Description
"A cemetery was established at the site as early as 1723.[8] It was commonly known as "Red Church Cemetery," or "Little Red Church Cemetery" after the Little Red Church was constructed. It is now the St. Charles Borromeo Cemetery.
The Destréhan Family tombs are located in the cemetery. Louisiana state senator Jean Noël Destréhan, who died in 1823, is buried in the cemetery, but his grave was lost due to the shifting Mississippi River.[10] He is the namesake for the town, one-time owner of Destrehan Plantation, and the first U.S. Senator elected from Louisiana, along with Allan B. Magruder.
Nicolas Noël Destréhan (d. 1848), fourth son of Jean Noël Destréhan, and another son René Noël Destréhan (1807-1836), are buried in the cemetery; as is their sister, Marie Eléonore "Zelia" Destréhan Henderson
The oldest remaining burial plot is of Elizabeth Dubord, who died in 1777. This plot also contains the remains of François Trepagnier, who died in the 1811 German Coast Uprising" (WIKIPEDIA)
