History Of Bach Bailly Charlier M Bille Family

The History of the Bach-Bailly-Charlier-Mébille Family starts in the late 1600s and covers the family's growth and movement in the eastern part of France and the Netherlands. The nine-generation saga is a story of hard working peasant people influenced by the political changes that swept across Europe until their emigration after World War II.
