I checked out the site of Archives départementales de Savoie and saw that there was no English version for it. I know French well, so I thought that if ever you would like to put a translation to your post, let me know - I'll do it gladly.

Thanks for the offer. Maybe sometime. My french is so-so, but much much better than my german or my danish or my swahili ;- )

That's strange because I live in the same aera and that's not so different…
