The Months of the Republican Calendar Year With Useful Dates for the French Genealogist Second Edition

This booklet contains thirteen posts from the first seven years of The French Genealogy Blog on the subject of French rural life through the seasons using the months of the Republican calendar and following Eugène LeRoy's l'Année Rustique en Périgord. It follows on our first publication French Genealogy From Afar which explains the basics of French genealogy including a section explaining the Republican Calendar and without which this booklet may seem a bit confusing. Our 2014-2015 Calendar which is no longer available contained historically important dates of interest to the French genealogist. We have added those dates for each month to this booklet.
