    3. All these variations appear to be for the same person and are listed in various sections of the church records where I found the birth of her four children. She was born (date unknown) in Mousson, Lisle (Lille) France and died between 1678 and 1685 - possibly in Mannheim. She was married to JEAN DOURDY, who was born 1638 at Mons le Borinage, Hainaut (Belgium). They had four children from 1669 to 1678, when presumably Marie died. Jean then married Catherine DU PONT and they went to Strasburg, Ückermark, Brandenburg and Jean later married again - this time to Erdmuth BROMBART. Of the four children born to Marie and Jean I have Salomon Dourdy born 13 Feb 1669 Jehan Dourdy born 13 Apr 1671 Marie Dourdy born 30 Aug 1673 Jacques Dourdy born 19 Jun 1678 Jehan married an Agnes Habich born 1670 Heidelberg. Marie was born Leiden Holland and married Pierre Roge(r) born 1658 at Quaregnon, nr Wasmes, Belg-Hennegau. My connection is through this line as Marie and Pierre Roge's daughter Marie Magdelaine born 1702 Strasburg married 23 Jan 1727 Francois Henry CASTILLION born 27 Feb 1702 Berlin. His father's name was Marc Castillon born 1665 in Languedoc and he was married to Peronne JINIER/JUNIER/JINIEZ, who was born about 1667 in Nion, Switzerland. Would anyone be able to help me with addresses where to write to these places to see if the church records still exist in France and Nion, Switzerland. All in all I am related to quite a lot of Huguenots who came to live in the Ückermark. Sincerely Kay Gassan
