Thank you for this link, Frank. It makes me want to start digging through the primary sources of this voyage, like you have done with those 19th century whaling expeditions. Maybe someday.
And BTW, here the name is indeed spelled as a single word: Lapérouse.

Attached is a sextant recovered from the presumed wreck site in the Solomons...
There are various web sites covering the recent expeditions to the wrecks. Here's one (where the image came from):
