I take it that you are not looking for this person for genealogical reasons - as you would not get far unless you can prove direct descendancy. On a personal level it is equally difficult - No Tino BONJOUR is listed in the French telephone directory. Unfortunately, the name is quite common in France and BMDs have been recorded throughout the country for, not only the period you have given but even recent times - Just to say that there are almost 600 Bonjours listed in the phone book. I can also add that of over 400 Bonjours being researched genealogically the forename Tino does not appear. You said Montons A M - I wonder whether that could be Menton which is a fairly large town in the Alpes Maritime - the furthest S E 'county' on the Med and bordering Italy. Mainly a tourist centre and NO Bonjours have been registered there and none are listed in phone book. Maybe you could get more precise information as to the family from the school in Kent ? Sorry I cannot be of more help to you. |

'I am looking for a Tino Bonjour born 26th January 1926, he went to school with my Dad in Kent in 1932. Not sure where to look for him I have an address of Hotel de Parc, Montons A.M. France in 1932 which is where his Mother was staying at the time. Anyone out there got a clue where I start looking? Maggie |
