Zélim HUMBERT-DROZ (ID #I2398)
(male)
- TITLES/'DIT' NAMES/OCCUPATIONS: watchmaker
- BAPTISM: 29 OCT 1783, La Chaux-de-Fonds, Neuchâtel, Switzerland
- DEATH: abt 1849
Father: Henri Simon HUMBERT-DROZ (bp. 09 MAY 1756)
Mother: Julie JEAN-PETIT-MATILE (bp. 29 OCT 1763)
Family 1
:
Susanne Françoise GOLAY (b. 11 FEB 1797, d. 1849)
- MARRIAGE: 03 FEB 1814, Jefferson Co., Indiana
Scanty notes in Ruth Golay Stoner's David Golay, His Ancestors and Descendants (see p. 407) indicate that he was a watchmaker from La Chaux-de-Fonds whose surname was Humbert, and whose first wife's surname had been Droz. While this is possible, it is more likely that his surname was in fact Humbert-Droz, a compound surname that is well known in the Canton of Neuchâtel. The story about his first wife may be nothing more than a later interpolation to explain his hyphenated name.
The card index at the cantonal archives of Neuchâtel, not necessarily complete, notes a Zélim Humbert-Droz of La Chaux-de-Fonds requesting a passport for the Orient and America, 30 jun 1809. The only corresponding baptism that of Zélime son of Henri Simon Humbert-Droz (son of Moyse) and Julie Jeanpetit-Matille (daughter of Pierre) at La Chaux-de-Fonds, 29 oct 1783. In the 1830 census of Switzerland Co., Indiana, Zelim (indexed by Ancestry.com as Zeller) Humbert is in the 40-49 age category, consistent with this baptism. In the 1820 census, he is in the 26 to 45 age group, again consistent with the baptism.
