My great-aunt, sister of "Bonne-Maman"

My great aunt, "Tété" was born on 20 January 1884 in Sèvres, the last of five Feige children and six years younger than my grandmother.
She first got married on February 1, 1905 with Georges BIDEL, a Norman and a polytechnician of the same class 1894 as my grandfather. Louis CORDELLEHe was an engineer in the Mines du Nord de la France. 
They had two daughters Yvonne (1905) and Gillette (1907), my father's first cousins.
           Yvonne ("Tante Yvonne") In 1940, they married André LIEBAUT, an engineer and thermodynamics professor at the Ecole Centrale. They had 2 boys, Jean-François and Jean-Yves, and 3 grandchildren of the first. We often went to visit the Liébaut in their villa in Perreux in the 1940s. I remember an affectionate aunt, very big, loving the patisserie and the good cuisine.
           Gillette married Guy JENNY, they had 7 children and many grandchildren, and we went to their house in Rueil.
They were going to spend a holiday in Agon-Coutinville. document on his holiday memories.Guy Jenny left amateur films in black and white, shot between 1933 and 1950, which were recently passed on VHS by her children, then digitized, reassembled and sounded in 2003 with the help of the Margottat. These films show the children Jenny and Dupuis and the marriage Liébaut.
Two years after Gillette was born, Georges BIDEL was accidentally killed in the coal mine in Bruay-en-Artois (stone falls, I believe).

After the 14-18 war, Therese remarried with Pierre DUPUIS who had been in the Great War in the infantry. Friend of the family for a long time, Pierre had waited for the end of the war to get married.
