Alien Arrival-document deciphering
« on: Sunday 19 February 12 18:53 GMT (UK) »
Hello All,

I am trying to work out exactly where Francois Joseph Marais was native of. According to his alien arrival form he is native of Clemmburg-but an internet search makes me doubt this is a place!

I am unable to decipher the handwriting and wonder if anybody could please help translate what it says!

Kind Regards

Colleen

Chambrecy perhaps?

Thanks Adrian.

It certainly seems more Chambrecy than Clemmburg!! :)
