Viv,

You are ahead of many, as you have names, dates, and the all important places. Can you read French? The archives of Finistère, where Brest is located, are not yet online, but those of Var (Toulon) are:

I just did a quick search and found Laurent Richard Mazet's birth. I'll send you a screen shot.

My great-great-grandmother (Elisa Cesrarine Mazet born in Brest c1849) was french. Her father was Laurent Richard Mazet(b Toulon, Var in 12/4/1821, Captain in the French Navy) and her mothers first name was Angeline(b Brest c 1829 ). I am trying to find birth, marriage records for Laurent and Angeline, and birth and death records for Elisa. Any MAZET family history would be useful.
