Well, now you've made 3 posts you can use the PM system and send a personal message to bnewt if you wish.
Just go to one of the posts he/she made and click on the little symbol on LHS which I think is supposed to look like a person  :) and you get to the profile and on the LHS under the name there is a line 'Send PM' to click and off you go.

Cheers

Hi all - discovered this thread a while back and as a ggson of Gille also interested. My cousin has a Fontaine family bible which shows the baby who died soon after birth (11 July 1867) was to have been called Jeanette. Also may be of interest that the family believe Gille operated a boxing and fencing school in Dalby.

Wow that is really cool, would be interested in what information you have. I knew there was a baby that died soon after birth, although no record of a possible name. I have a little information but he seems to be very elusive. Not many of the Fontaine's on my side are still living just my grandfather and his sister.

Danielle, I don't have a lot more than in this string. However, have been trying to find parents of Louis and Marie on arch.arch.be, but not sure yet. One thing I did find in English census records of 1861 was a Lucy Smoothey age 66 (most likely Mary Ann's mum) living as a nurse to Joseph and Mary Kimpton and family. Kimptons appear to have been well off ,living at 10 and 11 Old Kent Rd,Lambeth, Camberwell. Joseph shown as "freeholder and fundholder".  Seiey(Lucy) married to William Henry Unwin 9 Oct 1840 at St Mary's,Whitechapel, Tower Hamlets.

Yes the Arch.arch.be website is a great site for Fontaine research. I havent looked too much at the English records. I only have a date of death for Mary Ann's mother also a possible other name of Seiey too I thought maybe maiden name, but haven't looked into it yet. but no first name.  Interesting you have she is married to a William Henry (I know it was a common name), but I also have a William Henry Luke Rider as Mary Ann's husband. Where does your family tree go after Gille??

For Louis Fontaine I have down father as Louis snr. and mother Dubois Marie Catherine
Curious do you have any other names of siblings for Gille and Louis Joseph? I know there is at least another sister, I have had a break from research while I finished my course so only just getting back into it now, and this is where I have started to try and find the siblings names (and confirm them).

Hallot Marie Josphe Francoise Hannon I have father down as Hallot Theodore Hannon & mother as Sacre Marie Charlotte (currently havent found a surname).

Danielle,Agree that Louie's dad probably Louie snr (dates need checking) and mum Marie Catherine Dubois. Also parents of Marie Joseph Hallot I have as Theodore Hallot and Marie Charlotte Sacre (Hallot and Sacre are surnames, I believe. Mothers name appears to be mispelled on Gille's birth cert. I have no sibling names. My line is through Gille's dtr Emma Mabel.
