From 1893 to 1896, Eugene Hausermann, who had been an engineer at the Ecole Centrale, entered the company of Public Works Hersent and worked there on coal deposits around the old Littry mines. These mines, which had been operating since 1750, had been closed for lack of profitability since 1880, but specialists in the French mining administration thought that new surveys could discover exploitable deposits.
This was not the case, but the shortages of the 1939-45 War and its consequences led to the redevelopment of the Norman mines between 1946 and 1950 (see the currently open Museum of the Mine of Littry).
It was during this Norman stay that Eugene Hausermann married
- Marguerite George. circumstances (page 49) are indicated on the previous page.
It seems that the young couple settled in a house in Sainte-Marguerite d'Elle (perhaps near Lison station), where was born in 1896 their first child, Suzanne, future "Tante Suzon".
The hunting permit of Eugene, No. 717 , signed of the Sub-Prefect of Bayeux on October 22, 1896, was retained.
