About 6 weeks ago I subscribed to tell folks about a great web site I found:World Biographical Index at: http://www.saur-wbi.de/ You can put in a last name and see a list of people as diverse as clergy, fishermen, artists etc. I entered the names I wanted to research : TOUCHARD & DEDE. Gots lots of information on TOUCHARD ancestors including - Christophe Touchard 1592-1627, Libraine, relieur. Source: Renouard Thoinan, Phillippe Renoud: Imprimeurs parisiens, libraries, fonders de caractores etc. Archive ABF I, Pierre Toucahrd 1621 - relieur. Ernest Thoinan - Les Relieurs Francois 1500-1800. Paris 1893 Archive ABF I This information was never published and I can only think that it was lost. Otherwise it was unwanted information. Perhaps a second try will bring success? Its an exceptional research site. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
