Hi everybody,

I hope you are well.

Can anybody tell me what year the great Alain Froment was born? I couldn’t find that information anywhere…

Thank you so much for your help :slight_smile:

I’m not so much curious about Alain Froments DOB,but more about how would you go about finding a bit of information like that.
If you had his place of birth and a guesstimate of how old he was, would there be some kind of French online census that might have the information ?
Any suggestions?
