Pulligny

I told you that my cousin's marriage was held in an old church in Pulligny. I know the correct spelling now and found some information on the web but not in English.

Anyway, there is one story that was told to Jon and me about the town - a legend that an archaeologist has been trying to prove is real. The archaeologist believes that Joan of Arc was not burned at the stake as believed, but instead a young woman was burned in her place. He also believes that Joan of Arc lived the rest of her days in the town of Pulligny and is possibly buried somewhere in this grave yard where my family is pictured below waiting for the bride and groom.
