per a newspaper article [13 APR 1952]:
"..... Hilaire, 17, a student at Pelham Memorial HS ......
"... Adrian, was descended from a Swiss family who has been making boxes since 1825."

Please see my post in New York County about Arthur Alexandre Bornand [1865-1954]

Joseph Camille & "Alexander" Bornand were first cousins:
_ Joseph was the 3rd child of Constant Bornand [1837-] & Julie Martin
_ Arthur Alexandre was the 1st child of Henri Louis Bornand [1830-1867] & Julie Wirtrich née Joseph
Constant & Henri Louis were brothers.
Their sister was Julie Nanette Bornand [1828-1872], who married Ami Paul Bourquin [1820-1875]: they were my great-great-grand parents.
that's all I know. I can use some help.
Very frustating, as the name Bornand is not searchable on the forum.
Many, many, false results of the type:
BORN
AND lived in ....
thanks in advance.
