E-mail from Lori Millet to Margie Pearce -
I am researching the Millet and Jacob family lines of the German Coast.
I was excited to locate dates on your Chauff and Cambre family page that
pertain to Christian Jacob and Marguerite Mehl. We are aware that this
family was captured trying to flee from religious prosecution (from Alsace
into Germany) and taken as prisoners. They took the option of being sent
to colonize Louisiana over the option of being sentenced to life in the
galleys or in prison. Could you possibly tell me how you obtained the
information on these two people? The birth date (1707) of Marguerite
seems to be appropriate, yet the death date (1843) indicates that she lived to
be over 120 years old.Please send any information that you can so that we can continue to
research this family into France.Lori Millet
