History indeed ... Where was this found??? I suppose being a General he had signed quite a few documents - but preserved this well??

It was posted on one of the New France Facebook pages. Kind of hard to read his name unless you know who it is, but then most cursive signatures are hard to read. A while back I tried to translate an original document from the 18th century written in cursive French. I had some good people helping me, and we never did agree on one word!
