I am also in need of a translation. From the year 1556, Moutier: "la vacherie Starck". Could this be a place of employment, possibly something like a dairy or dairy farm? Vacherie in modern terms translates as "nasty trick" which makes no sense in this context. My surnames are: Schaffter, Amiet, Saucy, Heche & Sauvain from Moutier Grandval, Roche & Eschert. Guerne and Voirol from Tavannes. Many thanks, Joy Schaffter Wengerd
