Malaguenos Passenger List

Genealogy of the Malaguenos of New Iberia.

On June 1, 1778 , 16 families from Malaga, Andalusia, Spain boarded the Brig, San Josef, and sailed to New Orleans. Commanded by Lt.Col. Francisco Bouligny, with approval of Governor Bernardo de Gálvez, they founded New Iberia in the Spring of 1779. Note: The initial settlement was at current-day Charenton, LA, but it was moved after the Spring rains flooded the site.
