=================================
I am seeking information about my great-great-grandfather, John David. He
was born in France in 1840 and he died in Brooklyn, New York in 1915. He
was a ship's carpenter and he married an Irish woman named Julia Cummings.
His death certificate lists his parents as John David and Therese, also both
born in France. Unfortunately, I do not know where in France he was born.
Any suggestions or advice for finding information about his family of origin
in France would be helpful. I seem to have exhausted all the documents for
him in the U.S. (naturalization, censuses, death notices, etc.) but to no
avail. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Kevin David
