Perhaps the French Third Republic would be better. :-) On this topic more broadly, as I recall (and something that any French citizen will know), civic records ("état civil", birth, marriage, death certificates, "livret de famille" etc.) are abundant, redundant and sort of foolproof. Moreover, I believe there are church records to corroborate her age (something the article does not mention).

- vidarh 5y agoI'm not sure a lot of people can place the Victorian era very precisely either.
