Vauchers in South America |
 |
In the 19th century, many Swiss were forced by droughts and famine to emigrate to South America and the Vauchers were no exception. [ Click for details ]
Most Swiss emigrated to Colonies in Argentina, Uruguay ,
and the south of
Brazil [ Click for Maps ].
But the Vauchers followed a different route, being descendants of a single emigrant, Clovis Vaucher who left Cormondrèche, Neuchâtel, in 1861 headed for the Swiss colony of San José, Argentina. However, very soon he moved his family accross the river to Paysandu in Uruguay; and later, some of his descendants migrated North into Brazil.Other index trees:

The information below was gathered about 15 years ago, mainly from Orkut,
an early Social Network run by Google in Brazil from 2008 to 2014 when it was replaced
by Facebook. Where possible, I have replaced
Orkut links by links to Geneanet or Facebook.
