Fan Casting Christophe Dominick Duminy de Glapion in Marie Laveau (Biopic)

Christophe Dominick Duminy de Glapion, also known as Louis Christope Dominick Duminy de Glapion, (died c. 1855) was the plaçage husband of the famed Louisiana Voodoo Queen, Marie Laveau. He was a white man of noble French descent. They began their relationship sometime before 1826, after the death of Laveau's first, legal, husband, Jacques Paris, who disappeared (and was presumed dead) not long after their marriage. De Glapion fathered seven children with Laveau, but only two of these, Marie Heloïse Euchariste Glapion (b. 1827) and Marie Philomène Glapion (b. 1836) survived into adulthood. The youngest became Laveau's successor, the also-famed Marie Laveau II.
