Sources edit

Are there no better authoritative sources for her full name, parentage, etc? Even the sources the cited website indicates don't exactly seem of the best quality. The French wikipedia, although identifying her as a member of the Bédat family (and listing her in that article), does not give her parents; this site and others - https://www.altfg.com/film/yvonne-monlaur/ - state her father to be the poet Pierre Bédat de Monlaur, but his French wikipedia article omits any mention of Yvonne. A French article in Le Petit Journal- l'Hebdo local du Gers, of 18 March 2016, details the writings on Lucillus of Pierre Bédat de Monlaur, and states Yvonne to be his daughter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.2.125.55 (talk) 00:03, 6 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

One source explains the mention of Pierre being a count- the Bulletin de la Société archéologique, historique, littéraire & scientifique du Gers, Volume 108, Issues 1-4, already cited in the article, states that aged 21 he (born Bédat) adopted the name of Bédat de Monlaur, his maternal grandmother being Marthe-Caroline d'Escoubès de Monlaur; the head of that family, since the mid-nineteenth century, was entitled 'count'- 'Le chef de la famille d'Escoubés de Monlaur est connu sous le titre de comte depuis le milieu du XIXe siècle'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.2.125.55 (talk) 00:38, 6 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

Her birth place and date need attention, too. The French WP says she was born in Pau in 1935 (not Paris in 1939 as we currently have), citing her birth and death certs. Crisso (talk) 04:21, 25 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
