Description | Renon Magnac, a 66 year old silkweaver, requests to be admitted to the Hospital. He was born in London but his late father, Nicholas Magnac, was originally from Jonzac, in Saintonge. Renon's eyesight became so poor that he had to quit his job as a weaver several years ago and started cleaning shoes instead. However, he is now too unwell to continue. A note in a different hand states that Renon has not been a member of any church for the past forty years. The petition is signed by Pierre Baudry, J Boisson and François Jolit. |
CustodialHistory | The petition is not dated, but was found amongst applications from 1804-1805. |
