W. Roberts, in Gard. Chron. ( 3 ) 71s54 (Feb.4* 
1922 ), remarks that in the 18th century the firm 
of Vilmorin-Andrieux absorbed the business of Le 
Febvre, which existed in I 692 on the Quai de la 
ll^gisserie, Paris, as recorded by A. de Pradel 
in "Le Livre Commode des adresses de Paris pour 
1692 ". Le Febvre is also mentioned by Dr. Mar¬ 
tin Lister in his "Journey to Paris ... I 698 ". 
The following, tho undated, is probably one 
of his seed lists.
