Rosalie Hortense Graux Birth - French into English
« on: Saturday 13 March 21 20:31 GMT (UK) »
Hello, I was wondering if anyone can help me translate this birth I've found. I believe it's for a Rosalie Hortense Graux. Born to a Denis Victor Graux and Marie Therese Prevot in Chauny, 1822.

I wanted to see is there's anything else of interest in the document.

Hopefully this is the right place, it was between this or Europe.

Thanks for reading.

Quick translation:

The year one thousand eight hundred and twenty-two, the thirteenth of March, one
o’clock in the afternoon; before us, first deputy mayor
of the town of Chauny acting as the public officer for
civil registration appeared Denis Victoire Graux, a locksmith,
living in Chauny, who presented to us a female
child born yesterday at five o’clock in the morning of
Marie Thérèse Prévot, his wife, which child he
declared he was giving the first names of Rosalie Hortense;
the said presentation and declaration took
place in the presence of Louis Graux, a locksmith, and of
François Dermont, also a locksmith, both of full age,
living in Chauny who after reading this entry signed
with us and the informant.

My pleasure.

By the way,I have consulted my dictionary and see that "serrurier" could also be "ironsmith" - perhaps more probable.
