I'm doing a little geneology, and I've discovered some relatives came from a town in France called "Blandfontaine" in the the 1830's.
The problem is - I can't find any such town. Is it possible it was renamed, or I'm missing some nuance of launguage (like "Blandfontaine" could mean "Village of Fontaine")?
