in reply to a message by "Bagpus"
Could Portsch come from Portius, the male form of Portia?

Attn Miss Claire
Just to say thank you, and for your thoughts on Degas.
I have now established that the the person had in fact taken his name from the artist (Edgar)Degas, although i believe that was not the artist real name. So is Degas is real or made up name by the artist?
Can you help with the first element in these French place names?
All in Normandy:- Benouville, Ranville and a French surname Gondree?
Regards Bagpus!
