Sorry, pushed enter too early.

The question is where she was born.

Coertzen (above) says clearly that all 4 kids were born in Berlin. He also tells us on p115 that Francois and a group of Huguenots went to Berlin in 1700 already. So it seems unlikely that the 2nd is born in Languedoc - though not impossible that they went back for a visit, as Languedoc is where her father came from originally.(The mother is Italian however)

@Judith, I can't see so well what kind of document that marriage record is. You are the best one to decide if it might have had an error on it or not. Maybe we will never know which is more correct.
