Tips for searching

Use upper or lower case letters, either will do

Use this list of accented letters to cut and paste the é for 'Thé Dansant', for example, or the ê for 'Tête-à-Tête' - à  á  â  ç  è  é  ê  ë  ñ  ô  ü

Use only one of the words in a hyphenated name. For example, use only Tête for 'Tête-à-Tête'
