Hi, Based on comments by Isabel I have removed the commentary I inserted on the Degruy web site under the Death Certificate for François Verloin DeGruy to read as follows: "This is the death certificate of François Verloin Degruy who died 2 October 1901 at the age of 62. It looks like he lived at 1129 Baronne [did I spell Baronne right? Can't read the handwriting on record] Street. Orleans Deaths Volume 125 Page 1138." The reason I have withdrawn that information is that we need to get some confusions straightened out before information is placed on web site. For example: ---------------------- Note on the web site that we have records for 2 different François Degruys, one dying in 1900 and one dying in 1901. We have to be sure we know who is who and which is which before we insert additional information. ........ Following is my transcription of some notes given to me by David..... These notes are typed in a script style and David's handwriting is superimposed over many of the names and dates in his effort to correct them. I am not sure where the typed version came from, but I will ask David next time I talk with him; however, a note on top says: "My Uncle wrote this. He has his father dead before He married his mother. I did it over. David".... now this may be David's "Uncle Frank," but I need to verify. Whoever he was this "Uncle" must have had something wrong with typewriter because every time he writes "children", it comes out "childred" Again, I am submitting this to Degruy-L..... for discussion or for you to check with your records, but not putting anything on the web site until it is supported by "records" Page begins: Verloin de Gruy (Francois Verloin deGruy -- down to six generations -- to April 1966) [Francois: crossed out and Joseph inserted to read: Joseph Verloin deGruy married Heloise Saulet.
