The document names both parties to the marriage, and gives the names of Silvestre's parents as Antoine Rachal and Marie Louise Dumoine (a mistake in the record, her surname was actually Lemoine). Marie Rose is named as the daughter of Pierre Michel and Cecile Dupre. Both Silvestre and Marie Rose's signatures appear on the document. Both sets of parents are present as well, but unlike their children they all signed with a mark, signifying that none were literate.
Silvestre and Marie Rose had at least six children, and three of these I have been able to trace into adulthood. Interestingly one of the witness signatures on their marriage document is that of "P. Compere"; this is Pierre Sebastien Compere, a Bordeaux native whose daughter Anais would marry Silvestre and Marie Rose's son Cyriaque nearly 25 years later. Further tangling the branches of the family tree, Pierre was also the previously mentioned Julien Rachal's son in law, having married Julien's daughter Lolette earlier that year (1813).
Silvestre was said to have been among the citizens killed during a rash of duels that broke out following the Bossier-Gaiennie duel that took place in 1839. His succession was proved in 1844, so he certainly had died before then.
