As always happy for others to correct. Have appreciated the help of joger and Zefiro in the past.

You're right, Zefiro! Thank you! Coupels and Forsdebras. Note however, that the bride signs her name Marie Catherine Forcedebras.

You're right, Zefiro! Thank you! Coupels and Forsdebras. Note however, that the bride signs her name Marie Catherine Forcedebras.

And Forcedebras is the 'official' name, as can be seen in this tree

Thanks, Zefiro, as that also confirms Rambures as the place referred to. I kept seeing Vambury or something similar!
