Hi Lucie
Thanks for your response. First, can you access geneanet.org at all. It is a French genealogy site similar to ancestry.com. I am not financial with this website.
Some public trees on it have similar records on the QUOD family born Villeneuve la Comptal and Castelnaudary in southern France. I am looking for
Jean Francois QUOD born 1832 at V la C, (family tree Mazafran,Uoed)
Cecile Quod ? maybe his sister.
Antoine Quod born 1799 V la c. (dchazal family tree)maybe?
My ancestors moved to Algeria about 1860.
Jean Francois Quod married Frederique Kerth in 1864 in Boufarik in Algeria. They appear to have had several children - Leon Francois, Margueritte, Frederik Constant (my grandfather), Francois Eugene, Jules, Felix, Adoulph,and Jeanne-Marie between 1864 and 1885.
Frederik Constant married Josephine Wolkringer in 1896 in La Chiffa, Algeria. They had three children before migrating to Australia - Marie Frederique 1897, Raoul Constant 1899 and Edouard Jules 1904. They had four more children in Australia. My research of Algerian information is limited. Can you find anything on these families? My email is <

There are tow other siblings of my grandmothers - Marie Eugene Wolkringer and another who married Edourd HAUCK in Boufarik and Moustapha.
There was a cousin of my grandfather's, FC QUOD in Castnaudary who was alive in 1938 but the only information on him is a name Besson and he and his wife had a shop in Castelnaudary. Maybe family trees with references to QUOD in Castnaudary maybe been related to me.
I am Australian and my father was the second youngest child of Frederik Constant Quod ( 1870 - 1950) and Josephine Wolkringer (1877 - 1946) - born in Proserpine, Queensland, Australia.
Another relative escaped Algeria in 1962 to Avignon - Roger Leroux - born abt 1920 - 25 in Boufarik maybe and appears to have died in the early 1990s in Avignn, Fr.
Any help will be gratefully accepted.
Thanks
Carol
