[teragram31510]

I'd say "born of Marie Magdelaine xxxxxx and an unknown father" which simply implies illegitimacy.

"les oeuvres ", or "l'oeuvre de chair"  is an ancient way of saying sexual act

Reference to Marie Jeanne Bertolle married (or engaged?) to Marie Antoine Retourné.

1752 so 24 years before your document.

Good find manukarik!
permission to 'fiancer et marier', so engaged and married

Here the name is written Retourné. With this in mind I now can read the name as 'Retourner' in the original post.

Thanks everyone.

Here is Antoine's signature from the marriage entry in the Montreuil register, which talks of
'le certificat de bans et le consentement de Monseiur petit curé
de Rue signé de Monseiur Seclier'

and
'ont recu de moy La benediction Nuptiate'.

Nicely sewn up.
