French place name?
Dear all,
attached is a name of what I believe is a french village. I can make out the following: "bei h? Val??? de Rose" Anybody have any idea what the correct name is? I've tried google but came up empty handed. Thanks in advance, Rudi. Last edited by RudiS; 11th July 2012 at 00:12. |

Re: French place name?
Hi Rudy
I'm french but that does not help! I must admit I can't read the first word and the one after the "h"... Do you have anymore indication to help? Are you sure it's a location? "Valmy" could be the name, but I don't know any place called "Valmy de Rose"...There is a wine called Valmy rosé, though, but I guess that's not what you're looking for... |

Re: French place name?
First is St = saint , Robert seems right, no St Valery de rose/ not even in blue / in France , probably St Valery sur Somme or St Valéry en Caux well known in June 40, the 7 th Panzer took a bath there.

Re: French place name?
Hi Rudi,
Two entries (at least) - but both seem to be in Italy - Bose & Bore... Need to know more if you don't mind. It's up to you... Cheers, Franck. PS: I'm not sure to read a R as first letter... Last edited by ouidjat; 19th July 2010 at 00:59. Reason: Comments |

Re: French place name?
Thanks everyone for your time & effort. Very much appreciated.
The village is definitely in France, not Italy. I guess Remi is right when he suggests probably St Valery sur Somme or St Valéry en Caux. Regards, Rudi. |

Hello
I think that it's a mixed with Saint-Valéry-en-Caux and Veules-les-Roses, only 7km far between those places. Regards |

Re: French place name?
Yes pilot2, I already came to the same conclusion as you. The picture was taken in one of the 2 villages.
Regards, Rudi. |

Re: French place name?
There was a military camp called "Veules-les Roses" near Saint-Valéry-en-Caux.
If it can help... Chris |
