Hello,
I'm new to the list. I'm looking for informations about Philippe André
WINKELMANN, who was born ~1766 in Hannover. He had a brother,
Louis-Ernest, born ~1767.
That's all I know about Philippe André birth, noted on his death act
in Bordeaux, 15.07.1815 (exactly "natif d'Hanovre"). I don't know if
it means : in the Kingdom of Hannover, or in the city of Hanover.
He married ( 1793 ? where ? I did't find in France) Philippe Marie
CASTAING, (° Bordeaux, 13.09.1775).
Their first child, Henri Frédéric Hévy, (Heinrich Friedrich Hévy ?)
was born 1793-1794, in Germany. I suppose it was in Niedersachsen.
Philippe André lived in Bordeaux, France, from 1795, and was a farmer
and a trader. May be he exported wines.
I know the following story until nowadays... it's my wife's family.
Greetings from Paris,
Jean-Claude Billon
