Jacque Duprel the third son of Nicolas Duprel and Susanne Gresser was born in Greisch a commune of Septfontaines in the canton of Capellen in the country of Luxembourg. On his birth certificate his father signed his namee N: Dupre'. Jacque named his first three sons Nicolas, and two of his daughters Catherine. He was the bestman / acting father at his sister-in-law Caecillia Mathey, wedding at Steinfort. He was also a witness at his sister-in-law Marie Mathay for her son Jacobus (Jacque) Bour baptismal in 1888 and for her daughter Margarethe Bour in 1889 both in Mamer. On Jacobs (Jacque) baptismal the clerk wrote Jacque Duprel name as Jac Duprelle. Jacque son Nicolas was a witness at the baptismal of Margarethe Bour she was bapitzed 1891 in Mamer, the clerk wrote Nicolas name as Nicolas Duprell. Jacque died in the hospital at Steinfort Luxembourg in 1911. It is not known when the contact between the Duprel's of Greisch and Goeblange stopped. I meet the descendants of Jean Duprel Jacque 5th son they new nothing of the Duprels of Greisch. I also meet with the descendants of Nicolas Duprel born 1875, their answer was the same they new nothing of the Duprels of Greisch. The descendants of Catherine Duprel born 1886 gave me a picture of Catherine when she taught school in Greisch. So at least from that picture we know there was contact.
