    3. Dear HugWalls In response to Andrea's recent message, I should like to say that I am extremely interested in a number of people who either stayed in or passed through Geneva in the course of their careers. Over the years I have done quite a bit of work in the State Archives in Geneva and have always found the staff very helpful and the records very easy to use. One of the archivist told me that the baptismal and a number of other records have been filmed by the LDS. As I have never had occasion to order them, I am afraid I do not know the film numbers. I'm sorry, I don't know when or if I shall ever get back to Geneva so I can't offer look-ups there but I do have a copy of the Livre des Habitants, transcribed and indexed by Perrenoud and Perrin (no 7 on Andrea's list). This lists in date order 1684-1792, denizens of Geneva (not necessarily Huguenot) and gives their place of origin, father's name, occupation and whether accompanied by any male children (no females included). If anybody thinks their family might have gone to Geneva and stayed for a generation or two I would be happy to look.
