The gentleman pictured below is Jean Jacques Mialocq (1859-1917), my grandfather.
He is the primary reason for this blog and I thank him for the opportunity to find my roots.

Aucun - Home of My Grandmother

Finding Aucun was not easy.  It is one of hundreds of French villages, the ONLY one located in a National Park.  In this case, Aucun is located in Pyrenees National Park, at the southern border of France at the base of the Pyrenees Mountains.  It is very close to Lourdes and many hotels in the Aucun area serve as stopping off points for the millions who travel to Lourdes from around the world seeking its miraculous features.  It is spectacular.  This is where my Grandmother was born and raised.



No wonder Grandma lived to be 99.  She said that her ancestors lived into their 100s and I can see why.  Now we proceed to the place of miracles:  LOURDES.





There is nothing left to say...
