[ANSTHRLD] Dinner and a Device

[Jann Mays]

Hey Richard!

The dinner sounds interesting!  In the meantime, I do research for the CoH on
French naming practices.  I have the Dauzat (in French) for French names.  The
foreward is full of gems as well on locatives, matry/patrynymics, and
sobriquets (descriptives).  You may email or call me anytime if you have a
question on a French name for someone.

Also, Master Robin of Gilwell is Steppes Herald (again) and would like to have
people over for his 'Kindergarten of Heralds,' as he did in the past, for those
new heralds, or gentles who would like to know more about heraldry.  You might
want to speak with him on his next meeting.  I forget what day of the month it
is.  I just remember that last time was a Monday and I missed it.  I think
Mondays are difficult to remember.  You can reach him here.
