Please could I have a transcription and translation of the above burial which I located on MyHeritage.

The entry looks very challenging, but the link is as follows:

Many thanks

I can give you 2 burials for the price of one, because the one following Nicolas is that of his wife.

Wow, two for the price of one!

Thank you very much Zefiro. I am amazed at your skill and ability to transcribe and translate such challenging French documents.

I am trying to determine whether Nicolas Defrance is the father of my 5x great grandfather Jean Defrance, along with his children Nicolas and Michel given in his burial record.

If I can find any records, I will try and come back again.

Thank you
