Hi Jeanne and Jackie,

I got automated notifications of your recent postings on this message board. It is so strange to hear you talk about familiar places and names from far away, in space and time.
I know Escot and Eysus. My family comes from Osse-en-Aspe, a mile away from Lourdios. When I was a kid, our family walks in Pau would bring us near the Arnautou jewelry store, where my father had bought my mother's engagement ring. She would tell me the story over and over in front of the window panes, how shy and uncomfortable he was about the whole business after over 7 years in Indochina. are your Arnautou from Pau? The jewelry store still exists today. Some of my ancestors had relatives connected with the Labrucherie. Some of their descendants are now famous in Argentina. By the way, do you know what the surname means in Bearnese?
All the best,
Jean-Luc
