    Don Manuel Toledano was a descendant from King Charles V. of Spain. The full name of the Toledano family formerly was Toledano y Veuzuala, but the latter portion of the name, in time, was dropped as a matter of convenience, leaving the family name as it is used at this time, Toledano. This family originally came from Toledo, Spain, but Don Manuel resided in Madrid. He married Josephine De Montanaire, a lady of noble birth. Mr. and Mrs. Don Manuel Toledano became the parents of Christobal Toledano, who married Baselise Barbe, of Toulouse, France.

    Don Manuel was a Spanish officer and occupied many important positions under the Spanish domination, among others that of chief officer of the castoms, department general, royal revenues of the Province of Louisiana.
