[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 655053, member: 5833"]That would be fun. (For those who took German in high school, 'mouche' is French for 'fly', the insect.) However, I can find enough ups & downs in all the signatures to make 'ou' or 'oc', but not enough to make 'ouc'. The cameo that goes with the first signature is one of those 'woman standing in country scene' ones & is no doubt Italian. The cameos that go with the other signature may well have been made in France, although of course this does not rule out an Italian name. 'Mouhe' is not outside the realm of possibility for the second one: [URL]https://www.ancestry.com/search/categories/35/?name=_Mouhe&name_x=1_1[/URL][/QUOTE]
