Hi,
I just thought I would let you know I was able to obtain the birth certificate of my ancestor Louis Girard whilst I was in Noumea in Feb.
I also have a birth certificate for what another Girard Victor, although he was born too late to be one of my ancestors family but maybe a cousin! The birth cert gave me the birthplace of Louis' Father Emile Girard as St Croix, Vaud, Switzerland so now I am wondering how I can find shipping records, if any exist, that would show when he emigrated from Switzerland to New Caledonia. Geographically I am thinking he may have gone into France and sailed from there around 1860.
You mentioned you had some friends doing genealogy in Noumea. Would you mind sending me one of their emails or asking them if they know if shipping records exist for this period.
Thanks in advance
Theresa
