Familie Jassoy

Invitation

Dear Jassoys and relatives,

We cordially invite you to the first reunion of the descendents of the Jassoy family on September 25-26, 2009 in Hanau, Germany.

Based on the book “Unsere hugenottischen Vorfahren” (Our Huguenot Ancestors) written by August Jassoy of Frankfurt, Germany, and published in 1908, all living Jassoys are descendents of a family living in Metz, France, for two hundred years until they had to leave the country. The Jassoys came first to Hanau at around 1700.

We have prepared a little program that you may find below. Please let us know if you are interested in the reunion and would like to attend ASAP, so that we can plan and organize in more detail.
