  Biography	22 Mar 1867
  Dear Jay, I got new information about the Ruppert family. Are you still interested to open a new chapter on our common ancestor. I suppose you have never heard about the brother of my grand father, (Mathias RUPPERT) born in Oberdonven 20th March 1867. He emigrated to France in 1889 married in 1892 a french demoiselle, Adeline CHEVALIER. Both had 10 children. The eldest of these 10 children was Corneille, Cyprien RUPPERT who married in 1892 Louise Hélène CROIX. They reared 7 children, 6 girls and 1 son. 3 girls emigrated to USA. Before leaving Europe definitely they married US citizens. Officers of the USAF and physicians. In 2008 and 2017, 2 of them died in Florida. They have numerous descendants in USA. I know the names. I visited the tombs of the RUPPERT in Deuil-la-Barre and Enghien-les-Bains (département du Val d'Oise n° 95), this year in May 2017 and had the opportunity to meet for the first time a cousin of mine Liliane CLOAREC-RUPPERT in Taverny, Val d'Oise. She is 84 still alert but suffering from invalidating rhumathism since 3 months and quite desperate. Her father was Albert RUPPERT son of Mathias RUPPERT. Furthermore a son of Mathias RUPPERT, Alexis, Paul, Augustin RUPPERT born in 1896 became a hero of the french army during the 1st WW. He got the highest french decorations for his "bravoure au combat". These are la "Croix de Guerre" and the "Médaille militaire". He was a 1st class soldier of the 163rd french Infantry Division. This division was honored by a special monument in Vignes-sur-Meuse département de la Meuse N° 55) and battled up to the last minute in the 1st WW. He married after the 1st WW a demoiselle whose name is Henriette Jeannette EHRE probably with Luxembourg roots. Unfortunately Alexis died in 1937 a an early age. In a week-time I am going to visit Verdun and the "Route Sacrée" once again. Centennial commemoration. Best greetings. From Raymond Ruppert Oct 30, 2017 ruppert.raymond@gmail.com
