Dear fellow Cutts researcher, I saw your message on the list and as I do not know where to find Pair, France, wonder if this is in the Calais or Lille areas? We do know that a John Cutts from Nottingham went over to France at the time of Napoleonic Wars taking with him one of the first mechanical lace-making machines... Can you send more details - I know a lady who is researching the Notts=Calais=Australia lacemaking links. I am also in touch with another American lady researching a Cutts family connected with the above and she has a Catherine in her family!!! We mightall be able to help each other. Regards, Mavis,
