He then came overland to what is now Gallipolis, Ohio. Source for the ship he sailed on from Joselyne Zanelli, "LeClos Mougeot" 8, rue de Villeneuve a French researcher on the Frenchmen of Gallipolis.Ohio. Just south of Gallipolis is the town of Thivener, which was named after Nicholas Thevenin, when the permit reached Gallipolis for the town to be named for Nicholas his last name was spelled THIVENER on the permit. Many of his descendants spell it that way to day, others the French spelling and still others spell it Tivener or Tivner. According to the standard work by Dauzat on French names, Thivenin or Thevenin are variants on the name "Etienne" or "Stephen." They are two of several possible diminutives for the name (in effect "Little Steve"). By: Rev. Albert Ledoux.

Francis Collin Thevenin Sr. (1792-1893) French 500 Francis Collin Thevenin Jr. (1834-1909) Gallipolis Tribune Newspaper, 24 January 1893 COLLIN THEVENIN Mr. Collin Thevenin died at the residence of Robert Harrison near Yellow Town, aged 101 years. He was the son of Nicholas Thevenin, one of the French settlers of ancient Gallipolis. Mr. Thevenin was perhaps the oldest resident of Gallia County. His funeral services took place Monday. Gallipolis Tribune Roll # 2587 year of 1893. Columbus Historical Society. COLLIN THEVENIN Collin Thevenin lived near Yellow Town, terminated this life, Sunday, January 22, 1893, at the old age of 101 years. He died at the residence of Robt. Harrison, where he had made his home for several years. He had a home of his own up to a short time before his death near the place where he died, which he sold. He left children as follows: Collin, James, Robert, Absolem, Taylor; Mrs Thomas Dale and Mrs. Abby Shultz, living on Kanawha. Mrs Thevenin died several years ago in the neighborhook of 75 years of age. Rev. Jesse Ingles, from whom we gather these facts says he attended the wedding of Mr. & Mrs. Thevenin when he was 16 years of age. At that time Mr. Thevenin was 36 years old and Mr. Ingles 16. Mr Ingels is now 81. He lived in sight of Mr. Thevnein's home for forty or more years. He describes Mr. Thevenin as a man who never made much display in the world. He was very excitable and passionate, impulsive, but soon over it. he was of small stature, not weighing over 135 pounds. He was industrious and of good habits. He never accumulated great deal but mad a good living. His education was limited, but he stood well among his neighbors. He had a son who died in the war---John and for whose loss he drew a pension of $12.00 per month. As for himself he was very hearty and rugged. he came here from the French Grant and was a miller and a farmer. He was a great fisherman and for twenty years fished half of his time. Once when he was fishing a man accidentally shot him through the arm, but he kept on fishing. This happened on Mr. Ingles' place. He was very successful as a fisherman. he used tobacco all of his life. he attended every election but for the past six years went about very little. He was first a whig and then a Republican and rampant in politics. He liked to hunt to some extent, but fishing was his strong hold for pastime. Mr. Ingles has the gun that Mr. Thevenin had made when he was a boy. He was very courageous and was afraid of nothing, and would fight at the drop of a hat. He was laid to rest in the Harrison graveyard close to where he had lived, his greatest honor in this life being his long allotted years. Submitter note: "Collin" or "Cal" as he was always called his birth name is Francis Collin Thevenin, Sr. b: 25 Feb 1792 in Gallipolis, Gallia Co, Ohio d: 22 Jan 1893 in Gallia Co, Oh. he married to Mary Ann White b: 15 Feb 1808 in ?Va m: Abt. 1826 in Gallia Co, Ohio d: 27 Mar 1887 in Gallia Co.

Nicholas Thevenin II. died a prisioner of war at Florence, North Carolina. due to lung fever. His younger brother, John C. Thevenin, died after leaving the Florence Prison Stockade in between Florence and Willimington, N.C. The report is that he starved to death. Gallipolis Daily Tribune dated Saturday 23 October, 1909 DEATH TO MR. THEVENIN Mr. Francis Collin Thevenin in his 75th year died Friday, 22 October, 1909. He resided on Garfield Avenue this city, and died of consumption. He was born in this county and was the son of Collin & Mary Ann, his father being a native of France.

Submitter note: The person who gave the information for Mr. Thevenin, was mistaken on his fathers birth place. Collin (Francis Collin Thevenin, Sr.) was born 1792 in Gallipolis, Ohio it was his grandfather Nicholas Thevenin, born 1771 in France. The brother named as Abner is incorrect, it was Absolem Thevenin. The spelling on the minister name is unclear on the copy from the newspaper. Submitted by: William & Donna M.
