Notes
-
The
facts regarding Jehan de Nostredame are taken from Leroy, p.39-42.
It is not clear if these facts are reliable. Leroy took the year of
birth of Jehan from a finding of the French abbot Goujet, who
presented this finding without any reference. Leroy further supposes
that Jehan was baptized in 1522. The supposition that Nostradamus
had two brothers, named Jean, was made by those who compiled the
complementary notes in the 1993-re-issue of Nostradamus - ses
origines, sa vie, son oeuvre.
Benazra's point of view is that it was Jean, born in 1522, who was
baptized in 1522. (Benazra to Van Berkel, January 17; Internet: ramkat.free.fr).

Dr. E. Lhez discovered that
the Jewish name of Pierre de Nostredame was Crescas de Carcassonne;
the name Guy Gassonet was the Jewish name of another Pierre de
Nostredame, who lived in Carpentras. (Benazra to Van Berkel, January
17, 2005: Internet: ramkat.free.fr;
Leroy, p.14 and 23). [tekst]
