BESSONETT -- How to spell the name?

For more information, visit my website. www.stewartfoxfamilyhistory.com

The earliest spelling I have found of a member of the family is John Besonet, Sr. But, there are several other variations of the name:

Besonet...is the name in France

Bessonett...mostly in Pennsylvania records
Bessonette...mostly in Mississippi records
de Bessonette....mostly in Louisiana records


There is a similar name found in the U.S. ...Bissonet... but that family does not appear to be related to the Bessonett family.
