St. Charles Parish was formed in 1785. Below are all the Pitre occurrences within the 1920 St. Charles Parish census. I accessed this census through Usgenweb > Louisiana > St. Charles Parish, where a complete index and transcription has been put online by William Oullette. Following Mr. Oullette’s index, I then viewed the actual pages. The transcription and any errors are therefore mine. The ‘probably’ column is my judgment as to the identity of the family.

District 31, ward 1 - None –

District 32, ward 2 - includes St. Charles Parish Prison - None -

District 33, ward 3 - None -

District 34, ward 4

Transcription:	Probably
Alonza M. Pitre 49 house carpenter, wife Josephine St. Amant 48, Eddie 15, Velma 2 11/12 grandchild [p. 1B]	**
Alonza Pitre Jr. 24 house carpenter (widowed), Chas. Dewey 32 boarder, swamp laborer (divorced) [p. 1B]	**
John Pitre 46 swamp wood dealer, boarder [p. 1B]	**
Fred Pitre 38 postmaster (post office), wife Alice Langley 22 [p. 1B]	**

** Alonza M. Pitre, John Pitre & Fred Pitre are most probably brothers as the census records their fathers as Spanish-born, and their mothers as German-born. They are not Acadian Pitres.

District 35, ward 5 - None -
