On June 6, 1891 the Clemens family departed New York for France.  June
20th, they left Paris for Geneva where Susy and Clara were placed in a
boarding school, and apparently the others went on to Annecy, Aix-les-
Bains and finally back to Geneva July 19th.  I'm curious as the Jean's
activities for this month. I have found no mention of her until Clara's
memoirs from their stay in Marienbad. 

"During the latter part of our stay in that charming town, Mother went
to Berlin to look for rooms and took my elder sister with her. Father,
Jean, and our good maid Katie, were left behind."  Jean would be about
11 years old at this time.
