Abstract

Luc Nemeth, A certificate of birth, full of stake : Saint-George, 1745-1799 . The ancient archives of the Baillif, civil parish in Guadeloupe, being incomplete and the illegitimate birth of Saint-George, who was a slave's natural child, account for the vagueness Saint-George's certificate of birth. Indeed he was given three different dates of birth, all being fully-justified. However, concerning his affiliation, living in a society incapable of imagining that a mulatto could be gifted, he was made to be son of an aristocrat. Actually his real father was known in 1972. But there are still attempts to spread confusion.
