Caudebec in America : $b A record of the descendants of Jacques Caudebec, 1700 to 1920
Cuddeback, William Louis
Caudebec, Jacques, 1664-approximately 1764; Caudebec-en-Caux (France); Cuddeback family
A recent traveller has thus viewed Caudebec as approached from the
sea by river. "Between the great forest of Maulevrier on our left and
the green meadows on our right is the great broad Seine, fringed with
shady arbors and with rows of modest homely hotels. The graceful
church spire dominates the town which is in the midst of rising green
hills. The old Caudebec, one of the oldest of Norman towns, with its
medieval houses, narrow, crooked, ill-paved streets, was built on the
site of the Roman settlement, Lotum and gives unmistakable evidence
of its antiquity. The quaint windows and doorways, the overhanging
and irregular roofs almost against one another are everywhere visible
and are covered with creeping vines and climbing flowering plants."

"A LITTLE THING IS A LITTLE THING, BUT FAITHFULNESS IN LITTLE
THINGS IS A GREAT THING."
MAY SOME MEMBER OF THE FAMILY COMPLETE AND CONTINUE THIS RECORD,
AND MAY THE STERLING WORTH AND CHARACTER OF OUR ANCESTORS ENDURE
THROUGH THE COMING GENERATIONS.
"RIGHT LIVING IN ITS SILENCE IS MORE POWERFUL THAN WORDS, AND
CHARACTER, WHEN TOUCHED, RINGS OUT TRUE SWEET MUSIC."
Port Jervis, N. Y.,
July 4th, 1919
INDEX
[Transcriber's Note: This is William L. Cuddeback's original index
except the numbers after names in this index have been changed from
page numbers. They are now the reference number for the lineage
paragraph(s) in which a person of that name is discussed or a key to
a listing in the table of contents. Again, superscripts are given to
indicate the generation. A question mark in brackets indicates the
entry could not be verified. If a number precedes the [?], there is
a possible, though not exact name in that lineage paragraph.]
