I'm sorry for being so late to send my message concerning the Nina Rattner
Gelbart's book "The king's midwife".
Jacques GELIS (a French author) has written a book in 1988 "La sage-femme ou
le médecin - une nouvelle conception de la vie" (The midwife or the doctor -
a new concept of life). In his book he wrote a lot about Madame Du Coudray,
her life, her work, her mission. He mentioned her complete name, her date of
birth and her several journeys across France.
Among the Frenchspeaking miwifes Madame Du Coudray is well known. All the
data concerning this wonderful woman are available in "les Archives
Nationales in Paris - France".
Hereby you will find the complete data concerning the Jacques Gélis' book :
