I can e-mail you a photograph of Eliza Buffat Truan and her husband Auguste Jules Truan when they were first married. Also--a little over a month ago I heard from a woman named Jennifer who is descended from Eliza's sister Mary (Maria) and she is going to Tennessee this summer to research the Buffats and she wants me to put her in touch with other relatives.
